A strong culture of education and learning was the first key point mentioned by DPM Teo. In my opinion, by pursuing education pathways that matches our interests and individual abilities, the education and learning journey is important to everyone of us as it can help us achieve success in our future. As stated in his speech, "A strong culture of education and continuous learning keeps our people fresh, young and relevant, no matter what their ages are", thus, everyone of different ages and generations can learn and also receive education, this is the way to keep their minds young and in the future, they are able to achieve success with such skills and knowledge. Picking up a new skill or learning a new language will only bring advantages to people.
In my opinion, having more casinos and intergrated resorts does not keep Singapore "forever young". Crime rates might rise up due to unhealthy gambling habits. As mentioned by DPM Teo, we want Singapore to be a vibrant global city, a city where people want to live, work and play, it also has to be an environmentally sustainable city. Therefore, if we want a comfortable, safe and sustainable urban life, we must not have so many casinos that can attract the people to be addicted to gambling.
On the other hand, hosting more world-class events will keep Singapore "forever young". These events includes the upcoming Youth Olympics Games and the recent Formula One race. These integrated events will make Singapore more well-known in the eyes of the other countries. More countries will get to know us even though we are a small island. The upcoming First Youth Olympics Games will be hosted and held in Singapore. This will create a lasting sports, culture and education legacy for Singapore and youths from around the world, as well as to enhance and elevate the sporting culture locally and regionally.
