This means that on average, every person living in Singapore contributes $1,003 towards the country's military expenses.
Singapore's military spending is relatively high compared to other countries. In 2019, it ranked 10th in the world for military spending as a percentage of GDP, with 3.2% of its GDP allocated to the military.
Singapore is a small island nation with limited land and resources, making it vulnerable to external threats. As a result, the government prioritizes military spending to ensure the country's security and defense.
The majority of Singapore's military budget is used for maintaining and upgrading its defense capabilities, including the acquisition of advanced weaponry and equipment. It also goes towards training and salaries for military personnel.
Singapore's high military spending may result in higher taxes for its citizens. However, it also provides job opportunities and boosts the economy through defense contracts and investments in the local defense industry. Additionally, the strong military presence in Singapore helps to maintain stability and safety for its citizens.
