However, I am certain of one thing. If, in the end, Singapore decides to move towards a two-party system, then we are destined for mediocrity. We will lose our shine and become nothing more than a dull little red dot, if we tell ourselves: “Look, never mind. Let’s just be an ordinary city. Why should we try to be better than other cities or countries?” I will be very sorry for Singapore if we ever went down that road.
