Conducted by Milieu Insight from 17 to 19 February, the survey included 1,002 respondents, with 62% expressing dissatisfaction with the proposed initiatives.
Notably, individuals in the 35 to 44 age group were particularly adamant that the measures announced on February 16 did not adequately address their concerns.
A recent survey indicates that six out of ten Singaporeans believe that the government’s latest budget measures fall short in addressing the challenges posed by the increasing cost of living.
While acknowledging the S$1.9 billion Assurance Package aimed at assisting Singaporeans in managing the cost of living, Ms Poa cautioned that these measures are short-term.
Leong Mun Wai PSP discusses the economic strains faced by Singaporeans in one of the world’s most expensive cities and criticizes the government’s current policies as insufficient, advocating for substantial policy changes.
Despite DPM Wong’s reassurances regarding the government’s commitment to providing increased support to households, many Singaporeans find it challenging not to view this year’s Budget announcement through the lens of an “Election Budget.”
Hazel Poa PSP expressed the hope that the government’s focus would shift towards implementing fundamental changes, enabling Singaporeans to enhance their real wages and reducing reliance on handouts for a significant portion of the population.
Opposition leaders mock DPM Wong’s 2024 Budget as “Election Budget”
Earlier, when interviewed by Singapore media, Hazel Poa, Non-Constituency Member of Parliament (NCMP) from the Progress Singapore Party (PSP), characterized Budget 2024 as resembling an “election budget” with the absence of additional taxes.
