SINGAPORE: If scouts come knocking on your door in search of work, do your bit for charity and find something for them to do.

Get them to clean your flat, dust your office or feed the pets, and make a donation that will go to charity.

It's part of Job Week, which was officially launched at the Istana by President S.R. Nathan, who's also the Chief Scout of Singapore.

During Job Week, some 10,000 Scouts will fan out across the island, knock on the doors of offices and houses to find work.

The target is to raise about $600,000 - similar to the amount collected last year. - CNA
