Singapore's past prosperity and progress are inextricably linked to this fair, equal, and inclusive social environment.
But I think it's not enough. Privileges still exist, and Singaporeans have always longed for a fairer voice.
I will make radical changes in this area, so that everyone will be equal in the future Singaporean society.
