Quote: "Those who governed well do not arm, those who were armed well did not set up battle lines, those who set up battle lines well did not fight, those who fought well did not lose, and those who lost well did not perish". - Zhuge Liang (3rd century). Quote: "What I am trying to do? I am trying to create in a Third World situation, a First World oasis. I am not following any prescription given to me by any theoretician on democracy or whatever. I work from first principles, what will get me there: social peace and stability within the country; no fight between the races and the religions or whatever; fair share for everybody. I want investment. I've got nothing except skilled manpower and the infrastructure. I build up infrastructure. I educate the people. We have the best educated work force anywhere in Asia. And I will say within another 10 years, anywhere in the world. They are all educated in English which is our working language and they keep their mother tongue, whether it is Chinese, Malay, or Tamils or whatever. Must I follow your prescription to succeed? Do I want to be like America? Yes, in its inventiveness, in its creativeness. But do I want to be with America like America, with its inability to control the drug problem? No. Or the gun problem? No. These are my choices. I go by what is good governance. What are the things I aim to do? Healthy society that gives everybody a chance to achieve its maximum". - Lee Kuan Yew. Quote: "Good governance never depends upon laws, but upon the personal qualities of those who govern. The machinery of government is always subordinate to the will of those who administer that machinery. The most important element of government, therefore, is the method of choosing leaders". - Frank Herbert.
