SINGAPORE - Deputy Prime Minister and Finance Minister Lawrence Wong will deliver Singapore’s Budget 2024 at 3.30pm on Feb 16 in Parliament.

This year’s Budget, titled Building Our Shared Future Together, will present the Government’s plans to help citizens meet their full potential, while keeping Singaporeans assured despite a more troubled world.

“It is a Budget to keep Singapore moving forward, equip our citizens to realise their fullest potential and give more assurance to our families and seniors amid a more troubled world,” said DPM Wong on Feb 15.

The Budget will be the first instalment of plans set out in the Forward Singapore road map.

Initiated by the fourth-generation leadership, the 180-page Forward SG report put out in October 2023 laid out the efforts Singapore will make in the coming years to stay cohesive amid a time of change.

These include providing a greater helping hand for the less well-off, mid-career workers and seniors, through means such as additional financial support and improved infrastructure.

The Straits Times will provide live coverage of the event.
