ECONOMY SHONE IN FIRST HALF, ROWING 9.4% (The Straits Times 9 August 2006 pg1)
It is heartening to know our efforts have been paid off, having heard from our Prime Minister Lee Hsien Long that our economy has grown by 9.4 percent in the first half of the year.
The government has created many job opportunities from the service sector and has further developed our manufacturing sector. With such efforts put in how can we not be proud to have such capable leaders. I believe this would put the PAP in a more favourable light.
However we definitely did our part as after all it takes two hands to clap. I have seen people I know going for courses to bring their skills to a further step ensuring we remain competitive in this global competition.
Although we have come this far, we must not be complacent of our achievements. Instead we have to constantly improve and anticipate potential threats to our growth such as bird flu, terrorism and trade protectionism. Only than can we remain in the cycle of prosperity.
