Henry Kwek on Digital Infrastructure Bill
Singapore matters to the world because it is a hub for many activities, all of which now depend on compute power, particularly AI. So, having enough data centre capacity is not about helping one industry; it is about creating Singaporeans’ jobs and securing Singapore’s global relevance. MP Henry Kwek made these points in parliament on Tuesday (Oct 6). He said the question is not whether Singapore should have data centres; it is how many, how good and on what terms. A new Bill provides a sound answer, he said, by making Singapore’s data centres more resilient and more efficient.
