Welcome

Hi, I’m Louise. 

I'm an economic development specialist who has spent the past decade developing industries and attracting investments to create good jobs for Singaporeans. Currently, I help Singapore to chart strategy, make decisions and think about trade offs for the economy. Beyond my career, I am interested in a range of issues. Some are directly relevant to my work in economic development, others are related to causes I care about. Here are some that keeps me up at night: What does America and China's next act mean for the rest of us? How will AI change the way we live and connect with each other? How can the Government cede more space to civil society in Singapore? How can societies grow old better? How can Singapore continue being a land of hope and opportunities? How can we uplift differently-abled and marginalised communities through employment? I set up this personal page as an outlet for my ideas and projects. It is also an invitation to connect with like-minded individuals.
