Absolutely right. I'm an expat and while I generally think like a Westerner because of my education but I generally think like an Asian, because of my roots.

There must be a balance and the liberals need to respect the conservatives and meet halfway / find the middle ground.

Liberal view is progressive and ensures sustainable competitive advantage for the economy and the benefit of its people. Conservative values are equally important - to ensure a check and balance. I have said it before and I'll say it again - total freedom is anarchy.

If both sides are granite heads and no one wants to compromise, respect and be flexible and adaptable, then there will be a stalemate and no progress.
