What can Singapore's "Subsidy Scheme for the Poor" enlighten China?
Singapore's policy is to reduce the burden of rising prices by giving direct cash subsidies to the poor and the middle class, and to realize the source of funds by increasing the tax burden of high-income people. This kind of policy is a means to adjust the economic inequality, and its feasibility and actual effect depend on the national conditions of different countries, the details and specific effects of policy implementation.

Some countries have implemented similar policies, such as Canada's child welfare, which also provides cash subsidies to families to reduce the burden on low-income families. In addition, some countries will increase the tax burden of high-income people by implementing a progressive tax system.

However, this policy also has some problems and challenges. For example, the implementation of the policy needs a lot of financial funds, which has certain requirements for financial affordability; At the same time, the policy needs to ensure the efficiency and fairness of the use of funds and avoid abuse and waste; The implementation of the policy still needs to overcome some difficulties, such as policy propaganda, tax collection and fund allocation.

To sum up, whether this policy is worth emulating needs to be considered according to the specific conditions of different countries. If a country needs to implement similar policies and has corresponding conditions and resources, it can consider adopting similar policy measures.
