TOKYO -- Singapore's deputy prime minister said the country's next generation of leaders will have to enhance educational opportunities to meet the diverse aspirations of the city-state's people.
Heng Swee Keat, 57, who doubles as finance minister and is seen as the country's potential next leader, told the Nikkei Asian Review on Thursday that the government has to take such steps to win public support. A general election must be called by early 2021.
