MM Lee has recently said that Singapore cannot develop its own culture for another 100 or 200 years !!!
Citizens should recognize what are good policies and good government and know the importance of supporting one another and be cohesive in upholding such policies as a group.
A certain common value system hopefully will eventually grow out os these among the people which no doubt will evolve into their collective consciousness as a people and culture.
Such a movement among the masses will lead to the biggest gain of all. For example, Japanese culture is cohesive and they move as a group for whatever is good which are easily recognised by them even without long postings or ranting. Why ?
It is critical that citizens should on their own grow in their political consciousness and culture and value system. Without this evolvement, all that we will become will be a loose bunch of people each trying to outwit and outbeat one another.
Common values include passion to uphold objectivity, mass participation in process of government, equity and fair-play for the sake of future progress and prosperity.
