The Singapore Democratic Alliance (SDA) may have all their eggs in one basket by only contesting in Pasir Ris-Punggol GRC, but party chief media officer Harminder Pal Singh assured Singaporeans that their GST proposal sets them apart from others.
In an almost two-hour e-rally yesterday (July 4), Singh shared the party’s proposed post-Covid-19 recovery efforts, such as reducing GST to 3 per cent and implementing a progressive GST system.
Too busy to watch? We’ve got you covered. Here are three highlights from Singh’s online rally:
“High cost of living”
“We are going to address the burden of the high cost of living by pushing for the GST to go down to only 3 per cent, for food, household items and necessities,” Singh said.
“This move will especially help the lower- and middle-class Singaporeans, like you and I.”
The party also proposed a progressive GST system for luxury items, up to 15 per cent. This is the biggest difference in SDA’s manifesto and post-Covid-19 plans from every other party, he said.
