总统哈莉玛称如有必要,考量动用前期国家储备应对疫情冲击

新加坡总统哈莉玛在昨日于脸书发文表示,在当前我国各行业和人民都面对武汉冠状病毒(COVID-19)疫情冲击下,政府需全力支持我国百姓和企业,如有必要,动用前期储备也在考量范围内。

早前,副总理兼财政部长王瑞杰曾表示,不排除政府将会动用储备金,推出第二个应对疫情冲击的配套。

对此总统哈莉玛表示,打从上月在国会宣布2020财案以来,疫情局势越发严峻,并且很快扩散到包括欧美等国家,也有医疗专家警告情况可能持续数月,对人们生活和经济带来严重后果,加之近期油价暴跌也使局势加剧。

她认为,本地许多企业特别是旅游领域相关的,也都因为供应链中断而受到打击,需求减少、现金流拮据。“恐惧和缺乏信心的氛围笼罩全球金融市场。”

她指出,如果公共卫生和人们福利面对威胁或受影响,政府必须采取必要措施。

“政府都有向我和总统顾问理事会汇报跟进局势进展。”

新加坡总统有权审批新加坡储备金的使用。若本届政府决定采纳总统的上述建议,或将是我国自2009年金融危机以来,再次动用国家储备金。
