SINGAPORE - Digitalisation, technology adoption and social support were among the issues discussed by participants in the latest Singapore Together Emerging Stronger Conversations session on Saturday .

She emphasised the need for close cooperation between the government and public, in building a more resilient Singapore in the new normal. She cited the SG Together Action Networks which bring together the Government, community and businesses to address various issues, such as mental health. The other action networks currently are the Uplifting Pupils in Life and Inspiring Families Taskforce that aims to strengthen support for students from disadvantaged families; the SG Cares Community Network bringing together 160 government and community help agencies to help the low-income and vulnerable; and the Beyond Covid-19 Taskforce formed in May this year by the National Council of Social Service to and strengthen the resilience of the social service sector.

Mr Koh, who has been working for a month after graduating from Nanyang Technological University in June with a degree in accountancy, said the dialogues have exposed him to people from other walks of life that he would otherwise not have had the chance to interact with, such as political office holders.
