15:40 Min

Security, resilience and sustainability are necessary foundations for Singapore’s digital economy, said MP Sharael Taha. Regulation is only one side of the equation; the other is ambition, he said. Speaking in parliament on Tuesday (Oct 6), he stressed the need to regulate data centres to be more efficient and resilient, as well as demand that scarce resources are used responsibly. At the same time, the government must create the conditions for Singapore to capture the next generation of cloud compute and AI investments in a balanced way, he said. The challenge is to achieve intelligent growth, as well as more compute and economic value and greater strategic capability from every unit of scarce energy, he added.
