PM: Three goals S'pore should achieve to show it has progressed
They are: good jobs, higher fertility rate, and capable govt trusted by people
[SINGAPORE] Good jobs for the people, more babies and a capable government at the helm are three goals Singapore should achieve if the country is to say it has progressed, said Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong.
These are all "easy to state, but very hard to achieve", he said at an annual ministerial forum at the Nanyang Technological University (NTU) last night.
That Singaporeans can be in good jobs would mean that the economy is growing and that investments are flowing in, Mr Lee told his 1,000-strong audience during a two-hour dialogue organised by NTU's Student Union.
