Here are the lessons learned that we have captured from DTASG Signature Campaign on the letter to PM Lee. This exercise is done within the DTASG leadership team during our campaign closing meeting.
We have reviewed and reflected at the three areas as below:
1. Good things that we have done that we should repeat them again in the future
- Doing the right thing (double taxation avoidance shall benefit all and it is the right thing to do)
- Networking Approach (getting supports from Lan Pya Kyal and Dan Dar Yi)
- Choosing the right location for the campaign (Penninsula Plaza)
- Having target deadlines (for campaign start and end)
- Having voluntary champions/owners who personally collect signatures
- Having Group Discussions and Achieving Consensus (in the DTASG leadership team) for the Campaign Ideas
- Having supporting materials or use of media for public education (Pamphalet/Blog/News Stories)
2. What can we improve? Things we could have done better.
- More visible poster about the campaign
- More locations for signature collection
- We should have captured the feelings of the people (through the use of guest book)
- We should have captured the contact information (so that we can inform people about the result of the campaign)
- We should have seize opportunities to get more participations (through the use of other events such as DASSK birthday)
- We should have got more voluntary champions/owners who can personally collect signatures
- We should have conducted interim meetings of DTASG Leadership Team during the campaign period (so that we can review the campaign progress and take actions for improvement)
3. Things that went so wrong that we should never/ever repeat it again
- None
We would like to thank you all again for your active participations in our Double Taxation Avoidance Signature Campaign for the letter to PM Lee. We only have achieved progress and get to where we are today now thanks to the hard work and commitments of all those members in the DTASG leadership team and those who support us in every possible way.
Please feel free to provide constructive feedbacks. We look forward to receiving any good ideas with the aim of making this movement getting stronger and garner more participations of the people.
With best regards
Naing Moe Aung (on behalf of DTASG Leadership Team)
