Is this asking too much?

It's dangerous to follow the world order too, if you dun know where it leads to.
Its a conundrum for the PAP. As such they chose the passive stance and allow situations to dictate their actions most of the time. But that form of pragmatic approach is as ironic as their party's logo.

Their mode of operation is follow the whale. Not sure if they doing anything more or not. I also not confident if they are capable of being a first mover.

As long as they are transparent, public knows where the funds are being transferred that's good enough. Those fats can be trimmed into uprising industries like AI or Infrastructure, sciences. I dun believe we lose out other countries based on local talent. Those dared to dream big, should be given the opportunity and resources to pursue their dreams. And I dun mean those skills future, ID 4.0 stuffs. Real funds allocated in research and development. And those talents funneled into DSTA. What have we get?

A lot of people can dream big, but not everyone can be trusted. That is the problem. And I think we have 5.9million people, how to have talented people. If we reach 10million population, maybe 1 in 10 million, can get 1 Elon, Einstein or Genghis Khan. Then we really huat.

As for the ministries, I think an overhaul is much better than cut. Some can cross discipline. Note whilst doing so the main tasks is still focus on their title. Others are simply synergistic:

This one I don't know, I can see how ministry of sci and tech, can work with mindef. But I don't know about others.

I don't have a degree. I think that is like the minimum to have for jobs nowadays. Maybe that's why I can't find one.
