COMPLACENCY is our enemy.
Complacency sets in WHEN THINGS ALWAYS BECOME BETTER.
During the last 50 years of nation building, things got better and better even though in between, there were some crises such as the Sars crisis, Asian financial crisis and the global financial meltdown.
The Singapore Government had handled each of the crises well - enough to shield Singaporeans from their full impact so that many cannot even name the crises that have blown over.
Has success allowed complacency to set in?
Is the state of affairs in SMRT confined to itself, or a manifestation of the complacency that has crept into the general population?
Perhaps it is time to pause and ask ourselves, as individuals, if we are still setting high standards for ourselves. Are we putting in our best efforts and doing justice to the tasks we have been assigned and entrusted with?
Complacency is the path to failure. A certain amount of paranoia is necessary for survival. Being paranoid keeps complacency at bay. Time to take stock.
