We can debate on the finer points but I attribute the success of SG to the unyielding conviction of the leaders and their commitment to see the policies through.

We don't see that sort of conviction in BN leaders in the recent past. The merits and the compatibilities of the policies aside, we never seemed to be able to see everything through. Semua hangat tahi ayam. Where's biovalley? Cyberjaya? Now we have this new national education blueprint, it's gonna be another failed project again. We recall the silly ego exercise to switch English to BM in the 70s and then do a half-hearted badly conceived exercise of switching to English and then barely 10 years later, tukar lagi. All these happened under the same party administration. 2 switches happened under the same stewardship some more. If you run a business like that, you would have gone bankrupt long ago.
