(Jan 23): Singapore’s finance minister said next month’s budget will focus on infrastructure spending, health care for an aging population, and helping businesses transition to a digital economy.

“We want to be able to continue to invest in education, the health care of our people, and in taking care of the growing number of seniors,” Heng Swee Keat said in an interview with Bloomberg Television’s Haslinda Amin on the sidelines of the World Economic Forum meetings in Davos.

“We are not done building Singapore,” he said. “We have many major infrastructure projects to make Singapore a green, livable city.”
