SINGAPORE: The ruling People's Action Party's (PAP) Secretary General and Singapore's Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong said the government is about making choices and tradeoffs and the ongoing sessions of the National Conversation are important in this process.
Wrapping up the party's seminar, which was held as part of the National Conversation, Mr Lee said it is important for the party to think hard about what the country will be like in the next 20 to 30 years, especially in the context of an ever-changing global environment.
Mr Lee said the PAP has to remain the dominant party in the country and to engage the views of Singaporeans who form the middle ground.
As part of the seminar, teams from the different districts of the party made presentations on several topical issues, with Mr Lee summing up their presentations.
