    It is trendy to say "let's all switch to greener energy NOW", but many livelihoods will be affected if oil refineries are shut down completely in Singapore! Senior oil refinery engineers and technicians at the plants will become obsolete and few can successfully switch to green industries and maintain the same pay. The oil export industry also supports a vast ecosystem of SMEs including logistics and support services. Singapore govt must be pragmatic and pivot at its own pace, not give in to pressure from other nations like US, EU or even China.
