He gave us a assurance that he is sure of what he is doing for the country and he really proved it to us. He is a leader that deserves to be remembered forever.

Moral courage is the courage to take action for moral reasons despite the risk of adverse consequences . Courage is required to take action when one is determined and have the confidence/bravery to do what's is right for the country . Therefore it is important to have moral courage like what Mr Ong Teng Cheong has displayed . There are many occasions that Mr Ong has displayed moral courage like the development of Rapid Transport System . Mr Ong is the one who pursued for the development of a rapid train system in Singapore as he believed that it will offer better traffic solution to the country . Despite the hefty cost for the development and the disagreements from the parliament cabinet colleagues, he continued to press on and provide enough supporting evidence to make this project happen.
Apart from this , he also gave official permission for the first strike in Singapore as he believe what he did was right for the workers as they need to make a living to support their families .

For example, Mr Wong propose on a project to improve transportation and even thought the cost was hefty, he propose with CLEAR evidence and explainations.

He did something that let the managment (America shipping company) relook on their employment practices. Mr Ong had showed having moral courage is very important for a person.
