Singaporeans do not trust the PAP government with our reserves. This PAP government is corrupt(ref minister SI), have perceived conflict of interests(ref minister KS and VB), and immoral(ref speaker TCJ). PAP government cannot be trusted to manage the reserves in the best interest of Singaporeans. There must be a new approach to managing the reserves and ultimately return it proportionately in full to all Singaporeans. The new government or President(yes, Singapore's President has political powers when dealing with the reserves) must develop a plan to systematically liquidate all assets in the reserves over a period of no more than two office terms at fair market value, then make a one-off endowment to all Singaporeans. This plan can eliminate corruption by corrupt PAP officials, eliminate Singaporeans' dependence on government handouts, and solve cost of living problem for Singaporeans. If Singaporeans support this plan, suggest it to your MPs or Presidential candidates and hit the like button below.

People who keep wanting the country to spend the reserves while they complain about stagnating wages (which have been rising btw), $1 increase in caipng, yet are building their wealth in CPF, owning multiple properties, etc. are in other words just want the government to “distribute” the reserves and make it their own business to save and spend. However what this will lead to is that the government increasingly loses the ability to ensure redistribution principle (across wealth and across generations) in spending, and this will also eventually lead to furthering inequality between the haves and have-nots and the present and future. This is a great series because it helps us understand, think about and take ownership in a public good that is technically an inheritance from our founding fathers but also our responsibility to leave for future generations.

Jamus Lim from WP was questioning PM Lee why Singapore shouldn't have a 3rd key to gain access to our reserves. Now that Lawrence Wong has explained how our reserves are being used as guarded secret weapon against foreigner threat to attack Singapore Dollar, I would like to ask Jamus how long has he been in public service and why should Singaporeans trust WP when 3 prominent WP members and MP were caught lying no just to Singapore, but even to there leader. And how can WP be trusted when their leader is clueless about what happened under his nose? Such as Leon and Nicole scandal? What happen if the 3rd key decided to sabotage Singapore by revealing our secret to foreigners such as George Soros? Take it to the grave?

Many people recount that for top businessmen, money is longer the motivation. It is the accomplishment, and the satisfaction that one has done one's best, and the assets are there to mark the successes. This is the way i see our Gov. Personal wealth is not a motivation for their performances. If it were, our national reserves would have been raided long ago. If money is not a motivation, then why are they being paid so much, one might ask. Actually, by today's standards, their salaries isn't all that high. Lot's of people make more money than our Ministers, who carry the Nation's burdens on their shoulders. From profitable small private companies to bank CEOs, a couple of million a year isn't all that spectacular. And i am sure, that as selfless as our Ministers are, they still want to have a sense of financial self worth, and a small inheritance for their children. I guess some people confuse excellent statesmen for a volunteer charity worker.

They cannot take more people but growth is needed. Ageing, migration of young, does the World want to invest in SG and not other countries in Asia lot of factors need to be balanced for SG. I do think SG is well maintained and they dont give freebees just like that to their people. However, they also dont over encourgae migrant population. Come, work, earn, pay taxes but not all can be accomodated in SG and its very fair. If all shift to SG where would youth and old of SG would go.. if someone truly dedicates to growth of nation should be PRs and not just the ones for powerful passport and then run to another country are not right fit for PRs.

Singapore Reserve is what gives MAS and Singapore the ability to adapt and change course to help Singaporeans without having to beg for help from neighboring countries, world bank or IMF. Many Singaporeans are still clueless about how small Singapore is in size and influence. Without solid reserves, Singapore's currency and assets will be vulnerable to attacks by foreign countries. Singaporeans should be smart not to indulge in fakeness and myths created by those fly-by-night political activists hoping to divide and conquer Singapore. e.g. Jamus Lim ask for a 3rd key to access to reserves. My question to him is, how long have you been in public service and why should any Singaporeans trust what WP said when 3 prominent members from WP were caught lying to their own leader?

Singaporeans do not trust the PAP government with our reserves. This PAP government is corrupt(ref minister SI), have perceived conflict of interests(ref minister KS and VB), and immoral(ref speaker TCJ). PAP government cannot be trusted to manage the reserves in the best interest of Singaporeans. There must be a new approach to managing the reserves and ultimately return it proportionately in full to all Singaporeans. The new government or President(yes, Singapore's President has political powers when dealing with the reserves) must develop a plan to systematically liquidate all assets in the reserves over a period of no more than two office terms at fair market value, then make a one-off endowment to all Singaporeans. This plan can eliminate corruption by corrupt PAP officials, eliminate Singaporeans' dependence on government handouts, and solve cost of living problem for Singaporeans.

What else can the ordinary Singaporeans do? They have to work more than one job to keep up with the rising cost of living. No time to enjoy life, if you're not super rich as the politicians, investors, and some expats business employees. The older generation there are not well off. Some were born before the compulsory personal saving scheme was introduced. Their children help to an extent, or are not cared for. Lonely lost old people in the housing complex early in the morning.

The Singaporean government has implemented a system to safeguard its financial reserves, which include financial assets, land, and companies. These are considered valuable assets that could be converted, sold, or pledged in times of need. To ensure the protection of these reserves, the government has identified six entities, including MAS, GIC, and CPF, that have oversight from an elected president who has veto power over key names on the board and CEO. The decision to implement such a system was made in 1984 by former Prime Minister Lee Kuan Yew, and since then, refinements and modifications have been made to the arrangements for the elected president and the second key. The fundamental turning point was the decision to crystallize the idea and implement such a system. The system is in place to prevent a rogue government from raiding the reserves and to set guide rails and limits for the proper operation of a good government. While there are other assets and parts of the government that are not covered under this system, the identified entities and assets are considered the big pieces that need protection.

@@avarmauk You're talking about gross debt, not net debt. If you're talking about "serious money problems", Singapore is one of the least likely countries to fit what you're trying to illustrate. In a more simplified manner, if every creditor that has loaned Singapore money decided to claim the money back from Singapore at the same time, we would have no problems paying it all back. Our reserves have more than enough to cover that sum.

It definitely wasn't a dig at Singapore which is probably the best managed country I've ever been to.

The part about learning from how American Ivy league colleges manage their endowment funds was actually quite refreshingly new knowledge and surprising for me. But I can see and I know that a lot of people - probably most Singaporeans - weren't aware of a lot of this info. So, thanks again PM and CNA! It's pretty much like listening to a school class hehehe P.s. I would add that if we raided our savings and went on a spending spree, that would generate high inflation in the short-medium term, which is reason in itself to not spend it uncontrollably/unsustainably.
