  • "Ownself check ownself" is a virtue, otherwise the Government cannot be accountable to the public, said Health Minister Ong Ye Kung
  • The phrase was originally coined by Workers' Party chief Pritam Singh in 2015
  • Mr Ong was responding to a question asked at a Institute of Policy Studies conference on Thursday
  • Besides having institutions and a neutral civil service to ensure accountability, having an opposition presence in Parliament also helps to surface alternative views, he said
  • Nevertheless, Mr Ong does not believe a two-party system will happen in Singapore given its small size
