Jamus Lim on Bretton Woods Agreements (Amendment) Bill
The “good faith” delivery of foreign aid can also rebound back to us, said MP Jamus Lim. Speaking in Parliament on Monday (Jul 3), he pointed out that Singapore’s economy has largely recovered from the COVID-19 pandemic but many other countries are still facing the repercussions. He said by becoming a more active provider of foreign aid, the goodwill gained can be very valuable when Singapore hopes for support from other nations in the future. As a small country, this sort of soft power can only be obtained by building up a stock today and by being generous when others are needy, he said.
