SINGAPORE - Ahead of Finance Minister Lawrence Wong's Budget round-up speech on Wednesday (March 2), MPs on Tuesday raised a host of questions and made proposals. There were three broad themes: taxes, labour issues ranging from better wages to work prospects for local workers, and social issues such as eldercare and education.
A few of the MPs' observations stood out either because they provided a fresh take, made suggestions that could be actionable, or reiterated earlier proposals worth adopting.
