SINGAPORE: The ruling People's Action Party's (PAP)
Secretary General and Singapore's Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong
said the government is about making choices and tradeoffs and the
ongoing sessions of the National Conversation are important in this
process.
Wrapping up the party's seminar, which was held as
part of the National Conversation, Mr Lee said it is important for
the party to think hard about what the country will be like in the
next 20 to 30 years, especially in the context of an ever-changing
global environment.
Mr Lee said the PAP has to remain the dominant party
in the country and to engage the views of Singaporeans who form the
middle ground.
As part of the seminar, teams from the different districts of the
party made presentations on several topical issues, with Mr Lee
summing up their presentations.
