Political Views

What is a perfect government ? I've been thinking if really the best form of government is a democratic one ? There are basically a number of different form of government in the world. Is democratic really the best form of government ? Take for instance, Australia where i am currently residing in. Every 3 years, there is an election and if the opposition wins, there are new rules and regulation, for example when the Liberal won in the previous election they spend millions of dollars bringing in workchoice agreement, now with labour winning, they plan to scrap it. I wonder if the next election if liberal were to win again, would the workchoice agreement be reinstated.

It just seems that even in a democratic form of government, changes often occur and changes will often if not unsettle the economy, the infrastructure and also the climate of the country. Though it may seem that democracy may have its flaw, I am not proposing in anyway, that dictatorship government like that of President Mugabe in Nigeria, the communist government system in Russia or China is any better. I am also not proposing that there is a all in one best form of government.

Actually i don't believe that there are any perfect government system in the world, its actually the people running the government that makes the country great. Take for instance Singapore, a small tiny country, with the land area not bigger than Perth Australia Metro region.

Some may say that the Government is very high handed on opposition and is very authoritarian I wont disagree on that, what is important that though sometimes the government may make decisions which may not be popular. They always put the people and the country first in every decision.

That is what makes a good government.... Character
