    In Singapore, resilience lies at the heart of the nation’s efforts at building a strong civic culture. For those experiencing urban poverty, resilience holds little weight against the national rhetoric of self-reliance and meritocracy as keys to success.

It draws on Singapore’s national ideas of equality, justice, democracy, peace, and progress as touchstones to guide our reflection.
