The opportunity offered by the public service to shape Singapore's future remains in demand, said Minister-in-charge of the Public Service Chan Chun Sing.
He said in a podcast interview with The Straits Times on June 28 that while technological changes may have upended jobs in the private sector, the Government is committed to retraining and redeploying its 152,000 officers to keep them relevant.
"I must say that I am more fortunate than many of my counterparts overseas, because today, the Singapore Public Service is still the pride of our nation and people want to join us," Mr Chan said.
But as the world gets increasingly shaped by contestations, and with more Singaporeans holding diverse views and aspirations, local public servants must hone new skills.
