Political Correspondent The ruling party's next generation of leaders will soon draw up a road map for Singapore for the next decade and beyond, said Finance Minister Lawrence Wong yesterday.
The team will engage stakeholders from different fields - the unions and the people and private sector - to hear their thoughts on the economy, healthcare, housing, education and other areas, said Mr Wong in a speech at the May Day Rally.
"The 4G team and I will lead an exercise to refresh our social compact... We will consider what we need to do differently, but also affirm what is being done well and how we can do it even better." Mr Wong was announced as leader of the People's Action Party's fourth-generation (4G) team on April 14, paving the way for him to be the country's next prime minister.
Yesterday, he said that the exercise would not be just about what the Government can do for the people, but also, as Singapore has learnt during the pandemic, what everyone can do for one another. "And how we can all collectively contribute towards building a better society that embodies the values we stand for," said Mr Wong.
