The regime is unlikely to adopt, let alone consider ex-Scholar Tan's suggestion.
Why?
Because the entire country is subservient to the Imperial Family interests.
Peasantpore is run along the lines of a typical imperial chinkish dynasty politic entity. A strong man e.g. Autocrat mobilize the state's resources to enrich his clan using rent seeking economy policies.
Scholar Tan says the move to service industry is inevitable given Peasantpore has limited land and natural resources despite advances in manufacturing capital. The regime knows that is not possible. Many years of kowtowing has dulled the brains of most peasants. The regime knows from anecdotal evidence that moslem generally become dumber thanks to knocking their heads 5 times daily. To make the jump to service industry will require 'thinking' peasants, not drones that we see mass produced from third rate universities and polytechnics.
The regime is forced to reply on simple rent economy, to continuously draw foreign direct investments and if necessary, import vast quantities of cheap labour to make foreign merchants happy.
Scholar Tan wants more domestic spending using by doubling the education allotment, improve public services, health, transport and pumping more money to fund risky start ups. The regime prefers the 'Rent Economy' model and routinely indulge in small scale wealth re-distribution using pork barrel politics e.g. 'asset enhancement'. It is using the same Asiatic tactics of using cheap labour and hard work to overwhelm regional economic competition. The regime will rather ensure the dollars for domestic spending serve political interests than channel the spending on first world public work engineering and education that do not translate to votes and encourage more dissent over economic mismanagement.
