Budget debate: DPM Heng cautions against too much emphasis on SkillsFuture take-up rates

Deputy Prime Minister Heng Swee Keat has cautioned against focusing on SkillsFuture take-up rates, after opposition MPs Jamus Lim and Gerald Giam cited that only three in 10 Singaporeans have used their credits so far. They questioned the scheme's capacity to help workers adapt to artificial intelligence and grow Singapore's economy. Mr Heng added that it's the attitude towards learning that people must inculcate.
