NATIONAL DAY RALLY

Today was (is) PM's Lee Hsien Loong's National Day Rally speech. I admire his ambitions for the country, most of which are notably regardin the youth of Singapore. I agree with most of his policies except the China policy. I don't want to comment on that, those thoughts might be viewed politically incorrect.
He did however talk about the Singapore education system, citing that some parents even send their Kindergarten Kids to remedial class! An act unheard of in other countries only in KIASU SINGAPORE! Walau! He did discourage this pressure in kids, telling parents to allow their children to grow up normally and develop at their own time. Which i applaud. Let kids take their own time to bloom. Don't pressure them.
He also presented a new modular system to for mother tounge, which i think will help students cope better. And most importantly put less pressure on them.
I really hope our new PM will do good job (directed by YHWH).
