4G leaders will not slay sacred cows for the sake of it, said Mr Lawrence Wong

[drdoof]

SINGAPORE: The fourth-generation leadership is willing to slay sacred cows in relooking its governing assumptions alongside society's changing needs and expectations, but will not do so for the sake of it, said Mr Lawrence Wong.

Speaking to the media ahead of his May 15 swearing-in as Singapore's next Prime Minister, Mr Wong said his team will adopt a more consultative approach to policy-making, but will at times have to make unpopular decisions that it deems necessary for the country.

In such instances, he will take on the responsibility and face the public to explain the government's rationale behind its policies, said Mr Wong.

Political opposition is here to stay – gone are the days of the People's Action Party's (PAP) one-party dominance, he added.

But he emphasised that he will do everything he can to make sure the party continues securing the mandate from Singaporeans to govern the country. The next General Election has to be held by November 2025.
