He Tingru: Embracing Unity in Diversity – Strengthening Inclusivity and Trust in Singapore’s Future
Ms He Tingru, Workers’ Party Member of Parliament for Sengkang GRC, called for greater unity in diversity and support for invisible and blue-collar workers in Singapore during a recent parliamentary debate.
She proposed time-use surveys to quantify the work of unpaid labourers, highlighted the need for holistic support for caregivers, and urged addressing key issues such as heat inequality and workplace safety for blue-collar and migrant workers.
Additionally, Ms He emphasized the importance of comprehensive anti-discrimination legislation and argued for the enactment of a Freedom of Information Act, with exceptions for national security and defense matters.
