One certainly hopes that this whole exercise will not be a one-off consultation exercise, I certainly hope this will be an on-going conversation."

We...Nary a word on the housing proposal by the SDP. We do not expect the government to accept the suggestions, not without due diligence, but if the government is sincere in wanting the people and various groups in society to come forth and make constructive suggestions and take ownership to improve Singapore, the least the government can do is to send the signal that it appreciates the effort by people to do so. Just imagine your boss telling the whole organisation that he welcomes feedback and yet any suggestion put forth gets the cold treatment. Action speaks louder than words; a poor track record amplifies and so the incumbent better be more on the ball to put itself on even weaker footing.sgcynicnoreply@blogger.com
