Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong emphasized Singapore's need for the "right politics" to avoid slipping into mediocrity. Addressing union leaders and partners of the National Trades Union Congress (NTUC) on Labour Day, he cautioned against succumbing to populism and short-term gains, urging vigilance against potential divisions in society. Highlighting the looming challenges of geopolitical tensions, Lee stressed the importance of Singapore's trustworthiness as a global partner. He called for support for Deputy Prime Minister Lawrence Wong, who will succeed him, acknowledging the upcoming transition as a pivotal moment for the country's future. During Lee's tenure as Singapore's longest-serving prime minister, the country's gross domestic product surged from S$194 billion (US$142 billion) in 2004 to more than S$600 billion (US$439 billion) last year. #Growth #Trust #Leadership #FinancialCentre #Inclusive #SocialCohension #Innovation #Transformation #NextGen #Singapore I South China Morning Post SCMP I Kimberly L.
