The Prime Minister has called for a National Conversation. There is promise that sacred cows can be sacrificed. However, many people are skeptical. They have seen a few similar exercises carried out over the past years - and the major policies continued to be unchanged, and things got worse!
The Prime Minister can win over the people just by adopting one major change, such as:
a) Reduce the price of new HDB flats
b) Abolish GST
c) Reduce National Service obligation
Suppose, the Prime Minister ask for a national debate on one or more of these issues and invite people who have proposed alternative views for this debate. And, if one of these sacred cows are really slaughtered, the Prime Minister would have gained a lot of credibility for this National Conversation.
I hope that he will consider my suggestion!
