This book addresses key questions about how Singapore is likely to
develop going forward, what are the key challenges facing the
state, and how is the government going to deal with these matters.

leaders have been in shaping Singapore, and goes on to consider
specific new challenges, including rapid population growth,

policy, social policy, and foreign policy, and explores the
changing nature of governance. It also examines the Singapore
government's effort to contain the COVID-19 outbreak. Overall, the
book provides a concise, comprehensive assessment of the current
state of Singapore and its likely future direction.
