GST was introduced by him and asset enhancement too on our HDB flats. So to be in World Cup final in 2010 too is by him.(22-06-2014, 11:24 AM)Lancelot Wrote: [ -> ]Have we achieved Swiss standard ?

The 2010 world cup vision was by Mr Mah BT. Clearly the vision was way far off the target. Wonder what is his shifted new date for Singapore team in world cup?

I like the Gov to cut the crap on doing away with one item or two items from CPI and sweep the issue under the carpet. Basic necessity is important but so are major items. Stop playing around with statistic. We need to measure performance YoY. Apple to apple.

Well, there is no harm to aim for the moon, as long as the execution remains pragmatic.
I am also aiming for the moon now, with a targeted return from investment, which not too far from our mentors. I wouldn't blame those laughing at me on the "vision", because I do have the similar feeling.
Vision set, and next with a prudent execution. I might be super lucky and able to achieve the same, many years later.
Pardon me for a slight OT
