4G leaders will work with Singaporeans to design, implement public policies: DPM Heng

SINGAPORE: The Government intends to partner Singaporeans to design and implement policies on areas such as housing, social mobility and environmental sustainability, Deputy Prime Minister Heng Swee Keat said on Saturday , as he detailed how the country's fourth generation of leaders intends to have a new social compact with its citizens.

Additionally, Minister for Social and Family Development Desmond Lee and Education Minister Ong Ye Kung will lead their respective teams to work with community groups to support the disadvantaged and give them a good start in life, Mr Heng elaborated.

He noted that many Singaporeans today want to play a bigger part in nation-building, not just in contributing ideas but also to shape the shared future. But to do so effectively, there is a need to enlarge and safeguard the common space and build trust among communities. One of these is how to remain a resilient nation in the face of major developments around the world like climate change, while another is how to remain a city of possibilities - harnessing technology and building a place where “sports, arts, culture and heritage can flourish”.

“We will listen to your views and explore together what the Government can do, what each of you can do, and how we can create partnerships to take good ideas forward.”“The best way to win trust is to first trust you with the truth - no matter how hard or unpopular,” Mr Heng said.

Mr Heng said what he had outlined will not be a short-term project but the “work of a generation” as they cannot expect partnerships to happen overnight in every policy domain.

The governing of Singapore cannot be the sole premise of the PAP. Good to know that they are involving Singaporeans, hopefully only those who can think and not those who make demands for their selfish gains. Can they filter and tell the difference? Wisdom.
