Words of Wisdom

I like DPM Teo Chee Hean's comments on the whole AWARE issue, "I think there will always be differences in our society. It's a question of whether we can deal with that in a sensible way, learn to accept each other's differences and still work together for the community.

There are people in our society with different views. And there are views, when we push them too hard, there will be a push back from the other side. You are not going to resolve some of these differences because they are strongly held. And you risk polarising society if you push too hard.

I think if you believe what you are doing is right, live a good life, do good work and persuade people by what you do and how you live rather than by pushing your ideas on them in a more pushy way.”
