What they had was an overding vision of a clean, honest and transparent government. They were adamant that S'pore would be governed with the highest possible standards of excellence and they have kept to that manifesto till this day. If Lim Guan Eng and Co keeps to the same manifesto then they can't go far wrong because M'sians have seen what can be achieved through such a vision. If the Penang Govt sticks to their cause then the voters will keep them in power come the next GE.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37045477.post-79928808392013926172008-03-27T00:37:00.000+08:002008-03-27T00:37:00.000+08:00"New broom sweep clean"...true.

You see, a minister is advised by well, advisors and consultants. The minister doesn't need to have deep knowledge of subjects e.g. President Bush can't possibly know everything in the US and the world. A good analogy is the business world - a CEO is advised by the management/advisors/consultants. For example, Genting's founder, Lim Goh Tong is gone;however, Genting highlands is still running.

We have successful CEOs, IT professionals, lawyers, doctors, legislators in the BR-that is the kind of professional experience we need in the government, not just speech makers and wheeler dealers. Singapore prides itself in selecting professiuonals to run as politicians and they do a pretty good job. So why the question whether they can manage state governments? Good decision makers and people of integrity will make good policies. Anyway they can always recruit professionals and experts to assist them-many in the previous government did not even had the benefit of tertiary education.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37045477.post-5132238452886519892008-03-24T10:00:00.000+08:002008-03-24T10:00:00.000+08:00Tony,I think the question is not so much of what e...Tony,<BR/><BR/>I think the question is not so much of what experience you guys have, but rather what people really want to know is, now that you have won, what is the plan?<BR/><BR/>How do you intend to develop and implement ideas?

Expe...Dear YB<BR/><BR/>None of us were born to walk nor run. Experience is debatable; each individual has different journies. Some gain experience in less than 5 years, some 10 years. It's all about exposure. How old did Bill Gates start his company? Think about it. But as a government, like any corporation, it is the collective management that counts. Not just the CEO. Team work is important. The people of PJ should not just dump everything onto the MPs shoulder to carry away. Experience is also about sharing. The more we share, we can only gain more. <BR/><BR/>However, the issue should be "do we want our country to be driven down the monsoon drain by experienced corrupts?". A line has to be drawn & brakes pulled when things get out of hand. If not wrong, in a famous Japanese car assembly line, when there is a fault detected on any one part is discovered, the entire production line stop immediately without hesitation. This is prevention measures, damage control & having zero-defect mentality to the consumer. <BR/><BR/>Well, we all know that some other car makers, will continue with defective parts...the consequences are obvious if a car is sold with defective parts. It will cause bad reputation, cost a lot more to fix the damage later & having to face heavy claims. This is basically what has happened to our country. Thus, I hope to share this simple philosophy with you. <BR/><BR/>So, even the most experienced government will & always face new challenges. Look at USA. The most experienced democratic government having trouble to fix their own economy. Does experience count? It's more than that. <BR/><BR/>All the best. <BR/>PJBOY.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37045477.post-62132295615633987572008-03-24T00:28:00.000+08:002008-03-24T00:28:00.000+08:00I was at SS3 ceramah when I saw her ( Hannah Yeoh ...I was at SS3 ceramah when I saw her ( Hannah Yeoh ) standing there ( on stage ) in her high heels and pretty dress and she is ...
