When we look at policy, it's important we make sure that it's up to date and reflective of the way the world works today - and where the world is heading in the future.

Every nation has to follow a certain policy: Commercial, trade, various other types of policies.

The answer dictates what the policy should be in our relationships with every country in the world.

It is a fact that governments tend to put in place policies and strategies in response to current scenarios.

Governments don't control people like they used to.

For a free country to continue thriving, there have to be regular reforms, because any society, any economy that stays in place, you're going to see repeated attempts to exploit the openings for twisting policy to the advantage of those who already have wealth and power.

Good economic policy requires not so much the bravado to implement drastic change as the strength and wisdom to make reasonable trade-offs over the many years it takes to transform a country's standard of living.

Politics doesn't matter, policy does.

In a normal time, I don't think economic policy makes a large difference one way or another. But in times of crisis it makes all the difference in the world.

Government has not been good about being good stewards of policy.
