> Singapore’s Parliament has discussed measures to help young people obtain stable first jobs. The Workers’ Party proposed expanding paid, structured apprenticeships and entry-level opportunities, saying the Economic Strategy Review gives the issue too little attention. The government responded that broadening work-based pathways is a key part of the review. It said these pathways will continue to be strengthened so young Singaporeans can build skills and gain experience.
