Saktiandi Supaat on Central Provident Fund (Amendment) Bill

06:44 Min

The Singtel Special Discounted Shares scheme has been “an extraordinary success story” and reflects a broader principle that Singaporeans should have a stake in the nation’s success - a principle that remains relevant today. Why then have there not been more such initiatives and will opportunities be created as Singapore invests in new growth areas such as AI? MP Saktiandi Supaat asked this question in parliament on Thursday (May 7). On issues of implementation, he asked what is being done to reach those who may be unaware of their holdings and to ensure real understanding of what is involved, as well as how long holders have to decide whether to sell or keep their shares if they choose not to act now.
