Leaders should address important issues

For many years since its independence, Singapore has been a model of excellence in governance. However, the situation has grown to be quite pathetic during in recent years. Here are some of the problems:

a) rampant cheating, e.g. land banking, toxic products
b) escalating cost of living and housing prices
c) stagnant wages, stressful and poor quality of life
d) wastefulness, such as the episode on payTV platforms

It is time for our leaders to address these issues.
