🎓 Mean Years of Schooling Singapore Was 11.7 in 2022
The mean years of schooling for adults aged 25 and above in Singapore rose from 10.5 years in 2013 to 11.7 years in 2022, reflecting effective educational reforms. Key initiatives like the "Learn for Life" framework and SkillsFuture promote lifelong learning and skills upgrading. Additionally, the transition to Full Subject-Based Banding enhances student flexibility, while holistic approaches address mental health and character development, ensuring well-rounded individuals for a competitive workforce.
⚛️ 3% Fall in Nuclear Capacity in France From 2019 to 2022
France's nuclear electrical power capacity rose from 37,478 MWe in 1985 to a peak of 63,260 MWe in 2005, stabilizing until a decline to 61,370 MWe by 2022. This reflects the government’s commitment to a balanced energy mix under the Energy Transition for Green Growth Act and the Multiannual Energy Plan, which aim for carbon neutrality by 2050. Investments in new reactors and innovative technologies support this transition while maintaining nuclear's critical role in low-carbon electricity generation.
⚕️ 2x Growth in Per Capita Spending on Health in Vietnam
Vietnam's health expenditure per capita rose from $79 in 2010 to $180 in 2019, reflecting a commitment to enhancing healthcare services and infrastructure. This increase supports the government's goal of achieving Universal Health Coverage (UHC) and aligns with Resolution 20-NQ/TW, which prioritizes health for all citizens. Key initiatives include the Law of Social Health Insurance and investments in upgrading hospitals, addressing disparities in access, and promoting preventive healthcare across the nation.
