Guiding Principles

A stake for everyone, oppotunities for all

For example, minority groups are also given a say in governance through GRC system.

By practicing multi-racialism, we enjoy religious freedom and use four official languages.

No community is disadvantaged or favoured by and government policy.

Every community is treated fairly in Singapore so that the interests of the various communities are kept in balance.

Every citizen willl have a say in decision-making to develop the people's sense of belonging to the country.

Anticipate change and stay relevant

For example, some decisions are made in anticipation of the future, like NEWater, intergrated resorts and taking risks.

The government has to be open to new ideas and be willing to take risks.

Hence, the leaders must have foresight, vision and imagination to come up with the right policies.

It is important to plan ahead to meet the future needs.

Leaders need to be forward-looking.

Reward for work and work for reward

Meritocracy ensures that there will always be talents and transparency will help to encourage openness

For example, surplus from Singapore's growth has also been shared amongst all through the Pgress Package.

Meritocracy help to give everyone an equal opprtunity to achieve their best and be rewarded, regardless of race, religion and socioeconomic background.

When people are rewarded based on their abilities and hard work, they are encouraged to do well.

Meritocracy rewards hard work and so, the brightest and the best will be rewarded.

Leadership is key

Our leaders must be incorruptible so as to win the confidence and respect of the people.

Besides talent and ability, leaders are also selected based on their good character.

Potential leaders are specially selected and groomed.

These leaders must have moral courage and integrity to do what is right and not what is popular with the people.

Honest and capable leaders are needed to maintain stability in goverment and to make the right decision for the country.
