Andre Low on Coastal Protection and Other Amendments Bill

10:58 Min

The decisions made as the government implements the Coastal Protection and Other Amendments Bill will be felt by Singaporeans who are today in primary school, in their parents’ arms, or not yet born. NCMP Andre Low shared this observation in parliament on Friday (Mar 6). Putting forth two arguments, he said that how Singapore designs its coastal defences matters as much as whether they are built. He also noted that what Singapore builds has the potential to serve not just its own shores, but the shores of nations across the region, and in doing so, build a new pillar of Singapore’s economy.
