Speech by Minister Grace Fu on Population White Paper at the Parliamentary Debate
Speech by Minister Grace Fu on Population White Paper at the Parliamentary Debate Sustaining a Strong Singaporean Core Introduction Madam Speaker, many members before me have spoken from the heart about the concerns expressed by Singaporeans. Do we need to have so many immigrants? Are we getting the right immigrants? Can they be integrated into our society? I would like to address these concerns. I will focus on the need to sustain a strong Singaporean core, and how we will work towards achieving this. Our Demographic Challenge Last month, I visited an Elder Care Centre and met a lady there. She described her family to me. She has 6 children. Of the 6, 4 are married and 2 have remained single. The four married children gave her 5 grandchildren. So from large families of 6 children just a generation ago, more are remaining single, and those that are getting married are having significantly fewer children. This is quite typical amongst families in Singapore and reflects our marriage and parenthood trends, and the demographic challenge of Singapore. The demographic challenge of Singapore in my mind is an outcome of our fertility issues of yesteryear, before we became an independent country. We had a baby boom and this is where we will see a silver tsunaimi hitting us. To illustrate why we need to address this demographic challenge, I would like to introduce you to the Ng family. Mr Ng is 43 and his wife Mrs Ng is 40. The 2 of them have 6 siblings in total. The couple have 2 daughters.

Speech by Mrs Josephine Teo, Chairman, Pap Women's Wing
SPEECH BY MRS JOSEPHINE TEO, CHAIRMAN, PAP WOMEN’S WING AT THE INTERNATIONAL WOMEN’S DAY CELEBRATION AT YWCA FORT CANNING LODGE ON 7 MARCH 2020 AT 2.30PM 1. Tomorrow is International Women’s Day (IWD). This occasion should have been special for two reasons. a. It is likely to be the last IWD before we hold the next GE. b. It is the start of a new decade and so a good time for the Women’s Wing (WW) to take stock, and to map out our vision for the future. 2. Therefore, right up to early February, we had been planning for a different kind of celebration. a. None of us could have expected the Covid-19 outbreak. b. However, in the true Singapore Spirit, the WW response is to be nimble and still come together to mark IWD in a meaningful way. Same same but different! c. At another suitable time, possibly at our annual WW Conference to be held in the later part of the year, we will revisit the important topic of our plans for the future. 3. For today, I’m sure you will agree with me, it is appropriate to begin by thanking all our frontline staff. a. We thank them in the same way as all Singaporeans. b. But as an organisation of women for women, we want in particular to recognise the women on our frontlines – nurses and doctors, Home Team emergency services and border control officers, hotel housekeepers and Page 1 of 8 hawker centre cleaners. Even our teachers and educarers have to exercise extra caution when taking care of our young ones.

Defending the Legitimacy of Elections Asking the Right Questions: The
Defending the Legitimacy of Elections MARUAH believes in a free and fair election as the right of all citizens. To that end we have done research, conducted forums and continue with our Education process. In this paper we explore the role of Parliamentarians. Asking the Right Questions: The Quest for Parliament’s Holy Grail There is a wonderful story about the power of the question. It comes from the ancient European legend of the Holy Grail. The quest for wisdom is unwittingly undertaken by Parsifal, a young knight who is green and has no idea about life. He stumbles upon the Grail Castle, entirely by chance quite early on in his quest. In the middle of the banquet, a parade takes place during which the Holy Grail and the Spear which pierced Christ’s side on the cross displayed. Parsifal being a complete idiot does not ask the wounded King who guards these treasures what they are. Instead, he stares at it open mouthed. The parade passes on in silence and Parsifal goes back to eating. When he awakes the castle has disappeared and he is in the middle of a wet field. He later discovers that he should have asked the King what these treasures were and the question, “What ails thee?”, for if he had, he would have found wisdom and his quest would have ended. The point of the story is that the solution to a problem is given when the right question is asked, but you have to ASK THE RIGHT QUESTION. In a representative democracy, the elected parliamentarian is to represent the interests of the PEOPLE who voted for him.
