SINGAPORE, Sept 13 — In an era of shifting geopolitical alliances and economic rivalries, Singapore will need to have the same sense of unity and purpose as seen during the Covid-19 pandemic in order to move ahead, President Halimah Yacob said.
“We will need that same sense of unity and purpose, in an era of shifting geopolitical alliances, economic rivalries, huge climate change challenges and a rapidly ageing population, in order for us to move ahead.”During her presidency, she said that the country had suffered the “most severe and unprecedented crisis” with the onslaught of Covid-19.
Mdm Halimah then spoke about the other key function of the President — approving certain key public appointments. On uniting and rallying Singaporeans, Mdm Halimah said that she had focused on creating a more caring, compassionate and just society. “In an increasingly polarised world, where race and religion have become serious dividing forces, it is important that Singapore remains a country where people of all races and faiths can live peacefully, have equal access to opportunities and build a shared future together,” she said.
