Co-operation between governments still plays an important role and will remain indispensable.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
International cooperation, multilateralism is indispensable.
Government has a rightful role, but not an excessive role, to play.
The new co-operation government will do the best it can to address the country's problems, and I believe that with the co-operation of all - and the new government stresses this - and the unity of all, we will achieve that.
Foreign policy is important.
If co-operation is a duty, I hold that non-co-operation also under certain conditions is equally a duty.
Government's role should be only to keep the playing field level, and to work hand in hand with business on issues such as employment. But beyond this, to as great an extent as possible, it should get the hell out of the way.
Transparency in government, no less than transparency in choosing government, remains a vital national interest in a democracy.
It is just as important that business keep out of government as that government keep out of business.
The fact is that co-operation between independent countries - to our mutual advantage - is the way of the modern world.
Government must continue to live within its means.
