  1. Why use “woke” to initiate such an important topic discussion. I think it’s a good initiative but a bad and thoughtless name.

  2. Aiyoh, just read through this post and got to say, solid analysis! The way you broke down the five storm clouds over Singapore really hits home, especially the part about the rising cost of living and the impact on our job market. It’s like every week, I feel the pinch in my wallet, and I wonder how we are going to afford the basics if this keeps up. The point about our housing market feeling crunched is so true too; it’s a struggle for many of us in the millennial and Gen Z crowd trying to start our own families.

    So here’s a thought: with all these challenges piling up, do you guys think we have to start rethinking our career choices? Like, should we be more focused on skills that can adapt to a changing economy, rather than just following the traditional paths? I’m curious what everyone thinks about the idea of pivoting careers or even taking risks in entrepreneurship given the uncertainties. Would love to hear your thoughts!
