Budget 2026: PM Wong to announce more support measures for workers

Mădălin Mihai

Prime Minister Lawrence Wong said the upcoming Budget will address concerns around jobs amid rapid technological change and a very uncertain external environment. That's even as Singapore enjoyed a strong economic performance in 2025 and a robust labour market. Meanwhile, analysts are expecting more targeted support for seniors and young families in Mr Wong's Budget statement, as concerns on job security and income stability continue. Nadirah Zaidi reports.
