Singapore Perspectives 2026 "Fraternity": Panel 2

Panel 2 — Navigating Challenges to Social Cohesion The Institute of Policy Studies (IPS) will hold its annual flagship Singapore Perspectives (SP) conference on 20 and 26 January 2026. The theme for SP2026 will be “Fraternity”. As a compact urban city, Singapore’s social fabric has long been woven from dense everyday interactions in homes, schools, workplaces and shared public spaces. These social connections form the basis of the trust, norms and networks that bind our society together. In recent years, however, significant changes and disruptions — such as rapid digitalisation, demographic changes, social stratification and an unsettled global environment, among others — have heightened the complexity of our society and transformed how we connect with one another. Against this backdrop, this year’s conference asks: How do we renew the ties that bind? How do we bridge diverse interests and backgrounds, to strengthen our shared belief and distinctive identity as Singaporeans? There will be two online panels held on 20 January 2026, followed by an in-person conference at Sands Expo and Convention Centre on 26 January 2026. The conference will close with a dialogue session with Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Trade and Industry Mr Gan Kim Yong. 1:54 min Moderator Associate Professor Razwana Begum Head, Global Security and Strategy Programme School of Humanities and Behavioural Sciences Singapore University of Social Sciences 6:15 min Speaker Mr Jeffrey Siow Acting Minister for Transport & Senior Minister of State for Finance Note: During his speech, Ag Min Jeffrey Siow referred to the Foochow Association’s 125th anniversary.
