A heated debate in parliament saw the PAP government reject PSP NCMP Leong Mun Wai’s call to “reimagine” policies addressing Singapore’s low fertility rate, citing ongoing efforts under Forward SG.
Minister in the Prime Minister's Office Indranee Rajah opposed the proposal, linking it to PSP’s Affordable Homes Scheme, which she deemed problematic due to its financial implications.

Life in Singapore is becoming more & more stressful as the cost of living becomes more & more difficult for the low income citizens. The prices of HDB flats kept increasing. Transport fares and food also kept increasing. The past two months at Dawson, two youths ages 19 and 20 committed suicide by jumping down from a block of flat. What’s the reason for them to end their lives were not announced. We cannot imagined the kind of pain their parents are going through. It makes a lot of young couples very scared of having children. General election is around the corner. Singapore needs more opposition members like Lee Mun Wai to be voted in to check the PAP government. Certain cabinet ministers should be removed due to their inabilities to control the prices of public housing and public transport fares which have brought hardships to many ordinary Singaporeans.

NYP meaning what? Nanyang Polytechnic? What were you working as there, and why did they let you go? Gahmen wants high birth rate, because it is both easy money and cheap labour for them !! On one hand, they get Free CPF contributions from the Singaporean children, plus their employers, and those who are males, have to serve National Service, which is dirt cheap manpower for them !! It is a Win Win deal for the gahmen !! Of course they want Singaporeans to have a lot of kids, so they can have a lot of slaves to leech on in the future !!!

PAP policy is the main reason for TFR to go this low and lower. PAP is a total disaster to Singapore and Singaporeans. We need to hold PAP and the Government to account for their failure in ensuring they put Singaporeans first in any policy making. They will definitely be the cause for the doom of Singapore.

Besides looking at the education aspect, pls look at the employment aspect. A rosy picture is painted in the papers but on the ground, many young people aren’t able to find work related to their field of study. A good example is IT- by hiring foreign workers to plug a gap in the recent years and in the past, we now have a situation where firms prefer to bring in cheaper FW and skip hiring our new grads/ locals with relevant experience. How will the government address this situation where firms say “Fresh grads welcome to apply. Three to five year relevant experiences needed.” It’s like putting the cart before the horse in terms of expectations no?

Singapore government is increasingly becoming imperialistic and bureaucratic, refusing to go back to basic to change what is needed. The government is too comfortable in their own wealth and power. PAP is no longer the honest nation-building political party that takes care of its people, like what Lee Kwan Yew had done. With the passing of LKY, the cohorts of ministers are becoming less and less in touch with their bases. Her example, the HDB is getting smaller and more expensive. Hpw is that an improvement? Where is the space, time and money to have more children. All that "progress/advancement" she mentioned are all very superficial. Without correcting the underlying problems, eventally all will come tumbling down.

Would the Minister kindly quantify cost of $400M when TFR is below plan? Who are we paying to and how much? Would be more respectable if ruling party acknowledged that their actions are insufficient and will continue reviewing alternatives and working with oppositions to achieve the national objectives. Comparing our TFR against other countries is not good optics, our ministers are paid more. Much more. Thank you Mr. Leong Mun Wai for your speech, we do appreciate your elaboration on the “how” as well as how it would be financed. It’s ok if the ruling party adopts it. We hear it from you first. We are aware of Dr Chee soon Quan’s proposal adopted by the ruling party. We know it was mentioned x years earlier. End of the day, national interest takes precedence.

Are you sure pap is getting the correct person(Minister Indranee) as a minister? TFR(Total Fertility Rate) at 0.97(Is lower than the rest by 37%) versus the rest if the world at 1.5+ is definitely very very alarming and LMW is correct to call it as nationall emergency. Gov policy should b pragmatic and should be measured if it yield result. Is not just we implement this and that and are hopeful it gets better..This is and cannot be a global trend, else Elon Musk would not have commented that Singapore will go extinct. kzbin.info/www/bejne/g5nSaKF6j72YrMksi=PeB8h5QORzmw_r1i kzbin.info/www/bejne/gauYqoepm8x0ntksi=xp54SKmBlK1VhGol kzbin.info/www/bejne/qpyYfKKNitytbLMsi=-_8EIKjZ8p4OwrPB

It is sad that some of sg ministers and the current PM did not set themselves as examples of being proud parents themselves. They are childless, by choice or they don't want to go through the trouble and pain of having kids through IVF. Thus, it will be very difficult for them to understand what it means to have their own kids and for couples who hope to have kids through IVF but too costly. However, the least they should do is to support those who wish to have kids and need assistance. Having low TFR is truly a national emergency now because children will only be born 9 months later, or 5-10 years later for those who need to try having kids via IVF.

The utmost first priority by any party whether left or right involved is to understand the very problems that are currently facing the people/the citizens of the country.. Afterall the ones sitting there are foremost selected by the people and are to serve the citizens/nation's interest first..that should always be the case.. Citizens not residents first should be the norm - not forgetting a higher numeration of salaries to distinguish between a citizen and all others... Not by a small numeration... Afterall citizens should be rewarded accordingly of their loyalty to the nation. Look at how the leader of a bigger country can achieve and do the impossible in less than a week... If u have the heart for the nation and for the people, anything is possible.. Afterall, how will anyone no matter the greatest of status or power be able to explain to the Supreme Judge in Heaven for all their judgements made onto their people on earth... So think far, be wise, be humble and have some empathy to the very people that any party serves or works for - no matter the power or greatness of any party.. Nothing goes on forever or works forever... Nothing on earth is for eternity or kept with u in ur possession forever... All things must come to an end..

After hearing this debate, it occured to me that in the past eg. before 1980 perhaps etc... people just expected that they enter the workforce, get married, have children, and find a way to retire comfortably. Today's youth's aspirations are indeed different. Perhaps work needs to start from the upbringing, be it from parents, schools, societal focus etc.. Today's focus on progress and dreams of what one can achieve, should be balanced with expectations that we also need to pass on our experiences to a next generation. If all the youths continue to think like that we don't need to wait for a meteorite... Imagine the last generation who will walk this earth and they are the youngest person they'll ever see in their lives...

Oh my, she is not answering Leong's questions and pretended not to understand them while we non-ministers could fully understand what Leong had been saying. I think she needs to resign. The second pretty minister is as out of touch with people in their 30s or 40s. Young people she cited (17 - 24 years old) of course will not think of having babies. At this young age they just want to make money first. However, as they approach to 40 years old or beyond, that's where they want to have babies if they are married. I give up on hearing all these ministers avoiding questions juts like the democrats always do.

We are well aware that the aspirations of young people has changed, but did we admit the real reasons why is that so? Mr Leong mentioned "setting target" is to find out the results after we made changes to the policies, not to force people to get married and have childrens like what he said. It is not difficult to understand... 😅

Many couples I know in their 30s wanted to have children although they didn't want to have kids when they were younger. However, by this age, their fertility rates have gone down. They need to spend lots of time and money to try having children through IVF. However, the support from gov for IVF in hospitals is super slow and low . Thus by the time a couple could have their first kid through IVF (if successful) would be about 5-8 years later and the couple would have become old parents in their 40s or older. So Leong's proposal is urgently needed by Singaporean couples who wished to have children.

Low TFR is largely due to cost of living crisis and let me point out the main culprits... PAP spent 100 billion or 20% of GDP compared to 3% to 10% in other countries as the ex-president approved without any scrutiny. Up to 4x times more! This results in increasing GST 2 times to 9% to restore reserves causing the cost of living crisis. Why is no one questioning how money is spent? I see so much wastage. Someone i know lived overseas for 8 years prior to covid but was given 9K!!! I dont know which individuals or businesses does not deserve the lavish sums of cash, but someone needs to look into the records. So much talk about being prudent and it took just one crisis to clean out the reserves! 😮😮😮

Instead of going around reimagining things, why not just propose that those who are living in 3 rm hdb flats with two child can have a second chance to apply for a 4 rm or 5 rm BTO without any penalty and with same chance as a first timer applicant. This will encourage young couples to get a smaller HDB flat and plan for at least to have two child and later to be able to upgrade to a bigger flat without the high cost of getting a bigger resale HDB flat.

The speaker don't sound very smart. The policies don't work. The root of the problem is - everything too costly.

Is the non-answering by way of nitpicking the question posed by the questioner a sign of Defensive tactic that could possibly suggest a Fear of directly responding to tough questions? Well done by PSP for being a thorn in the butt of something
