Review, adapt policies as tackling inequality becomes tougher: Maliki

Singapore

AS reducing inequality and sustaining social mobility becomes harder over time, Singapore must monitor, review and adapt its policies as needed, said Second Minister for Education and for Foreign Affairs Maliki Osman on Thursday, the fourth day of debate on the President's address.

This includes coming to a societal consensus on a basic standard of living, ensuring absolute and not just relative mobility, and providing equal opportunities.
