Budget 2025 debate: Denise Phua on 3 focus areas to secure Singapore’s future
As Singapore marks its 60th birthday this year, it continues to face several core existential struggles, said MP Denise Phua in parliament on Wednesday (Feb 26). She cited the declining fertility rate, the growing needs of a rapidly ageing population and the disruptive impact of artificial intelligence (AI) on jobs and the economy. She proposed that the government “deep dive” into three focus areas to secure Singapore’s future - accelerating upskilling and job transformation in the age of AI, establishing task forces to study the challenges faced by vulnerable groups and businesses so they can be better supported, and facilitating more community-driven solutions.
