haha... i never though i'd say this, but DPPS is really quite fun... haha it's interesting to know the issues behind policy making... haha and of course it is indeed easy to complain how certain policies dun seem to work... BUT... take on the role of a policy maker and u realise that certain things have to be sacrificed in order to achieve optimal results...

today's session wuz really quite interesting... with 9 different groups analysing different aspects of a policy we managed to come up with lots of flaws in the systems... however, while trying to improve on these flaws, we realised, thru the apt intervension of other groups, that the changes we tried to impose had their own flaws too, and in most cases, more severe ones... haha... hmmm really makes me consider if most of the complains singaporeans make are really quite unfounded... haha but then again, the exercise clearly shows that these improvements do come starting from negative remarks... haha

ok so we've covered security and social/healthcare issues liao... economic policies next... looking forward to the next 2 days... haha ciao
