What is the society you want to see take shape in Singapore in the years ahead? How can we ensure it will be a society where there is gender equality, where every person can live the life they want? A diverse group of writers -- women and men, teenagers and octogenarians, artists. academics, caregivers, journalists, doctors, lawyers, and many others -- offer their thoughts about these questions and more, their vision of the ideal Singapore. Their essays will make you think, and you too may begin to say 'Why not?'.
