I refer to the Straits Times editorial “Leading with stability during transition” (May 16).
We might as well analyze and interpret this specific topic from a macro perspective, how Singapore should respond and adapt to the evolution of the entire international situation and formulate a foreign policy that is extremely beneficial to itself, rather than analyzing and studying it from the perspective of domestic politics.
Looking at today’s rapidly changing world order, I doubt which country’s political leaders have not developed strategies for their country’s future and formulated the most pragmatic and beneficial policies.
It is conducive to the country’s future development and enables the country to adapt to the dynamic changes and unpredictable challenges of the world situation. This is especially true for any advanced country.
nation.
Yan Zi said in the Spring and Autumn Annals: “He who understands the times is a hero, and he who follows the times is wise.”
This fully demonstrates that those who can adapt to the trend of the times and grasp the pulse of the times are the real talents.
Admittedly, unfortunately, Singapore is a small cosmopolitan city/country. It has no choice but to brainstorm and think of all possible pragmatic, rational, sensible and self-interested means and strategies to survive in this competitive and complex world.
In view of this, Singapore must continue to adhere to its neutral, non-aligned and friendly diplomatic stance and policy, and carry out all-round trade, economic, technological cooperation and cultural exchanges with countries around the world. This is most in line with Singapore’s own national interests, security interests and development strategy.
No matter who is in power, as long as Singapore adheres to the above national development strategy, Singapore’s future should be bright and stable.
As far as the current domestic political situation is concerned, the foothold of the entire opposition camp is far from solid, so for at least ten years, they will not pose a substantial “threat” or “challenge” to the ruling party.
