李显龙就任新一届新加坡总理的英语演讲稿

Mr. President,Friends and Colleagues,And fellowSingaporeans,

We have had a pivotal General Election. It took placeduring SG50, marking the beginning of a newchapter for us.

As a people, we faced critical choices in thiselection. We had to decide whom we wanted to formthe Government, which team to choose to secureour future, and which direction Singapore shouldprogress in. We had to ask ourselves: how do we keep improving our lives, taking Singaporehigher, and building something worthwhile and lasting for our children?

My team and I are honoured and humbled that 70% of voters chose the PAP to form theGovernment. You gave us a clear mandate to take Singapore forward, and we will do so.

Such a decisive result could only have happened with support from all groups of Singaporeans.All 89 seats were contested, and every adult citizen had to vote. The real winners in thiselection were Singaporeans. We have a strong, stable government, able to take Singaporeconfidently into the future. Singaporeans showed that we knew what was at stake. At a criticalmoment, we united to decide our future. We pledged ourselves to forge a new way forward asone people, one nation, one Singapore.

The election result sent an important signal to the world: that we Singaporeans aredetermined to keep Singapore special. Through the decades, our political stability and ourquality workforce have attracted many MNCs to invest here. In recent times, MNCs havewatched our politics more closely, to see which way it is heading. After the election, EDB toldme that an MNC that has been here for many years had just decided to increase its stake inSingapore and make another billion-dollar investment here, creating many more good jobs forSingaporeans. I have no doubt that the election result boosted this investor's confidence thatthey were making the right decision, and that they could be confident Singaporeans wouldkeep our fundamentals strong. I am sure that our neighbours noticed too, as have others.

Your clear mandate has enabled me to form a strong Cabinet. My new team comprises bothexperienced Ministers who will provide steady hands in a challenging environment, andyounger Ministers who will bring new perspectives and ideas. They will have to master theissues quickly and ready themselves to lead Singapore.

My first objective in forming this Cabinet is, as always, to provide the most effectivegovernment for Singapore. We are entering a new phase of our nationhood. We face morecomplex challenges and new issues that cut across multiple domains. Therefore, I haveappointed Coordinating Ministers to oversee work in three major areas.

The first area is national security, which remains a vital precondition of our success. The SAFand Home Team have kept us safe, but new dangers and threats are emerging around us.ISIS and jihadist terrorists are a serious problem for Southeast Asia and Singapore, becausethey threaten our physical safety and our racial harmony. Tensions in the South China Sea areunsettling our region. Political problems or racial tensions in neighbouring countries cancomplicate bilateral relations, or spill over to affect our society. Therefore, I have kept DPMTeo Chee Hean in charge of national security.

Another area is economic and social policies, which form a major part of our agenda. With anageing population and uncertain global conditions, growth will be harder to come by. Yet oureconomy must grow to create opportunities for Singaporeans and to improve our lives. At thesame time, we must use the fruits of growth wisely, both to invest in our future and tostrengthen our social safety nets. Every citizen should benefit from Singapore's success, andthose needing an extra helping hand should be looked after. DPM Tharman will oversee thiscritical area.

The final major area is infrastructure. Goodinfrastructure provides the physical basis for ourquality of life, and our economic competitiveness.Compared to most other countries, we have donewell. Singaporeans live in good homes, enjoy a well-planned, green environment, and travel in anefficient public transport system. But we haveambitious plans to build on what we already haveover the next 20-30 years to create a new city, andan outstanding living environment for all of us.We also know where we need to do more work to improve standards and to remedyshortcomings. Khaw Boon Wan will be responsible for making Singapore a beautiful andendearing home for all of us.

生活不会迁就任何人作文

走过岁月，走过生活，心里有许多感慨，也有所感悟。生活犹如万花筒，喜怒哀乐，酸甜苦辣，相依相随。也许真的生活不如意，但不必太在意，人生本如梦，岁月不会迁就任何人，要学会看淡一切。珍惜拥有、善待自己，让我们的心中永远有一片阳光照耀的晴空，把眼前的痛苦看淡，或许痛苦之后就是幸福。没有人不想幸福快乐地生活，然而现实生活不尽如人意，我们经常不能左右幸福，因为痛苦烦恼总是不期而至，面对痛苦烦恼我们也许无法逃避，但我们可以选择善待自己。

人生只有经历才会懂得，只有懂得才会去珍惜，一生中总会有一个人让你笑得最甜，也总会有一个人让你痛得最深。忘记一切，就是最好的善待自己，人生的过程不过就是失与得，看淡了也就轻松了，在一切看淡后我不知道我该看重什么？人非圣人，谁能无错，看淡一切，一切也就过眼云烟，如果真的忘不了，就默默地珍藏在心底的最深处，藏到岁月的烟尘触及不到的地方

生活有时真的.很累，身不由已的感觉只有亲身经历了才会知道。生活本身就有很多无奈，但生活也有很多美好的东西，好也罢，坏也罢，总是让人有所期待，所以我们都要活下去，人不能想的太多，经常往好的方向想想，为了一些自己想要的东西，哪怕实现不了的也要尽力，成也罢，败也罢，只有经历过心里才会舒服些。还是换一种态度生活吧，把不高兴事情的统统抛开，人活着就那么短暂的数十载，凡人当然有烦恼，生活本来就有许许多多的无奈，看你用什么样的心态去对待，世上没有十全十美的人，生活中有快乐，亦有悲伤，这都是很正常的，要不为什么会有眼泪呢？

无数次站在人生的十字路口，无数次面临着不同的抉择，向左走，向右走？没有经验，没有向导，没有提示，没有路标，一切都要凭借自己的智慧和勇气，作出选择和决定，正因为人生的舞台没有彩排，也没有重演，所以人生路上我们的每一个选择和决定，都必须深思熟虑，三思而行，对自己负责，对生命负责。人们常说“人往高处走，水往低处流”，那么我们就往高处走吧，不要想太多伤感的事，什么事都往前看，并相信什么事都会过去的。有人说，生活是一种享受；有人说，生活是一种无奈。其实，生活有享受也有无奈，有欣慰也有困惑。生活就象一枚青果，你含在嘴里慢慢品，细细嚼，便有诸多滋味在你舌尖蔓延，也甜，也酸，也苦，也涩。

漫漫旅途中，或许感到疲惫，也许有些沉重，但只要有一份美丽的心情，就会觉得欣慰，就会充满自信。好好的珍惜人生，尽情的拥抱生活，虽然辛苦，也会咀嚼出甘甜与芬芳的神韵！快乐从来不是永恒的，痛苦也只是个过程，没有谁能拒绝春天来临，没有谁能永远都做好梦，最终一句，快乐掌握在自己手里，是要靠自己去找寻的，看淡一切，珍惜拥有,生活不会迁就任何人。

周总理的幽默

每一个人都有幽默的时候，只是在不要同的地方。就算是周总理，只是在不同的地方。

一位记者问总理：“中国有没有妓女?”不少人纳闷：怎们问这种问题?大家关注着周总理，周总理肯定的说：“有!”接着“中国的妓女在台湾!”这一答，记者哑口无言。其实这是一个圈套，只要总理说：“没有”，一旦你真的`这样回答了，就中了他的圈套，他会紧接着说“台湾有妓女”，这个时候你总不能说“台湾不是中国的领土”。

美国代表团访华时曾有一位记者说：“中国人很喜欢低着头走路，而我们美国人却总是抬着头走路。”此语一出，话惊四座。周总理不慌不忙，脸带微笑地说：“这并不奇怪。因为我们中国人喜欢走上坡路，而你们美国人喜欢走下坡路。”

美国官员的话里显然包含着对中国人的极大侮辱。在场的中国工作人员都十分气愤，但又不能在外交场合强烈斥责对方的无礼。如果忍气吞声，听任对方的羞辱，那么国威何在?周总理的回答让美国人领教了什么叫做柔中带刚，最终尴尬、窘迫的是美国人自己。

哲理：有时候的幽默，可以用来玩，也可以用来维护尊严。

我家的总理作文1200字

我奶奶出生在山东省招远县(今招远市)一个偏僻、土地贫瘠的穷山村里。童年时，苦日子、穷日子把她折腾得死去活来，她对今天不愁吃、不愁穿的幸福生活一百个满意。奶奶今年快八旬了，耳不聋、眼不花、背不驼，身子骨硬朗着哪，一家七八口人的吃、喝、买米、买菜等家务活她都承包下来了。说我们上班的上班，上学的上学，每天工作、学习都很累，不用你们干。奶奶是持家的能手，干活有条不紊、干净利索，做的饭菜色、香、味俱佳，我家很少去饭店聚餐。为此：奶奶被我们全家人誉为我家的“总理”。

我们全家人谁也不敢在“总理”面前说：这东西不好吃，我不愿吃;这衣服旧了，不时髦了，我不愿穿的话。假如不留神，说走了嘴，让她听到了，她就会满脸的怒气批评你：都是好日子烧的你们，你们都不知道姓啥了?她就会又滔滔不绝的回忆起她童年的往事：我都上学了，不知道什么叫裤衩、内衣、外衣，只知道春秋穿的单裤脱下来，偎在坑上，等妈妈把它洗干净后，絮上棉花，就成了棉裤，冬天穿。春天到了，把棉裤里的棉花扒出来，就是单裤，春秋穿。看你们现在春夏秋冬有多少套衣服?有的没等穿旧、穿破，甚至只穿了一两次，说不时髦了，就把它扔掉了;我上学时中午带着两片地瓜干和一个凉菜团子，就是一顿午餐;一块四方破布包着书，当书包，夹着上学;我从未穿过用新买来的布做的衣服，都是哥哥、姐姐穿着小了，改一改，补一补，给我穿……。

奶奶不忘本的思想、做法是值得我们钦佩、学习和发扬光大的。但，她有时有点固执的过度。比如，吃剩的.饭、菜，当顿吃不了，下顿还吃，下顿吃不完，再下顿仍然端上来，不管它变不变质，吃不完决不罢休。总认为扔掉可惜，是浪费，别人不吃，她自己吃。边吃边说：有点味怕什么!不要糟蹋东西，糟蹋东西是犯罪的，总有一天老天爷会惩罚你的。

吃了这样变质的食物，肯定是胃肠不舒服的，轻者呕吐，重者拉肚子，闹痢疾。有一次她真的吃坏了肚子，上吐下泻，捂着肚子哼哼个没完。全家人用事实劝说她，咱劝也无济于事。因病在身，她不吱声，对你说的话，既不反对也不赞同。吃药、打针的费用，超过那些饭菜的几十倍，哪个合算?哪个不合算?她不算经济账。事后，仍然是我行我素，她还是她，交了学费，也不接受教训。

天长日久，全家人知道了奶奶的体性：只要是全家人爱吃的菜，她从不第一个下筷，非等全家人吃够了，吃剩了，她再打扫盘子底。尤其是我爱吃的菜，她会站起来，把盘子端到我的跟前，让我先吃个够。后来，我们把好吃的菜，齐声说：这个菜做的没有味道，不好吃!她又会叙叙道道的说：都是好日子把你们烧的，你们都不知道姓啥了?你们不吃我吃。如是，她就动筷吃这个菜。别说，这一招真灵，每逢做有好吃的、特殊的菜我们都齐声说：这个菜做的没有味道，不好吃!她准会抢着吃，比我们劝她吃都好用。

由此我想到了，习惯势力的烙印是很难去掉的，不是一朝一夕能把几十年养成的习惯改变过来。尤其是过怕了那穷苦、吃不饱饭的日子的人，视粮食、菜蔬、瓜果为命根子，想让她接受年轻人的想法、做法是难上加难的。
