Minister Fu says, “Since independence, Singapore has always pursued economic growth in tandem with social inclusion and environmental protection. With the evolving challenges from climate change, it is more important than ever that we put sustainability at the core of everything that we do. As Singapore charts our 1 way towards a green recovery from COVID-19, we will be looking to foster sustainable growth through green financing, sustainable infrastructure development, and accelerating our progress towards a circular economy.
