Singapore, Incomplete is a collection of personal reflections about the country’s underdeveloped political culture and structure. “Ours is a middle-aged country with a maturing economy—but a political system that treats us like children,” he argues. George calls for more open “rules of engagement” that will protect and celebrate a diversity of ideas and beliefs. He critiques Singapore’s culture of fear, the lack of political transparency, and governmental groupthink.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSingapore in Transition is a compilation of 40 commentaries from the Sunday Times by Han Fook Kwang, former editor of The Straits Times. He provides provocative answers to the hoep, anxiety and questions of many Singaporeans. They include his take on the watershed 2011 General Election and the equally surprising 2015 GE, new economic challenges and what ails the public transport system. Also featured is a selection of his writings on Lee Kuan Yew, founding Prime Minister of Singapore.\u003c\/p\u003e \n\n\u003cp\u003eConsists of: Singapore, Incomplete (Like New), Singapore in Transition (Like New)\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Thryft Singapore","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39446586196049,"sku":null,"price":23.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0110\/0598\/4849\/products\/july-2021-bookbundle-27.jpg?v=1717777675","url":"https:\/\/thryft.sbs\/products\/july-2021-bookbundle-27","provider":"Thryft","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
