Our founding Secretary-General didn’t say this in recent times in response to AI. He said it in 1999.
Today, we reflect on Mr Lee Kuan Yew's pragmatism. He knew decades ago that "learning and relearning" would be our greatest strength.
This message is more relevant than ever today. As we remember him, let's recommit to the spirit of adaptability that defines Singapore.

With global rivalries heating up and rules being tested, Vikram Nair breaks down Singapore’s survival strategy.
The strategy is simple but tough: Principles + Pragmatism.
Instead of choosing sides in power competitions, Singapore stays grounded in international law and keeps trade doors open. It is a constant balancing act, but staying resilient and principled is how we navigate a much more uncertain global landscape.

Transport = Time with Family
Valerie Lee shared a perspective often overlooked: better bus frequencies and MRT lines aren't just about infrastructure and logistics. They are about returning time.
Whether it’s 10 more minutes to check in on an elderly parent or a quicker trip home to see the kids, it’s a small but significant way to help bridge the gap for those balancing work and family.

Is AI the real answer to the cost-of-living?
We often talk about cost-of-living in terms of immediate help, but Mariam Jaafar highlighted the long-term fix: securing high-wage jobs for the future.
As AI takes over routine tasks, the jobs of tomorrow will be about orchestrating and supervising AI.
What this means for us:
🌐 New Skills: We need the confidence to question and deploy AI, not just follow it.
🌐 Support for All: Using "AI Coaches" to ensure everyone, regardless of their starting point, has a fair shot at these opportunities.
🌐 Singapore as a Hub: By building these systems here, we keep the productivity and the better paychecks right here at home.

With global economic shifts hitting home, the fear of retrenchment is real. Ng Chee Meng spoke about the need for Advance Retrenchment Notifications.
Why this matters:
💼 It’s about getting unions into the room before the decision is final, not just reacting to the fallout after.
💼 Early notice allows for course correction by finding ways to adapt or providing tangible support to workers immediately.
💼 This isn't about blocking business flexibility. It is tripartism in action to make sure companies and unions work together to protect livelihoods.
In a disrupted world, we need to be proactive in securing our workers' futures.

Global tensions might feel far away, but the impact is felt right here — at the petrol pump, in our hospitals, and in our job security.
Your PAP MPs didn’t just listen to the Ministerial Statements. They pressed the Government for answers that ensure Singaporeans are shielded from the fallout.

When costs go up, the natural question is: "Can’t the Government just cap the price?" It sounds simple, but for a nation that imports every drop of fuel, the reality is more complex.
Gan Siow Huang breaks down why we prioritise targeted support over artificial caps. By ensuring fair competition and directing help to those who need it most - like our platform workers and taxi drivers - we keep our city moving while protecting the most vulnerable.
