  • The Rule of Law and Urban Development
    The Rule of Law and Urban Development The transformation of Singapore from a struggling, poor country into one of the most affluent nations in the world—within a single generation—has often been touted as an “economic miracle”. The vision and pragmatism shown by its leaders has been key, as has its STUDIES URBAN SYSTEMS notable political stability. What has been less celebrated, however, while being no less critical to Singapore’s urban development, is the country’s application of the rule of law. The rule of law has been fundamental to Singapore’s success. The Rule of Law and Urban Development gives an overview of the role played by the rule of law in Singapore’s urban development over the past 54 years since independence. It covers the key principles that characterise Singapore’s application of the rule of law, and reveals deep insights from several of the country’s eminent urban pioneers, leaders and experts. It also looks at what ongoing and future The Rule of Law and Urban Development The Rule of Law developments may mean for the rule of law in Singapore. The Rule of Law “ Singapore is a nation which is based wholly on the Rule of Law. It is clear and practical laws and the effective observance and enforcement and Urban Development of these laws which provide the foundation for our economic and social development. It is the certainty which an environment based on the Rule of Law generates which gives our people, as well as many MNCs and other foreign investors, the confidence to invest in our physical, industrial as well as social infrastructure.

  • Parliament Sitting Date: 17 Aug 1999 ISSUES RAISED by PRESIDENT
    Parliament Sitting Date: 17 Aug 1999 ISSUES RAISED BY PRESIDENT ONG TENG CHEONG AT HIS PRESS CONFERENCE ON 16TH JULY 1999 (Parliamentary Q&As) Mr Jeyaretnam: May I ask the Prime Minister a question or two? I understood him to say that the Cabinet would have been happier if the President had decided to seek re-election. But the Cabinet was concerned whether he was medically capable. But the President had said in his statement that his doctors had given him a clean bill, that his cancer was in complete remission and the President clearly indicated that his health would not stand in the way of his becoming President. May I ask the Prime Minister to explain to this House on what basis or information did the Cabinet conclude that he would not be capable of discharging his duties? Mr Goh Chok Tong: Mr Speaker, Sir, yes, the President had told the public at his press conference regarding his present health situation. But the Cabinet had two medical reports, one from the President's doctor in the United States, Dr Saul Rosenberg, and the other from his physician in Singapore. We studied the reports and it was quite clear from the reports that if you should focus or project the President's health condition into the future, there was a very strong likelihood that he would not be able to perform his duties normally. In a sense, it is like looking at a glass of water, whether it is one-third full or two-thirds empty. The Cabinet had to take the advice of the doctor and take a very careful view of what the President's future condition would be like.

  • We, the Citizens of Singapore Pledge Ourselves As One United People
    We, the citizens of Singapore Pledge ourselves as one united people Regardless of race, language, or religion To build a democratic society Based on justice and equality So as to achieve happiness, prosperity and progress For our nation — National Pledge of Singapore, 1966 by S. Rajaratnam (1915 – 2006), then Minister for Foreign Affairs and a founding father of modern Singapore RETHINKING ALBERT O. HIRSCHMAN’S ‘EXIT, VOICE, AND LOYALTY’: THE CASE OF SINGAPORE DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctorate of Philosophy in The Graduate School at The Ohio State University By Selina Sher Ling Lim, MA, B.Soc.Sci. (Hons.), B.Sc. * * * * * The Ohio State University 2007 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor R. William Liddle, Adviser Professor Anthony Mughan Emeritus Professor Patrick B. Mullen Adviser Graduate Program of Political Science Copyright by Selina Sher Ling Lim 2007 ABSTRACT This research explores the concept of national loyalty within today’s context of international migration and globalization. It seeks to provide a systematic understanding of national loyalty that, thus far, has been widely accepted by most citizens as a social fact and assumed to be an inherent trait. Probing deeper, however, we realize that our understanding of national loyalty is superficial, made ever more shaky by today’s ease of international travel, increasingly porous territorial borders, and images of the global citizen who is at home anywhere in the world. Academically, our understanding of national loyalty has also been mired in intellectual, philosophical, and rhetorical debates over the concept of the nation and national identity. Still, the realization that national loyalty is particularly vital during times when the nation-state is at some major cross road, or faced with the greatest challenge ever yet, is not lost on political leaders throughout the world, especially since the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, on the World Trade Center in New York.

  • The Courts and the 'Rule of Law' in Singapore
    Singapore Journal of Legal Studies [2012] 209–231 THE COURTS AND THE ‘RULE OF LAW’IN SINGAPORE ALecture Delivered at the Rule of Law Symposium Chan Sek Keong∗ I. Introduction I would like to start by congratulating all the speakers who have spoken yesterday and up to before the break. After listening to Professor Furmston’s welcome address, the Minister’s keynote speech defending robustly Singapore’s practical conception of the ‘rule of law’, Professor Tamanaha’s magisterial lecture, Professor Weiler’s passionate defence of a ‘rule of law’ that must incorporate the values of democracy and human rights and the Attorney-General and Justice Rajah’s moderation of the views of the experts on their respective panels, I have to say that the better part of the symposium is probably over, with apologies to the panellists and speakers coming later. So I will liven up my lecture by referring to the ‘rule of law’news in The Straits Times this morning. My lecture will not tell you what form and/or substance the ‘rule of law’ must take or have in order to realise the good society for a particular state, much less a world that is so divided—by differences of nationality, race, culture, religion and wealth. But everyone wants to live in a good society and that is what government is for, to realise it as far as possible. But as Professor Tamanaha says, even if on his preferred definition, the ‘rule of law’ is good, it is not good enough to realise a good society. What else is required? Professor Weiler says that we must accept democracy and human rights as essential elements of the ‘rule of law’.
