Abstract
The year 1977 saw a number of important developments in Singapore which mav be analysed within the framework of two dominant themes influencing much of Singapore life. The themes are the People's Action Party (PAP) Government's political ideology of survival and the concept of achievement. This essay discusses, first, the nature of these two dominant themes and demonstrates how these often contradictory themes have been fused within the Singapore context to produce a unique style of politics and economic life. Utilising this framework of analysis, discussion will then focus on developments in Singapore from three perspec tives?politics, the economy and foreign relations.
