Thoughts on Ministerial Statement on Continued Support for Workers and Jobs

DPM Heng Swee Keat sharing his latest support measures to help Singapore weather the COVID-19 pandemic.

Three key observations.

1. Few governments have gone so far. A $100B draw-down to save critical sectors and as many jobs as is possible, is no small decision or feat.

2. Things could have been much worse.

3. Things however may get worse before they get better, especially during a global crisis such as this. So every gesture of love and outreach to those in need, by everyone of us, matters.

Jiayou, us people of Singapore!
