新加坡政府为了帮助新加坡企业和人民渡过2019冠病疫情而推出的追加援助配套。

DEFINITION

Noun

A supplementary budget introduced by the Singapore Government to tide Singaporean businesses and people through the COVID-19 pandemic.

由来
  • 英语“Resilience Budget”的意译。
  • 2020年3月26日，当时兼任财政部长的副总理王瑞杰宣布了这项总额新币四百八十亿元的援助配套。
  • 这个配套是新加坡独立以来数额最大的财政开支，甚至动用了新币一百七十亿元的国库储备金。
  • 此追加预算案帮助各行业人士、自雇人士、低薪员工、家庭及个人等应付当时不明朗的经济前景，细节如下：
    1. 保护国人的工作。例如，加强雇佣补贴计划、加薪补贴计划、自雇人士补贴计划、“新心相连”就业计划、短期援助基金等。
    2. 资助生活开销。政府为“关怀与援助配套”（Care and Support Package）投入了更多资金，给年满21岁的国人发放更高额的一次性现款，也给予未满21岁孩童的家长额外的现金入息。
    3. 保护本地企业。政府除了增加房地产回扣，延后了缴税期限，也让店主免付三个月的租金，提升融资计划。另外，政府也拨款加强了一些协助航空业、德士与私召车业者、旅游业等行业的计划。
    4. 政府不忘保障未来，在配套中推出了“群策群力，强化企业”（SG Together Enhancing Enterprise Resilience）计划，以及新币500元的技能培训补助填补。
ETYMOLOGY
  • The Mandarin term “坚韧团结预算案” is a paraphrase of the English term “Resilience Budget”.
  • Deputy Prime Minister and then Finance Minister Heng Swee Keat announced the S$48 billion Resilience Budget on 26 March 2020.
  • This was the largest budgeted expenditure since Singapore’s independence, to the extent that S$17 billion of the national reserves were mobilised.
  • This supplementary budget ensured that support was provided to people across all sectors, including the self-employed, low-wage employees, households, and individuals, to help them cope with the uncertain economic outlook. The specific assistance schemes were as follows:
    1. Protect Singaporeans’ livelihoods, such as enhancing the Jobs Support Scheme and Wage Credit Scheme, and launching the Self-Employed Persons Income Relief Scheme, SGUnited Jobs Initiative, and Temporary Relief Fund.
    2. Provide financial assistance for Singaporeans’ living expenses. The Government enhanced payouts in the existing Care and Support Package, with a higher one-off cash sum to Singaporeans aged 21 and above, as well as extra cash income for parents with children under the age of 21.
    3. Protect local businesses. Besides increasing real estate rebates and extending the deadline for tax payments, the Government also exempted shop-owners from paying rent for three months and enhanced financing plans. In addition, the Government allocated funds to provide additional assistance to industries such as the aviation industry, operators of taxis and private hire cars, and tourism.
    4. To secure Singaporeans’ future, the Government launched the SG Together Enhancing Enterprise Resilience (STEER) programme and a S$500 SkillsFuture Credit top-up.
