NATIONAL DAY RALLY- EMBRACE TALENT, TECHNOLOGY TO SECURE S’PORE’S FUTURE: PM (The Straits Times 21 August pg1)
There may be no ‘goodies’ for us this year however Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong has prepared us to anticipate potential challenges and has shared ideas for Singapore to remain competitive.
It was heartening to hear that the government has given us opportunities to improve such as the aim of enabling every Singaporean to use IT and provide more job opportunities, which will allow us to improve our skills. In addition diverse or unconventional talents are also encouraged to develop or showcase their skills in Singapore to keep our country vibrant.
However Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong has also highlighted the importance for us to give our own input. Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong has mentioned that we may be in demand in other countries but we must remember that fewer will be in our homeland, keeping it dynamic and beating. Hopefully such a point will cause our locals to stay and shape the society or help bring in new talent when overseas.
Finally we may have technology and talent however the unity in us is important as it binds us together to face challenges confidently and effectively. Terrorism is all over the place and we need to understand each other with faith to prevent distrust that will tear the nation apart.
Therefore although we do not have any monetary incentives, we do have a ‘goodie’ in knowing what is ahead of us, and the rally has given us an idea on how to tackle these challenges.
