🌏 In today’s volatile landscape, can Singapore afford to be passive?
At a recent dialogue organised by @NUSEconSoc (ECS), Minister for Home Affairs, Mr @KShanmugam_ joined some 300 tertiary and pre-tertiary students for a dialogue on Singapore’s place in a rapidly changing world.
One key message: Singapore’s openness to trade, talent and ideas is not just for economic progress, but essential to national security.
The wide-ranging discussions unpacked how global events can have a multiplier effect on Singapore, alongside Budget priorities, economic security, AI investments and an ageing population. #ShapeTheFuture

What does it take to build a resilient economy in an increasingly uncertain world?
At NUS Economics Case Competition 2026, participants put their economic intuition to the test as they tackled real urban challenges, worked through data-driven proposals, and defended their ideas before an esteemed panel of judges.
From rigorous discussions to confident final pitches, the competition showcased the intellectual curiosity and analytical strength of our undergraduate community. Congratulations to all participating teams for your hard work, and to our winning teams for their outstanding performance.
As Singapore continues to navigate global volatility, demographic shifts, and technological change, the next generation of economists is already stepping up, not just to analyse the future, but to shape it. @fassnus #NUSLife #NUSImpact #ShapeTheFuture
