As much as we want to remain a neutral party among the superpower tensions and not picking sides, are we leaning towards one side in terms of economic and military policies? When the inevitable comes, how should the government choose?

Due to our geographical location, it is clear that we're being 'used' as deterrance to another superpower. How should we deal with this?

More programs had been put in place to take care of the lower income group. The resources would probably come from the higher income group of the community. If attracting foreign talent is not managed carefully, our middle income group (mostly PMEBs i guess…) may need help soon too, if their jobs are affected. This may upset our system further. Not saying we should not attract foreign talents, more control is needed.

People don’t understand that the repealing of 377A and the inclusion to the definition of marriage in the constitution are two separate matters. The definition of marriage being between man and woman is preserved and is not subject to challenge in the court of law. Is repealing 377A then a consolation prize for the LGBTQ community rather than progress for them?

Attracting foreign talents purely based on salary threshold does not necessarily bring in the desire talents in the areas that singpaore needs. Also, the overseas salary level may be a result of the supply and demand situation there, cost of living, exchange rate differences etc, and thus it is not a good indicator of ability and competencies.

Keep on raising salary criteria may not help in long term. Quantum of work needs to be done. If employers are unable to find right local talent they will need to hire high cost foreigners. But within 2-3 years they would need to move those functions to overseas in order for their business to remain viable. Which results in loss-loss, business and locals both especially for white collar jobs
We need to look into this holistically and not just keep pushing entry level salaries
