What has the government done to make
our society a better place to live in now?
1)
The
government has not been corrupt so people are satisfied with the government and
there aren’t any riots and demonstrations in the country.
2)
The
government has conserved land for parks and for recreational purposes which
encourages the people to enjoy outdoor life instead of staying in the office,
Singapore now being a ‘Garden City’ is a pleasant place for people to live in.
3)
The
government has ensured that all contagious diseases and viruses are kept out of
the country by having strict policies about people coming in a leaving the
country during H1N1 for example. This prevents Singapore from being an “unclean”
country, thus making Singapore a safer and better place to live in.
4)
Singapore
being a multi-religious and multi-racial country has many different festivals.
The government has taken all these festivals seriously and with an open-heart. The
government has set a good example of having racial harmony and learning to
accept people of different backgrounds and ethnicity. Thus people live
harmoniously together.
5)
The
government ensures that the law is put to place and taken seriously.
6)
The
government has ensured that healthcare environment is clean, efficient and safe
for people to enjoy the best healthcare.

ReplyDeleteHi Inez! I'm curious of some of the effort the government is making to find out more about what Singaporeans want? Cedar has the "focus group discussion" to find out what problems cedarians are faacing and the school will try to work on it. Likewise, what is the government doing to find out more from Singapore? :) thanks!

If the government has done so much for our country, why are people beginning to give them lesser votes in the elections? Why has their support diminished now? For eg, in the recent general elections, the results showed that it only achieved a 60.14%, which was its lowest since independence.

The younger generation feel that the PAP style of governing is too topdown. They government makes laws without properly consulting the people.
