Why raised GST to 9%?
"Temasek's chief executive Ho Ching proclaimed that investment returns by Temasek, GIC and the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) are the “single largest contributor” to Singapore's budget."
If they can do it then, why can't they do it now?

Temasek and GIC invested in different types of assets class as compared to Norwegian SWF.
That's why Norwegians SWF ROI US$222.2 billions in 2024 while both Singapore SWFs crying foul..
ROI near zero - not acceptable
