These green bonds will count towards the total borrowing limit of $90 billion specified under the proposed law.Meanwhile, public agencies will also issue green bonds for non-Singa projects.Amendments will also be made to the Financial Procedure Act to provide for capitalisation of the portion of infrastructure financed through borrowings under Singa.This capitalisation will allow the Government to convert upfront development expenditure into a stream of annual depreciation and spread development costs across the generations who will benefit.Annual depreciation, together with annual interest costs, will be met from the annual budget. Said MOF: \"We will still have to have an overall balanced budget over each term of government.\"","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"comments":[{"id":3967366,"gmtCreate":1617673485926,"gmtModify":1680783012813,"authorId":3573450191379774,"author":{"id":3573450191379774,"idStr":"3573450191379774","authorId":3573450191379774,"name":"J5385","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","vip":1,"crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"individualDisplayBadges":[]},"repliedAuthorId":0,"objectId":343301208,"type":1,"supId":0,"prevId":0,"content":"liked","text":"liked","html":"liked"}],"langContent":"EN"}],"hasMoreComments":true,"newsSizeData":{"likeSize":30,"commentSize":10,"repostSize":0,"favoriteSize":0,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false}}
