I agree that experience is important and there is a lack of experienced data science professionals in SG, and actually everywhere.

Another common cause of failure is that the organization/stakeholders lack the will and understanding to embrace data centric work processes. Most people do not like to rock the boat, so it requires a lot of pressure from the right people to make things happen.
so if there is a lack of experienced science professionals in SG, then in a way no local people to fill up the vacancies i see on job portals?

so (a) no one willing to take the risk to groom newbies, and (b) not many experienced professionals in local workforce. aren't we setting ourselves up for failure regardless of the gov identifying it as a key growth role?
