The Straits Times

Singapore's new ComLink+ scheme offers financial incentives and support to low-income families living in highly subsidized HDB rental flats. Families can receive up to $30,000 in total payouts by meeting employment criteria and making voluntary CPF contributions. The scheme, part of the Forward Singapore report, aims to reduce income inequality and boost social mobility. It includes support for pre-school education, employment, home ownership, and debt clearance. The program will be trialed for three years.
