Workers' Party MPs on Wednesday (Aug 5) put forward a range of proposals in Parliament aimed at addressing challenges facing Singaporean workers, young people and local businesses.A motion titled «an economy of the future that works for all» was moved by Aljunied GRC MP Kenneth Tiong, who said in his opening speech that Singapore needs an updated growth model.Speaking on the challenge of innovation and entrepreneurship, he submitted the creation of a «special» zone consisting of residential and commercial space, including local enterprise and R&D, around Nanyang Technological University (NTU).Tiong said the State land in this district should not be priced at market scarcity value. Instead, it «takes its return in the companies that grow there instead of in rent».Tiong argued that high land costs have become a barrier to research, entrepreneurship and innovation, particularly for younger Singaporeans.He described the proposal as an «experiment» that could create a district that is both «pro-worker and pro-business».

A motion on Singapore's economic future filed by the Workers' Party (WP) MP Kenneth Tiong was amended and subsequently passed by the People's Action Party (PAP) majority on Wednesday (Aug 5) following more than eight hours of debate.The original motion stated that the House, notwithstanding the suggestions in the Economic Strategy Review on the future Singapore economy, believes in a more equal and inclusive economy.The WP's motion also said the House believes in an economic engine driven by dynamic local companies, healthy domestic demand, and Singaporeans and Singaporean capital venturing abroad.Holland-Bukit Timah MP Edward Chia, who spoke fourth in the debate, proposed to amend the motion by replacing the word «notwithstanding» to «in line with».He also proposed changing the phrase «economic engine driven» to «economic powered», inserting «global enterprises» after «local companies», and adding the words «and external» after the phrase «healthy domestic».Tiong said the WP cannot accept the first amendment of changing «notwithstanding» to «in line with», which «turns the sentence around».
