My Thoughts B4 The Singapore Budget Statement

  • Host mega clubbing events where concert-goers pay one fee & club around the world for a month
  • Develop more unique reality TV programmes in Singapore
  • Allow more youths to balance E-commerce activities with their studies.
  • Encourage more Singaporeans to study locally - many distance learning courses are of high quality.
  • Use the coming YOG (Youth Olympics) as an opportunity to build up and improve infrastructure in Singapore.
  • Target more ASEAN tourists visitors to Singapore - use their children, who are already schooling in Singapore, as tourist ambassadors.
  • To boost tourism, encourage a combined yearly pass where tourists get discounts to hotels, F&B within the ASEAN region.
  • Build more hostels and enlarge the Education Sector in Singapore.
  • Get the 3 local Unis (NUS, NTU, SMU) to combine resources and expertise in order to nurture Singapore's first Nobel Prize Winning team.
  • Singapore has the expertise to develop Examination Curriculum/Test-Papers especially in Mathematics and Science.
  • Singapore government should consider charging a consulting fee to help countries develop their own statutory boards like education and healthcare. This consulting fee can then be put back to our national reserves.
  • Singapore should create a "super-mentor team" comprising of Minister Mentor Lee, Senior Minister Goh Chok Tong and ex-top Civil Servants who provide consultation for developing countries and paid by IMF - a percentage will be put into our national reserves.
