White Paper on Singapore Women’s Development: Jamus Lim on true workplace gender equality
The action points outlined in the White Paper on Singapore Women’s Development represent a positive step in advancing the cause of true gender equality in the workplace but they "betray a somewhat lack of ambition", said MP Jamus Lim. Speaking in Parliament on Tuesday (Apr 5), he said that while he supports the motion, he found the report "sanguine" in the role that the Government, through the Public Service, can play in ushering in such positive changes in the workplace. “Charity surely begins at home and the deafening silence on how the demonstration effect of Government leadership by rolling out the proposed actions decisively within the Civil Service strikes me as inexplicable and honestly, somewhat peculiar," he said.
