National Solidarity Party Manifesto 2025–2030
Your Future, Our Priority
1. OUR VISION: A FUTURE-READY, FAIR, AND FEARLESS SINGAPORE
NSP envisions a Singapore that is not only globally competitive, but deeply compassionate, civically empowered, and resilient for generations to come.
We believe our politics must go beyond mere efficiency or rhetoric—it must empower the people, nurture new leadership, and hold power accountable to the highest democratic standards.
Where others offer managed change, we offer principled transformation.
Where others echo the past, we build for the future.
Your Future is Our Priority.
2. NSP'S ROLE IN PARLIAMENT: THE PEOPLE’S AUDIT
For the next five years, NSP commits to be Singapore’s independent conscience in Parliament—a fearless auditor of government policies, spending, and direction.
We will:
Conduct independent reviews of government policies to ensure public money is spent wisely, fairly, and with long-term impact.
Challenge top-down governance with ground-up proposals informed by lived realities.
Hold institutions accountable, especially where vulnerable communities are left behind.
Legislate for the next generation, not the next election.
3. YOUTH & FUTURE LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT
Our Youth is our future.
NSP will:
Establish a "NextGen Singapore" Youth Leadership Fellowship to empower young Singaporeans to shape policies, builds communities, and challenge the status quo constructively.
Introduce mandatory youth representation in national advisory councils.
Champion youth entrepreneurship and innovation funding, beyond tech startups, to include arts, green economy, social enterprise, and regional outreach.
Youth Assembly SG — A national participatory platform where youth can table and vote on policy ideas with parliamentary response.
4. ECONOMIC SECURITY & DIGNITY FOR ALL
Economy for the People — Not Just Profits
We reject a trickle-down model that leaves ordinary Singaporeans behind. Instead, we champion a People-Centred Economy that:
Implements a Homegrown SMEs First Policy to redirect government support away from GLC-dominated ecosystems towards high-potential, locally-owned SMEs to foster economic resilience.
Build regional business and industry network to support locally–owned SMEs to grow overseas with government support from ground up stages.
Launches “Neighbourhood Prosperity Zones” to localised job and enterprise hubs to decentralise economic growth and reduce commute and income inequality.
Reforms CPF Flexibility to introduce an Opt-in Retirement Access Plan allowing seniors greater autonomy in drawing down CPF for essential needs.
Review CPF payout structures to ensure adequacy in actual retirement needs, not actuarial optics.
Minimum Living Wage Framework, not just Progressive Wage Models for select sectors.

Green Transition Fund to support businesses and workers in pivoting towards green and regenerative industries, preparing Singapore for the post-carbon economy.
· Jobs Transition Security Fund for retraining, wage bridging, and guaranteed placements for displaced workers from sunset industries.
5. HEALTHCARE WITH HEART
NSP offers care that is accessible, accountable, and anticipates future needs.
NSP Healthcare Pillars:
Universal Primary Care to expand community clinics with capped $10 GP visits for citizens under the CareNear initiative.
Abolish redundancy across Medisave, MediShield, and Medifund—create a unified, transparent national health account system.
Establish Mental Health Resilience Hubs in every town to provide subsidised counselling, youth therapy, and eldercare mental wellness and integrate mental health education in schools and workplaces.
Medical Cost Shielding to introduce Income-Proportional Caps on out-of-pocket expenses across all public hospitals.
6. HOUSING & URBAN INCLUSION
NSP redefines public housing as a long-term social contract—not a speculative asset class.
NSP Housing Vision:
Introduce a “HomeFirst” Model. Citizens have access to their first home with lifetime affordability assurance. Peg BTO prices to construction cost + land acquisition cost, not market valuation.
Reform HDB Resale Logic. Enforce resale price stabilisers to prevent BTO-to-private profit-flipping cycles by introducing progressive property tax on multiple property holdings.
Multi-generational rental cooperatives. Establish cooperatives to tackle ageing and single-person household isolation.
Fair Rental Access. Expand affordable rental flats for lower-middle income citizens and young adults building independence.
Strengthen Lease Decay Security. Guarantee options for seniors in aging flats through Lease Conversion or Extension Schemes without forced relocation.
Audit HDB land cost pricing formulas and demand full transparency in land valuation mechanisms.
7. EDUCATION THAT EMPOWERS, NOT PRESSURE
Singapore must stop sorting children into narrow funnels of success. NSP will build a system that nurtures human potential beyond grades.
NSP will:
Abolish elitist streaming systems and shift to multi-dimensional learning models.
Equalise funding across schools, including neighbourhood and special education institutions.
Support for teachers’ well being through reduced administrative load, professional development and mental wellness initiatives.

Nationalize early childhood education. Ensures pre-school centres are equipped with the world’s best practices. This initiative also ensures every household is able to afford the costs of unpredictable and ever-rising cost of private childhood education.
8. CLIMATE, SUSTAINABILITY & NATIONAL RESILIENCE
We cannot build a future without saving our planet and building local resilience.
NSP will:
Create a National Climate Corps: mobilise youth for environmental and coastal protection projects.
Mandate transparent accounting of carbon offsets, emissions targets, and clean energy investments—ensure they’re real, not greenwashed.
Mandate solar energy integration in all new HDBs and town councils by 2030. Re-channel the savings from Green energy sources back to HDB’s lessees.
Expand urban farming, green roofs, and water conservation measures in every constituency.
Audit current recycling policies and develop a truly efficient body to ensure Singapore’s green initiatives are sustainable and scalable.
· Establish Nature Justice Zones to protect urban forests and waterways from development unless citizen review and consensus is achieved.
9. POLITICAL RENEWAL & CIVIC FREEDOM
We will reform the political system to be transparent, participatory and accountable — not just efficient.
Establish a Democracy Advancement Fund to support civic education, journalism, and youth participation.
Push for live parliamentary broadcasting.
Abolish the mayor system to reduce unnecessary expenses and avoid duplication of public services.
Demand independent appointments to key institutions like the PA, CPIB, and Presidential Council.
· Establish Freedom of Information Act. Enact laws for public data access to enhance transparency and accountability after 20 years. Guarantee citizens' right to access public data, government decisions, and spending.

Abolish the GRC System and return to Single Member Constituencies (SMCs) as the democratic default.
Anti-Corruption and Ethics Oversight Body and to ensure independent of the executive branch, with citizen board representation.
· Parliamentary Reform. Establish Proportional Representation in Parliament. Amend the Constitution to allow proportional representation for political parties who got 10% of the total vote share. Grant elected opposition MPs equal access to town councils and constituency resources..
We are not here just to win seats—we are here to reset how power is held and shared in Singapore.
10. FAMILY SUPPORT AND BIRTH RATES
Our future generations need more help than ever to ensure the survival of Singaporeans
