Coconuts TV | Singapore Budget 2023: What Do Seniors Say? | Coconuts TV @CoconutsTV | Uploaded 1 year ago | Updated 2 minutes ago
In this year's budget announcements, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Finance Lawrence Wong announced that all Singaporeans aged 21 and above will receive payouts of between S$700 and S$2,250, which will be distributed over five years.
He also noted that the government was committed to helping the people and that they “provided comprehensive support last year” and are doing so again this year.
But he also made Singaporeans feel like leeches by adding that he hopes “all Singaporeans understand that it is not fiscally sustainable to rely so heavily on Government support year after year to cope with inflation.”
With all the buzz around what's enough or not, we wanted to find out what the OG Singaporeans a.k.a the seniors think and they had PLENTY to say.
