Reaching out to the Community
109. To strengthen interaction between the Government and the community, I have asked the politically appointed officials of the Third Term Government to proactively reach out to the community, listen to public views and work with the stakeholders. In this connection, we will make better use of the available channels, including various advisory bodies such as the Commission on Strategic Development. Reaching out to the community is a two-way communication process. Members of the community also need to organise themselves, and express their views in a pragmatic and responsible manner, so that a consensus can be reached.
