These include a greater helping hand for groups - such as those who are less well-off, mid-career workers and seniors - through means like additional financial support and improved infrastructure.
There will also be more assurances that Singaporeans’ basic needs at every life stage will be met, such as in education, retirement, healthcare and housing.
The 180-page Forward Singapore report unveiled on Friday (Oct 27) also articulated the mindset shifts required for Singapore to achieve the goals set out, such as for wider definitions of success and a stronger sense of collective responsibility towards one another.

Let me say. Nonsense and Rubbish. Why. How come MSF/ Comcare woodland branch make senior citizen life difficult. Why why why
JUST RETURN CPF.....SICK CPF CEO
Their BS not only now and it has been like that for at least a decade. Sweat talk as GE is coming. Our livelihoods have not been better but from bad to worse to worst since LHL is PM.
The Pledge or The Biggest Lie?
"We, the citizens of Singapore,
pledge ourselves as one united people,
regardless of race, language or religion,
to build a democratic society
based on justice and equality
so as to achieve happiness, prosperity
and progress for our nation."
Assemble 100 PAP scholars and debate with the Great Asia lah.
Ha ha ha!
People managers who get retrenched in middle age and beyond would find it hard to develop skills that put them in competition with younger ones who are able to accept lower salary.
The SG Conversation was launched in 2012 soon after (PAP) lost its first (GRC) to Workers’ Party in the General Election 2011. Public sentiments were against the incumbent due to unhappiness over foreign labour and many other issues.
Back does not ache when you talk standing straight.
80 percent of Singaporeans don't own any property as most properties are 99 years leasehold or leasehold. You're just renting. Very expensive rent too. Government is very clever to give citizens the mirage of owning property. So easy to fool.
99 years leasehold is better than renting because one pays much lower price monthly than renting. Example, you pay for a BTO 5-room for nearly 300K so if you treat it as renting, monthly payment is about 252 and no changes in price for 99 years whereas renting costs more and at times pricing may change.
orh okay~ then you don';t subscribe to this system, we don't need you :)
N lease of vehicle 🚗 also 10 yrs lease 😅
Then if you sell your HDB, you don't keep the profit? since the property is technically not yours?
😢😢😢
When people at the top have distance themselves from the ground, all become empty talks.
Not only High Profile Distancing But just look at Changes in Laws & Public Policy since LKY passed . Many by sheer Coincidence also covertly make it Easy to Explain things away &/or Difficult to Dig… ie. Cyber , PDPA, POFMA etc 😊 … Coincidence, Phenomena, Engineered?? 🤔
For Indra, pls also ask ladies to be less demanding, want the guys to provide but yet now want this and want that.. want both the cake and eat it. Want the guys to be more involves in family ? Sure, but ensure that ladies don’t expect guys to pay for all the bills, don’t complain if the guy do not bring home more of the bacon, do not assume that guys career determine his worth , and men can also get alimony if the lady earns more and don’t assume that only mothers get custody of the kids. Be fair if you want fair and do not be one sided .. should look at it holistically.
If Forward Singapore’s intention is indeed to find solutions for what Singaporeans had already told the government ten years ago, does it mean that the government has no solutions or idea of how to address those issues? And that this initiative is an attempt to crowdsource ideas that the government with the highest paid civil servants in the world can then use to perform their job?
😢😢😢
I tried but my wife say this not right that cannot.... what to do~~
When lndranee becomes the PM he will be very shock in 2024/2025
This is Pre General election publicity
Hardwarezone is not impressed.
SICK GOV.....VERY VERY SICK
BACKWARD.....MORE APPROPRIATE......PAY AND PAY.....UP AND UP
ADVICE TO OUR YOUNG....GET A FREEHOLD HOME
HDB BTO 99 YEAR LEASE TIMEBOMB.....BIG HEADACHES
200 thousand PAP supporters' inputs? Maybe? Most probably.
Give and set quota for more capable singaporean leadership positions in singapore companies and their overseas companies and give them tasks of grooming next generation.
Ministers, can I volunteer in your forward Singapore cause? I am so motivated now
If the above is untrue, then people will surely wonder why then the government has little or nothing to address those problems since the SG Conversation took place and at the same time, if Forward Singapore would end up in the same manner.
Martin Lee very unhappy
actually, I am more interested in the how and not the slogans
Sg already most expensive city globally. And u are asking to make it more expensive? Paid u millions. Expect u to pay everyone sustainable wage, and have cpf for retirement. Key is landlords, and businesses are eating too much margin. Ppl are left with no savings, and cpf eaten by hdb and medical bills. Solve the root cause, not take the easy way out by asking ppl to pay more. Sg is already most expensive city globally.. i repeat.
Why not solve the high cost of living first. Housing and car are so ridiculously expensive.
Young couples cannot afford living in Singapore. Better to immigrate to other countries where one can afford big car and house. Furthermore, the house and land is yours and no such thing as leasehold which is ridiculous.
What is going to happen if every Singaporean can afford a car? It is not true that young couples cannot afford to live in Singapore. It depends on their expectations in terms of their quality of life and standard of living
After you pass on, everything does not belong to you anymore.
Depriving ownership of cars to the middle income earners and giving this to the more privileged citizen like yourself is disgusting.
@@peterleefookkee3148 There's nothing disgusting about it. Unless I get to earn more, I too cannot afford to own a car when my current one is due to be scrapped. However, I am not sore about it because I have always believed that nobody owes me a living or a certain quality of life and standard of living . There are lots of opportunities out there. If I can't do as well as others, it's due to my own inability. I have to do some self-reflection and see what I can do to help myself instead of blaming the government or the society.
Even if we shared our ideas it will get shot like what happened to PSP AND WP proposals
Ideas can be shared but it doesn't mean the government has to adopt them if they are not for the good of the country. They have to look at the big picture
The 4G leaders are ambitious, they want all Singaporean taking part in creative and innovative works to transform Singapore into popular world. The people must unit and work together with government to write another new chapter of success story for Singapore.
Waste time
As singapore had changed to a multi-nation country so even with the saf also no use, it's the pap party mistakes and there's no way to u-turn back, good luck all.
May I know what are the mistakes you are referring to?
Back to b.c. living in cave no more danger no more 5c,, make as much babies as you likes. Simple life why makes life so complicated.
Redefine success?
He meant graduates doing manual jobs for S$3000 per month and still feel good?
Naive, if you think this little image of Lee 阿斗 can stir titanic-Singapore away from the ice-berge.
Ha ha ha!
Whatever la! All talks! My daughter graduated Uni in IT but cannot find a job and have to work at fast food instead!
My elder daughter studied in Nus and graduated. two years ago while my younger one graduated from Ntu this year. My elder one found a job before graduation while my younger one found one within 3 months. From what I know, their peers have no problem landing a job. Either your daughter is picky or she cannot impress the interviewers. Find the root cause of the problem. It's not the government's fault.
Maybe she will soon become a manager in that restaurant because she has good qualifications.
hahaha your daughter studied some undesirable degree is it?
@@Nubz111 One studied law while the other studied psychology. I have friends' children who studied computer science, engineering, business, biomedical and found a job before or not long after graduation
Those who can find jobs are working at SMEs and startups, and pay is not the same across all companies, working location, company culture and pay are all determining factors. Some MNCs low pay long hours nobody wants that anymore. If got enough savings try investing with online brokerage small amount in USA stocks, amazon kindle affiliate also can get income.
❤ all always in our prayer ... IN THIS WORLD OF COMMON GRACE AND SPIRITUAL WARFARE ......WE LOVE SINGAPORE ,,ALL LEADERS , YOUR UNCONDITIONAL LOVE FOREVER A BLESSING TO US ... -- BODY , SOUL , SPIRIT ......❤ ❤ ❤ ❤
How can it be dangerous n unsafe when you yourself your team 84 of them can steady steady eat beehoon and not affected by inflation and high cost living and giving support like beggars..how can we close the gap between your group n general public so that we can ve like u,any policy fails your position n pay still goes into your pocket..Talk is cheap n talk with no direct impact even cheaper..lky times help citizen to generate hdb at 40k to now 500k...Your 4g generation 500k to nothing but in debt..see this math..😂🤣😅
😢😢😢
MOFA Taiwan denounces George Yeo’s controversial remarks
Yeo’s recent recommendations for Taiwan to consider joining a “commonwealth” with China and pursuing a “One China” path have drawn significant condemnation from Taiwan.
The ministry asserted that Yeo’s comments were “completely inconsistent with the facts, clearly biased, and at odds with the understanding of most democratic countries in the region.”
Furthermore, they contended that Yeo’s personal opinions not only fail to contribute to regional peace and stable development but also harm the positive development of Taiwan-U.S. relations and Taiwan-Singapore relations.
The ministry voiced its profound regret over Yeo’s comments and urged against becoming a conduit for China’s authoritarian agenda.
This is to prevent any perception of assisting the Chinese government in its propaganda efforts or making inappropriate statements that could lead to social divisions and misunderstandings in Taiwanese society, ” said the ministry in the statement.
George Yeo already retired from politics in 2011. So not related anymore.
Taiwan province is not a country by itself China has the rights to it.
Also don't forget the pap party love to give the people jabs and the people also love to take jabs, so good luck to them.
They are caring and responsible so be grateful.
