Electricity up again, public transport now is 92 cents minimum fare for adult, COE 100k soon, 5rm HDB resale broke 1mil. Tell me what kind of budget can help a ITE, poly or uni grad? How to help low income and middle income Singaporeans?

[sgfuture]

More GST voucher to cover the increases in transportation fares, electricity bills, gases bills and GSTs....

All BIG TECH love the idea of digital vaccine passports, digital currency and the digital identity.

Finance Minister Lawrence Wong is tasked to deliver all this to Singaporeans.

I hope to hear more TAXES, Tariff Hikes, carbon tax etc. We must find new innovative ways to top up the coffers in the name of national interest. How about Global Warming, Save the Pandas etc? Fingers crossed. But lets sugar coat it

Every year the person that holds the Finance Minister says the same thing, to shore support for the citizen that was caught in between the have and the have not. The same thing happens, the unfortunate have not was left in the lurch because the rules remains. That is some member/s of your family earns more.
Does the FM knows that they earns more but not necessary that they contribute more to the family. Basing on what type of flat you stay also one of the category that’s matters whether support comes your way. The best way is to look at their account and you can clear see who are those have not.

[akzmin]

Just close the comment section, better. No need for people to comment as everyday the same people giving negative comments. Actually in real life it is still blessing but the comments here are always unhealthy.
