First Principle of Nation Building - Suggestions to PM Lee
-
A society is a collection of individuals. Individuals have needs, desires and many aspirations. These various needs and demands of individuals create competitions and conflicts.
There were wars between nations so were conflicts between individuals. In governing a country, if leaders start to deviate from such first principle, what will happen to the country?
Because of such conflicts the first principle in nation building should be to define a system of law based on justice and equity to prevent such conflicts from causing lawlessness and instability.
For too many years our national leaders have forsaken morality, values like Justice and Equity and belittle them in favor of pragmatism. They have overzealously focused all their attention on making monies for themselves and government from foul means resulting in many problems to the people and whole society.They are not interested in serving the majority interests of the people in such areas but keep using their power to pass laws and give themselves more monies and more power.They have failed to see the bigger picture of nation building. Instead of bringing up a society with values like justice, equity, duty to serve the country, all that they are interested is to make money, money and more money for themselves and the government so that the government will be able to do anything it likes to serve its own interest and glory and its many hidden agenda. Many wrong doings like the Shin Corp and NKF remain unanswered. Civil servants are getting from bad to worse refusing to help people in need with more red tapes and bureaucracy. Many such examples of departments insisting on implementing unfair rules and regulations despite clearly deserving circumstances were recently given again and again to no end.
All our leaders are interested in is to give themselves more salaries, many months of bonuses and power.
They do not bother with lowering the costs of living affecting majority of citizens due to their wrongful increase of GST and fees under the wrong policy of taxing and avoiding spending on services and hoarding of such people's monies and claim success.
We the citizens of Singapore therefore will have to check on such a government to stop their wrong doings and will have to stay united to uphold morality, justice, equity among the people and bring in new leaders who understand and practise such morality justice and equity which are the first principle of nation building long compromised.
So to all immoral ministers this is another reminder, do not take people for granted. They are not that stupid.
They can see the right and wrong in whatever they are doing. In the next cabinet reshuffle we would like to see new types of leaders for our onward nation building.
Those who always give a false impression of talent or leadership by boast and false pretences will be exposed eventually by the people. Signs of such moral defects and falsehoods include constant talks about government success ignoring problems faced by people. Immoral increases using their power of their own salaries. Portraying an impression of their own talents which are not for them to judge but the people themselves as people pay their salaries and bonuses and give them the opportunity to serve the country not for them to become arrogant and demand respect for abuses and legal corruptions.
Especially ministers who constantly about giving "no free lunch to others but easy taking of monies from the public for themselves" so as to keep increasing taxes, fees and make profits or hoard monies will be hated by the people. They should be shuffled out if PM Lee wants to do the right thing to correct the many big mistakes of his predecessors.

I would not bet on LHL on being the PM for the next 5 years, as he implied so himself. The more worrying question is who will be the PAP sucessor and the end of the Lee Dynasty.
Scarly WKS become PM.
