Want to talk to Li Hongyi? C'mon right in! He wants to talk to you too.
Q: As a Deputy Director with GovTech, how would you describe your typical workday?
HY: There are five main tranches to my work: developing products, getting internal people on board, getting users on board, project management and talking to your people one on one to make sure they’re developing.
The core work is figuring out how to develop products. This involves everything that goes with software engineering and product design – talking to users, figuring out user interface design, figuring out software architecture, and the actual writing of the code.
The second part is working the bureaucracy. The government has to account for public monies so there are processes to clear before you can push out a product. If it were a normal tech company, you could build a product and say “Here you go” and it would be pushed out. It’s not like that here. You’ve got to clear internal processes, and get people on board – and because not everyone has the same understanding of what is good, you need to spend some time convincing people of your idea. This is true in any organisation – especially so here.
The third part is figuring out your user strategy. With the product and internal stakeholders settled, now you need to get your external stakeholders on board. For Parking.sg, it’s about identifying your key user groups and figuring out how to engage them. For Data.gov.sg, it’s about figuring out who the people who care about data are in Singapore and reaching out to them to get them to use your product. For Forms.sg, it’s about trying to identify users in government agencies. A product – no matter how well-built – if not used, is nonexistent.
These are the three main chunks of work necessary to get a product out to the public, and then you have running the team itself, which involves two main things. The first is basic project management: keeping track of what needs to be done, keeping everyone informed of what’s happening, and trying not to be too heavy-handed. The next is making sure that the interests of the people on your team are being taken care of, that their careers are being developed, and that they don’t feel blocked in their work.

Is Vivian Balakrishnan's re-election into the new PAP CEC a dress rehearsal for his appointment as Lee's Kingmaker?
Word from the grapevine is that he has been mentoring Li Hongyi to be a potential candidate under the Holland-Bukit Timah GRC, and thereafter spearhead a PR campaign to catapult Li to the upper echelons of the PAP leadership. Simultaneously, Lee Hsien Loong is expected to say that he played no part in his son's decision to enter politics.
This orchestra will start performing in 2019 or 2020.
Lawsuits against accusations of nepotism may fly in all directions.

Because he was PPS to Harry Lee?
If this is true, it would be great news!

You want to see Heng roll on the floor in spasm again? Thanks but no thanks. Singapore will be safer with a top SAF scholar with military experience at the helm.
Fake scholar idiot. General who is a loser.
I wouldn't bet on the part on a longer life... I wish him all the best nevertheless
Did somebody reported that all these took just TWO days to complete and perfect?
Wow! Is that true?
