they already made cdc vouchers a permanent feature...the low SES is already in place, at the same importing more FT, so eventually will only be high and low SES.
low SES cannot be eradicated, this is a feature of capitalism.
If not who clean toilets, work in F&B etc?

What is absolute low SES?
In Singapore, absolute low SES refers to individuals or families living in absolute poverty, meaning they are unable to meet a minimum standard of living, as defined by a specific research threshold. This is different from relative poverty, where basic needs are met but there is a deprivation of opportunities compared to the average person. While there is no official government cut-off, absolute low SES is often associated with living in public rental housing and can include other indicators like lower education levels, and having insufficient financial resources to handle external or internal shocks.

Key indicators and characteristics of absolute low SES in Singapore:
  • Absolute poverty:
    Research indicates that around 3% of Singaporeans fall into absolute poverty, unable to meet a minimum standard of living.

  • Public rental housing:
    A significant portion of those in absolute low SES live in public rental flats, which are for those with no other housing options.

  • Limited resources:
    This status is characterized by a lack of access to essential resources such as income, education, stable housing, and healthcare.

  • Vulnerability:
    People in this situation are often susceptible to shocks and may have a diminished capacity to improve their circumstances on their own.

  • Lack of government assistance:
    Some families may be ineligible for government assistance and unable to receive the support they need, exacerbating their difficulties.

Create a utopia with no low SES
All mid or high SES
Not really
Cos you can see the young well on their way to being like that in future

This is a failure in Singapore education system
They should have focus or emphasised on that but didn't

When eradicate all the low-ses class, the lower-mid ses class will become the new low-ses class.

So its impossible. Humans see the need to define class and target the lowest in the grp.
