I cannot speak for the individuals whose choices have affected our world and our lives, but I can represent myself as I am.
I am proud and blessed to be human, and I appreciate all the different cultures which shaped me into who I am today. We are all incredible creatures of the Universe with equal blessings, capabilities and time, and being able to experience this life with the people we love and doing what we love everyday has brought nothing but happiness and joy; and I’m confident that there are a lot of people like me in this world who feel the same way. This is why we need to protect what we love by doing what we feel is right, deep in our purest hearts, even if it’s uncomfortable. We can’t do it alone and we don’t have to do it alone.
There is nothing new when we see ignorant individuals hiding behind the comforts of their excuses to divide and blame specific groups instead of taking the necessary and responsible actions in order to be the leaders we desperately need in these dark times. We are all leaders within our families, communities, professions and our personal selves. Together we can bring positive change to our lives by contributing our daily blessings towards unity and positive action. Every human being is entitled to pursue a life valued at our highest potential. If we must judge, judge the actions of those responsible, and not by their culture or beliefs. Judge the end results from the choices made to be aware of what needs to be done or celebrated. Being able to witness parts of the world uniting together on the road to recovery has not only provided a glimpse of hope for our future but also the miracle of strengthening our values as united human beings. If we must blame, blame ourselves for not taking good care of the needs of our world. I believe, not in perfection, but in growth and self-learning as there will always be room for improvement, even at the mountain top.
Understand that in most countries where human rights and freedom of speech are rarely protected and practiced, because the reality is, freedom is just not a public luxury for the majority. We need to give ourselves the chance to understand deeply and work out each other’s differences calmly instead of using fear to fuel our hatred and insecurities. Hateful words too often lead to hateful actions that can harm millions of lives, as we have witnessed throughout our history. Only clowns would be stupid enough to repeat them. Only the selfish would use this opportunity for their own benefit. If you were to imagine yourself at the end of all that is, ask yourself: what have you done or even said to contribute to our evolution and inner growth?
While our World fights bravely against the unknown, it’s clear to see that no matter the differences between our peoples and cultures, we are all in this together. This epidemic sees no color, respects no class or age, and recognizes only the best values of life. Victory only blesses the united, and now more so than ever, we must focus all our efforts, skills and resources to work with one another. Heroic examples set by all our health care workers, supermarket staff, restaurant cooks, delivery men and women, volunteers, inspiring leaders and everyone on the frontline providing and protecting all of us around the world. They are the true heroes of humanity, our true guardian angels. Thank you. - Al Rocco
我不能代表那些选择影响了我们的世界和生活的人,但我可以代表我自己。
作为人类,我感到自豪和幸福,我欣赏所有不同的文化,是它们造就了今天的我。我们都是宇宙中奇妙的生物,生来平等,都有权利拥有祝福、能力和时间,能够和所爱的人一起经历此生,和每天做自己热爱的事,带给我的只有幸福和快乐。我相信这个世界上有很多像我这样的人,他们有同样的感受。这就是为什么即使过程艰辛,我们也要拼尽全力遵循我们的内心,做自己认为正确的事情, 来保护我们的挚爱。在这个过程中,你不是孤独的,也不会孤独。
我们经常会看到有些无知的个体躲在各种借口堆砌的舒适圈中,分裂和指责特定的群体,而不是在这样一个黑暗的时候,承担一个领袖应该承担的责任和行动。我们都是每个家庭、社区、职业和自我的领导者,当下,通过积极的应对和祈祷,我们可以一起为我们的生活带来积极的改变。每个人都有权利通过最大化发挥自己的潜能追求生命的价值。如果我们一定要评判,那就评判那些理应负起责任的人的行为,而不是批判他们的文化或信仰。通过所做的选择来判断最终的结果,了解需要做什么,需要庆祝什么。能够目睹世界各地在复苏的道路上团结在一起,不仅让我们看到对未来的希望,同时证实我们人类坚守价值观的奇迹。如果我们一定要责备,那就责备我们自己没有好好对待地球对我们的期许。我坚信,我们希望看到的不是完美,而是不断的成长和自我学习,我们总有自我提升的空间,即便你站在山的高峰。
理解在不同体制的国家,对于公民权益和言论自由有着不同的理解与实践。现实是,对大多数人来说,这并不是最主要的公共奢侈品。我们需要给自己一个深度了解,思考和解决彼此分歧的机会,而不是利用恐惧的力量来点燃我们的仇恨和不安全感。负面语言的力量总是会导致可怕的行动,这已经影响了数百万人的生活,我们已经见证了我们的历史。只有小丑才会愚蠢地重复他们的话,只有自私的人才会利用这个机会为自己谋利益。在这一切结束的时候,问问自己,你做了什么,你说了什么,对我们人类的进化以及我们内心的成长有积极的贡献?
当世界勇敢地与未知作斗争的时候,我们可以清楚地看到,无论我们的民族和文化有多大的差异,我们都是捆綁在一起的。流行病不分肤色,不分阶级和年龄,只强调生命的价值。团结就是胜利,现在比以往任何时候都更重要!我们必须集中所有的努力、技术和资源来互相合作。所有的卫生保健工作者、超市工作人员、餐馆厨师、送货员、志愿者、鼓舞人心的领导人,他们为了保护我们奋战在世界各地的第一线,为我们树立了英雄的榜样。他们是人类真正的英雄,我们真正的守护天使。谢谢。- Al Rocco

DPM Tharman Shanmugaratnam presented Budget 2013 this afternoon. His theme was “A better Singapore: Quality growth, An Inclusive Society”.
Our immediate priority is to solve the housing and transport issues. At the same time, we must upgrade our economy through productivity and innovation. Budget 2013 will help our businesses cope with much lower foreign worker growth over the next few years. It also contains schemes to enable every Singaporean to benefit from growth. For example, the Wage Credit Scheme will incentivise employers to raise salaries of their lower-income workers, as the Govt will pay 40% of these salary increases for three years. We will also focus on promoting social mobility, especially through education, so that children from less privileged backgrounds are not disadvantaged in our society.
The Parliament will discuss Budget 2013 in the upcoming weeks. You can visit www.singaporebudget.gov.sg for more details about the Budget. - LHL
We had the Budget today. We are transforming our economy so that we can have quality growth – growth that all Singaporeans will benefit from, and which will allow a better quality of life. And we are taking further steps towards a more inclusive society – starting with the kids, helping lower-income workers, and providing greater economic security for our retirees, including those in the middle-income group.
Here's an extract from the Budget Speech that sets out the main directions our policies are taking. The specifics are in the full speech linked below.
http://www.singaporebudget.gov.sg/budget…/budget_speech.html
BETTER SINGAPORE: QUALITY GROWTH, AN INCLUSIVE SOCIETY
Many Singaporeans, through Our Singapore Conversation platforms, have been sharing their hopes for Singapore – the kind of home we want to build for our families and our children. There has been a rich diversity of views. But a common set of aspirations is emerging, a common vision of the future that Singaporeans want:
• A home with a strong Singaporean identity and sense of belonging
• A Singapore with a robust and vibrant economy, and with good jobs that enable a more fulfilling pace of life
• A home with strong families, and where our seniors can age with dignity
• A society that takes care of the disadvantaged
• A Singapore with affordable living
• A society with greater sense of togetherness, and where the Government and the people have a more collaborative relationship
This is the Singapore that we want to build together.
The Government is making major moves to support this endeavour. Since 2010, we have embarked on major steps to transform our economy so as to create better jobs and allow for a better pace and quality of life. We are also making important shifts in social policies, as announced in last year’s Budget, to foster a fair and more inclusive society.
We will need to make further moves. So that by the end of the decade, we will have a better Singapore, a better future for all Singaporeans.
Immediate Challenges: Housing and Transport
First, we have pressing challenges in housing and transport. The Government will spare no effort in resolving these problems.
We want to reduce the cost of housing relative to the income of young Singaporeans. Prices in the HDB resale market and private market have risen too rapidly in the cycle that began as we recovered from the 2009 economic crisis. We have taken major steps to cool the housing market. We have also ramped up the supply of HDB flats which will help first-time buyers book their flats faster as well as ease prices in the resale market. And we have increased supply of private housing through Government Land Sales. The Minister for National Development will speak more in COS about these immediate challenges as well as how we can ensure affordable, quality housing for Singaporeans over the longer term.
We have to make many improvements in public transport. Congestion and waiting times are a daily problem for Singaporeans. We are ramping up bus capacity, especially feeder services, to improve frequency and add new routes. We are accelerating the rollout of the additional 800 buses that we made provisions for last year. In addition, the Land Transport Authority will be tendering out routes to private operators.
Our rail network will expand by more than 50% by 2021. That is still eight years away. But in the meantime, we will see improvements that will help relieve congestion. Parts of the Downtown Line will start operating from the end of this year, and new trains will be added to existing lines from next year. We will also introduce other measures to reduce crowding, including significantly enhanced incentives for commuters who travel during the “shoulder” periods before and after the morning peak hour. The Minister for Transport will talk about these measures in the COS.
An Economy and Society in Transition
While we fix these immediate problems in housing and transport, we have to press on with our priorities to help Singaporeans have a better quality of life over the medium to long term.
We have to shift gears for an economy and society that is in transition.
We are no longer a developing economy, but we have not achieved the level of productivity and income of an advanced economy. At the same time, our own workforce is growing more slowly, and is gradually getting older.
We must make every effort to achieve quality growth: growth that is achieved mainly through innovation and higher productivity, and growth that will benefit all Singaporeans – our children, working families, our elderly and disabled.
Our strategies for achieving quality growth and an inclusive society are in fact tied inextricably together. Raising productivity is not just our most important economic priority, but enables us to build a better society. Higher productivity is the only sustainable way to raise incomes for ordinary Singaporeans, and provide jobs that give people a sense of responsibility and empowerment. Higher productivity is also necessary for us to shorten working hours over time and allow Singaporeans to enjoy a better work-life balance.
Our society is also facing the pressures of widening income disparities. This is happening in cities globally and in Asia, but it matters more to us because Singapore is not just a city but also a nation. We must take further steps to temper inequality. We also want to do more to enable our seniors to have a sense of economic security and fulfilment in their retirement years.
On both economy and society, therefore, we need to shift our thinking.
In government: where we are reshaping policies and driving new initiatives, especially to sustain social mobility and strengthen support for older Singaporeans.
In the business community: which has to innovate and adjust to the permanent reality of a tight labour market.
In our society at large: where we have to accord ordinary workers not just better pay but greater respect.
In the community: with non-profits and other voluntary groups pursuing the causes we all believe in, and working with an active partner in the government.
And for all of us individuals, to do our best to improve and to contribute to our country in our own ways.
Transforming Our Economy for Better Jobs
We are restructuring our economy. We began this in earnest in 2010, by:
• Tightening foreign worker inflows;
• Supporting enterprises in their efforts to upgrade operations and improve productivity; and
• Investing in our workers by heavily subsidising their training, in every skill.
We need to intensify this economic restructuring and skills upgrading so as to achieve quality growth. Although wages are going up in a tight labour market, productivity has lagged. If we do not do better in raising productivity, we will be caught in a situation where businesses lose competitiveness, and wages eventually stagnate. Both workers and businesses will be worse off.
We must help our SME sector revitalise itself. There are however wide divergences in efficiency amongst SMEs even in the same industries. Restructuring will unfortunately lead to some businesses being winnowed out, but the end result must be a vibrant and sustainable local SME sector. Every support must be provided to help the businesses which bring in more efficient techniques and service models, so they can grow in a tight labour market, and where possible make their mark internationally.
There are already many examples of SMEs transforming themselves, in every sector. For example in furniture manufacturing, local firms are training multi-skilled employees, relocating manpower-intensive activities, developing unique brands and carving a niche for themselves in overseas markets.
To make this economic transition, we must also harness the value of older Singaporeans and design jobs suited for them, as well as for other potential employees who are unable to work regular, full-time schedules. Flexible work practices must become more common, enabling employees to structure their work so that they have time for their families or for personal development like part-time courses. We should also make it possible for more employees to have the option of telecommuting from home or working from “smart work centres” near their homes, like what they have in Amsterdam and Seoul. The Government will work closely with businesses in these efforts.
Building a Fair and Inclusive Society
We are also taking major steps to ensure a fair and more inclusive society.
• First, to sustain social mobility. Meritocracy alone will not assure us of this. We therefore want to do more, starting from early in our children’s lives, to give the best leg up to those who start with a disadvantage. We cannot change the fact that children have different family backgrounds that bring very different advantages and disadvantages. But we want to find every way, at the pre-school and primary school levels, to help our children from poorer or less stable families to develop confidence and the self-belief that gives them aspirations of their own, and to help them catch up when they fall behind. And we will provide pathways to develop every skill and ability, so that every child can discover his strengths as he grows up, and can do well.
• Second, we must do more to mitigate inequality. We are making our fiscal system more progressive, by tilting our taxes and benefits in favour of the lower- and middle-income groups.
Currently:
i. A lower-income older worker receives a significant top-up of his income through Workfare each year.
ii. A middle-income family with a child in child care gets subsidies of $4,800 per year. If the child is in university, he can receive more than $8,500 in bursaries over the course of his studies, and get a subsidised government loan to pay off the remaining fees and cover study expenses. Children from lower-income families receive far more.
iii. Singaporeans with disabilities now receive substantially greater support. Both when young through early intervention under EIPIC, and as adults, where we provide a substantial incentive through the Special Employment Credit (SEC) for firms to employ them so that they can contribute and lead more independent lives.
iv. An older Singaporean in need of long term care can receive subsidies of $870 per month for home-based care or $1,200 per month if he is in a nursing home, following the changes we introduced last year. Those who need more help will get it through Medifund.
We will take further, significant steps in this Budget towards strengthening social mobility and increasing the progressivity and fairness of our system. In particular, with enhancements to Workfare, a low-wage worker who is 60 years old would receive a top-up of his pay of about 30%. This is in addition to what his employer can receive through the SEC, and the new Wage Credit Scheme, to be introduced in this year’s Budget, which will encourage his employer to up his pay.
While raising incomes is the best way to help lower- and middle- income Singaporeans cope with rising costs, this Budget will also include measures to help them more immediately. The most significant support will go to older Singaporeans, to help them with medical costs.
Taking all our measures together, including those which will be announced in this Budget, we are providing substantial benefits to lower- and middle-income Singaporeans. The full picture can be seen if we look at benefits over a lifetime, starting from a couple’s needs when they first have children, to the time they get old and need other types of help, especially with healthcare costs.
In total, over a lifetime, a young low-income couple with two children can expect to receive more than $600,000 in benefits in real terms (2013 dollars). (This comes from subsidies and other means-tested benefits for their children’s education, housing, healthcare, Workfare, the GST Voucher, and other schemes.)
This is much more than we used to provide in the past. In the last decade alone, we have more than doubled the lifetime benefits in real terms for such families.
When we take into account all the taxes that such low-income families will pay (mainly GST), they will get back far more in benefits. In fact, they will get more than five dollars in benefits for every dollar in taxes paid.
However, today’s generation of older Singaporeans will not benefit as much as younger Singaporeans from the enhancements in Workfare and CPF and other schemes. We want to do more for this senior generation of Singaporeans, who worked over the years, often with low pay, to build a better future for their children. They made today’s Singapore possible. We will do more for them. The Government is reviewing the system of healthcare financing and some other schemes to help them in their retirement years.
Finally, the Budget will make significant investments to nurture the sports and arts, which play a growing role in enriching life in Singapore. Over the next five years, we will invest 30% more in sports programmes, and more than double our investments to develop regional- and community-level sports facilities. The Government will also create a new Cultural Donation Matching Fund, to provide dollar-for-dollar matching for donations to the arts and culture.
In short, we are building a better Singapore: a more inclusive and caring society, with an innovative and dynamic economy, so that Singaporeans can have better opportunities and more fulfilling lives.
