What businesses can do in Singapore Made For Families 2025 plan

Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong made the speech during Chinese New Year.

On Chinese New Year, Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong underscored the government plans and initiatives for Singapore Made for Families 2025, which will uplift families through all phases of life.

Companies can do its part by promoting flexible work schemes and cultivating an uplifting workplace environment, Lee said.

Community partners may also pool resources to enhance the lives of families. 

Lee also vowed that the government will alleviate pressure on parents and children’s educational journey.

“We lowered fees at government supported pre-schools from this January. Further changes will be announced in the coming months,” Lee said.

Lee also reminded the public to never forget the sacrifices of those fighting against the COVID-19 and to be vigilant. 

To do this, he said precautionary measures must still be taken such as self-tests and keeping vaccinations up-to-date.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
