Singapore

AMID geopolitical and economic uncertainties, it is critical for countries and international organisations to continue to work closely together towards long-term, sustainable development, said Finance Minister Heng Swee Keat on Sunday.

He called on local and foreign labour ministers and tripartite leaders attending a conference on work this week to grow and develop their citizens, create different learning pathways for different learning needs, and utilise labour more productively so that workers can lead better and meaningful lives.
