Mulai November nanti, jururawat Muslim di sektor kesihatan awam akan dibenarkan untuk memakai tudung dengan pakaian seragam mereka, jika mereka mahu. Saya berharap ini akan diterima baik, dengan semangat yang betul oleh semua pihak.

Our values and beliefs as a society shift over time – each new generation has its own perspective on racial issues. Therefore, from time to time, we must adjust our policies on race & religion. But we should adjust based on our own needs, not just because of trends abroad – and we should do so with caution.

The govt intends to pass specific legislation on Racial Harmony. It will be called the Maintenance of Racial Harmony Act. It will collect together in one place all the Government’s powers to deal with racial issues, but will also incorporate some softer, gentler touches.

Singapore has become one of the few countries in the world where people of different races and faiths live peacefully together. It is a precious and rare achievement, but it is also a delicate balance.

Race relations have come under stress during COVID-19. There have been more racist incidents, which have specifically targeted Indians, both work pass holders & Singaporeans.
These racist incidents remind us how fragile our harmony is. Racial harmony took hard work, sacrifice & wisdom, after our founding fathers resolved to forge one nation from the different races.

We must not give the impression that Singapore is turning inwards, and becoming xenophobic and hostile to foreigners. It would be disastrous for us, and it is not who we aspire to be. Instead, we must make it clear to the world that Singapore is determined to stay open, to earn a living for ourselves.

To deal with workplace discrimination more broadly, some of the TAFEP (Tripartite Alliance for Fair & Progressive Employment Practices) guidelines will be enshrined in law, to give them more teeth and expand the range of actions that can be taken.

Singaporean workers have valid questions about work pass holders that must be addressed. Singaporeans must be assured that EP and S-pass holders are of the right standard. All employees must also be assured of fair treatment at the workplace.

The economic uncertainty caused by COVID-19 has intensified pressure on middle income Singaporeans. This can be seen in the growing restlessness over foreigners, particularly work pass holders.

Of particular concern are delivery workers who work with online platforms like Foodpanda, Grab & Deliveroo. They lack the job protection that most employees have. MOM is studying this and will be doing consultations. We must address the issues and give these workers more secure futures.
