On Thursday, August 3, the cover headline of the cover of the Morning Post showed that Premier Li Xianlong issued a statement of minister in Congress, and Minister of Transport Yi Huaren was investigated by the Corruption Council , and Former Congress Speaker and Member resigned because of extramarital affairs a series of scandals to respond to the issues of members of the parliament.What attracted me the most was that the former minister and the back seats were almost dangling, which made people feel the dignified atmosphere in the parliament hall at the time.
In a tight atmosphere, a suggestion suddenly emerged in the mouth of the workers' party leader Bi Dan: This current government behavior is lacking, the prime minister can Consider the appointment of moral consultants to face the complex situation of current government and political governance.I do n’t know if he joked with himself, or it was to ridicule the government.If he has a joke, he should first appoint a "training director" in the Central Committee of the Workers' Party. Supervisory the party's leadership must not lie whether anyone is, and the married person must not steal sugar.
If Bi Danxing is to ridicule the government, this trick is good.Since ancient times, China has the political wisdom of "difficult to break the housework."Former Speaker Chen Chuanren and former Member Zhong Lihui's scandal of extramarital affairs were procrastinating before the prime minister took action.The prime minister's explanation is that he hopes to give the parties a chance to break as soon as possible, otherwise once the incident is exposed, they will seriously hurt their family.The prime minister is based on the influence of family members, but his tolerance does not get the response.
From the "observation" storm caused by the two ministers rented the black and white houses, the Minister of Communications was suspected of corruption, and went to the parliament of parliament and parliament to marry an extramarital affairs, it would be more or less impaired by the government for many years.It is hoped that the Prime Minister and the fourth -generation leadership will be able to clear the fog to ensure that Singapore's successful system will be maintained.
Prime Minister Li spent a lot of time, with Chinese government governmentThe determination to maintain the cleanliness government and the good system should be used to curb illegal acts with severe legal systems;
The corruption of ministers or senior civil servants is serious illegal. When the government handles cases, it must not be soft -handed. However, in the face of the personal private business of members, it emphasizes "humanized" treatment.A few idioms were used in the speech of the Prime Minister: the best system will also be "invincible". Corruption cases must be checked "water falling stones". Personal ethics must be "strict with self -discipline". The situation is different.Originally "adapt to time").The Prime Minister said that he and his team clearly knew that maintaining integrity and political atmosphere is very important for our democratic system. "As always, maintaining self -discipline and adhering to the principles of integrity", the Prime Minister emphasized that this is the promise of the People's Action Party.
Huang Xuncai, the fourth -generation leader and Minister of Finance, recently made the same promise. When he was interviewed by the BBC on July 26, he responded to how the recent storm would affect the reputation of Singapore: "In general, when you look at these incidents, the focus is that the Singaporeans' trust in us is very important. I have determination to ensure that we continue to keep this trust. "
In foreign countries, Western media's attention to the corruption case of the minister is more than the peach -colored news of the parliament of Congress and parliamentarians.This is not surprising, because Singapore ranks among the top global national rankings every year.The scandal is pure personal affairs. In Europe and the United States, the society is improper. The hype of traditional media and social media is mainly to strive for reading rates and cannot afford political storms.
But under the Singapore system, there is a discharge point from the personal behavior of politicians, and extramarital affairs are not exactly personal. The parties may pay a heavy price. The parties and family members will be "pointed" in public.In the long run, the parties' stains followed them throughout their lives. Maybe they could not be forgiven by their families in their lives, and their families broke down.Moreover, whenever there are similar scandals in the future, the past examples will be turned out, allowing the parties and family members to experience pain again.This is the ultimate punishment.
In response to the extramarital affairs of the Speaker, the Prime Minister said that he did not deal with it immediately and did not want them to leave soly.He said: "Looking back on the development of this incident now, if it can be re -processed, I will do it earlier." Maybe some people think that this is Kong Ming afterwards, but from another perspective, it reflects that Premier Li's development of the situation is not non -development.The words "sadness" are enough to describe.The huge response caused by the disclosure of the Speaker's marriage and the serious trauma caused by the serious trauma caused by the family members of the parties may surpass the prime minister's imagination before.
In the face of "law" and "reason", the government must handle it in mind, but in the word "love", even if it is a serious test of any obedient with high political emotional intelligence.In addition, the political costs that the government may pay cannot be estimated.
Premier Li hopes that whether it is an extramarital affairs of the DAP or opposition members, everyone can respect the privacy of the parties and their family and give them time and space to face it.In fact, even without the public statement of the Prime Minister, local mainstream media did not harass the parties' families in order to dig news or create topics.This is a good style of local media, and it is also an indispensable political and social system.But this is not taken for granted. When the entire system is not running, all kinds of problems will appear, just like opening the "Pandora's box".
Now the government's biggest consideration is how to "ensure that the Singaporean governance system continues to run well."Restoring and maintaining the public's confidence in the system is the last homework of Premier Li in front of the formal stick.He must make sure that what he left for the next generation is a political heritage that is enough to be handed down.Then he could leave any regrets like Jianguo Prime Minister Lee Kuan Yew and his former Prime Minister Wu Zongdong.
