    A SUGAR tax, incentives for green investment, and a tax regime that is friendlier to startups are among Deloitte Singapore's Budget 2019 recommendations, released on Thursday.

    Deloitte expects this year's Budget "to be a case of 'steady as she goes'," with no major mid-course corrections expected amid steady economic growth and continued implementation of strategies set in 2017 by the Committee for the Future Economy.
