2025年1月7日，新加坡副總理兼貿工部部長顏金勇在國會書面答覆蒙巴登單選區議員林謀泉有關新柔地鐵對新加坡零售業的潛在影響相關問題。
以下內容為新加坡眼根據國會英文資料翻譯整理：
林謀泉（蒙巴登單集選區議員）先生詢問副總理兼貿工部長，政府是否已對2026年開通的新柔地鐵（RTS）對新加坡零售業的潛在影響進行了評估？
顏金勇（副總理兼貿工部長）先生：我今天的答覆也將涵蓋明天會議上將討論的朱倍慶（淡濱尼集選區議員）先生提出的問題。如果朱倍慶先生同意，我懇請議員考慮撤回他的問題。[請參閱《新柔地鐵對新加坡零售、製造、商業租賃和就業市場的影響》，2025年1月8日，第95卷，第149期，口頭答覆部分。]
新柔地鐵（RTS）項目將加強我們與新山的連通性，並擴大邊境兩側企業的整體市場。與此同時，我們也理解本地零售商的擔憂。無論是與新山的零售商，還是與線上零售商，競爭始終存在。通過新加坡企業發展局（Enterprise Singapore）的資助和援助計劃，我們將繼續幫助本地零售商提升能力，開發新產品和服務，以捕捉海外需求，包括通過線上零售。
政府也一直在幫助鄰里商店振興業務，並將繼續這樣做。新加坡企業發展局通過「鄰里視覺營銷計劃」和「鄰里企業社區營造計劃」等舉措提供支持。鄰里企業家還可以向新加坡鄰里企業中心尋求商業諮詢服務和升級支持。建屋發展局（HDB）也定期進行翻新工程，包括北部組屋區的鄰里中心（NCs），以改善購物環境，增強對新加坡消費者的吸引力。兀蘭的五個鄰里中心最近已完成升級，未來還會有更多升級工程。
政府還推出了社區發展理事會（CDC）購物券計劃，為新加坡家庭和鄰里企業提供支持。總體而言，自2021年12月推出CDC購物券計劃以來，參與計劃的鄰里企業和小販攤位已累計獲得9.07億新元的消費。第六批CDC購物券已於2025年1月3日發放，惠及133萬戶家庭、23,000家鄰里企業和小販攤位以及八家超市連鎖店。
以下是英文質詢內容：
Mr Lim Biow Chuan asked the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Trade and Industry whether the Government has conducted an assessment of the potential impact on retail businesses in Singapore with the commencement of the Singapore-Johor Bahru Rapid Transit System (RTS) Link in 2026.
Mr Gan Kim Yong: My response today also addresses the matters raised in the question by Mr Desmond Choo, which has been scheduled for tomorrow's Sitting. I would like to seek the Member's consideration to withdraw his question if he agrees. [Please refer to "Impact of Johor Bahru-Singapore Rapid Transit System Link on Singapore's Retail, Manufacturing and Commercial Rental Sectors and Job Market", Official Report, 8 January 2025, Vol 95, Issue 149, Oral Answers to Questions section.]
The Johor Bahru-Singapore Rapid Transit System Link Project will improve our connectivity with Johor and grow the overall market for businesses on both sides of the border. At the same time, we recognise local retailers' concerns. Competition will exist whether with retailers in Johor, or even online. Through Enterprise Singapore's grants and assistance schemes, we will continue to help our local retailers build new capabilities and offerings to capture overseas demand, including through online retail.
The Government has also been helping our heartland shops rejuvenate their businesses and we will continue to do so. Enterprise Singapore provides support through initiatives, such as our Heartland Visual Merchandising Programme and our Heartland Enterprise Placemaking Grant. Heartland entrepreneurs may also approach the Heartland Enterprise Centre Singapore for business advisory services and upgrading support. The Housing and Development Board (HDB) also undertakes regular upgrading works, including in HDB towns in the north, to improve the shopping environment of selected Neighbourhood Centres (NCs) to strengthen their appeal to Singaporean shoppers. Five NCs in Woodlands were recently upgraded, with more to come.

Overall, since the launch of the CDC Voucher scheme in December 2021, $907 million has been spent at participating heartland enterprises and hawker stalls. The sixth tranche of CDC vouchers was recently launched on 3 January 2025, which will benefit 1.33 million households, 23,000 heartland enterprises and hawker stalls and eight supermarket chains.
