Will the leadership of the Ruling Party allow any latitude for the
Scholars to exercise initiative and implement fresh ideas in the
areas that you have mentioned :
(1) Upgrade the system of government to pro-active and
pro-people system.
Is there any benefits to the Ruling
Party by improving from the present status quo - which allows the
Ruling Party to dictate to Singaporeans ?
Will the Ruling Party allow this to happen ?
At what cost will this be to the Ruling Party ?
(2) Restructure the moribund pro-foreign economic
management to self-reliant entrepreneurial, value-adding and
creative mass participation in practical knowledge
applications.
Allowing this to happen, is to admit
that their policy has been wrong since the early industrialization
program of the 1960's that is heavily dependent on foreign
MNCs.
(3) Technology start-ups to create new generations of
jobs.
Will the Ruling Party allow a new
generation of Technology Start-ups to be in the hands of Private
Enterprise - which basically leave the Government Owned Companies
without any stake in the future of High Tech Businesses that
contribute to Temasek Holdings ?
(4) Swiss standard of living.
GCT's dream of the "Swiss Standard
of Living" was only a mere convenient pipedream worked around a
coined political slogan.
What will be the cost to Singaporeans in achieving a Swiss Standard
of Living ?
A similar Swiss COST of Living to accompany this Swiss STANDARD of
Living ?
Do we need this Swiss Standard of Living - when the bulk of the
tertiary educated that form the future Middle Class (hopefully ?)
is in debt for their entire Working Life ?
Can it be achievable when the meagre pay of a tertiary educated
person is spent on - repaying their education loands to their
parent's CPF account, paying for a preferred Swiss Standard of
Living of owning a HOME built according to Standard COMPARABLE to
the Swiss - (with a car included, clothings, lifestyle expenses)
?
(5) Vibrant and socially active citizenry supportive of one
another.
Is this not reminiscent to the
Gracious Living concept propounded by GCT ?
What has happened to it, when Singaporeans jump Q to be first in
line for anything that is FREE, or to beat the crowd in the rat
race to get to the front of the line - alia the Traffic Condition
at the Causeway or Tuas check points ?
