Tung Chee-hwa was 89. His office says he passed away peacefully yesterday (Tuesday, 8 Sep) surrounded by his family. No cause of death has been announced. Tributes have been pouring in for the former shipping tycoon, who became a defining political figure in Hong Kong’s early post-handover years. Chief Executive John Lee described Mr Tung’s contribution as “visionary” and “exceptionally significant”. China’s state news agency Xinhua called him an outstanding contributor to the “One Country, Two Systems” policy, as well as a renowned patriot and close friend of the Communist Party. Mr Tung led Hong Kong from 1997 until his resignation in 2005. He remained an influential elder statesman on the city's affairs, before largely withdrawing from public view in recent years.

It should be built around three layers of protection, he said. First, children should know who the trusted adults are whom they can approach when they feel unsafe. Second, adults who work with children should receive basic training to recognise possible signs of abuse, and respond and escalate concerns appropriately. Third, child-facing organisations should have appropriate policies, reporting and escalation procedures, and safeguards that reduce opportunities for harm. Prof Poon also addressed bullying and what he called “excessive performative pressure”. In reply, Senior Parliamentary Secretary for Education Syed Harun Alhabsyi said safeguarding children requires a whole-of-society effort. Children themselves are taught, from preschool level, about body safety and how to seek help when they feel hurt or unsafe. Educators, school counsellors and frontline health professionals are trained to spot and report possible abuse. Dr Syed Harun said the government will continue to review how to better support child-facing organisations to put in place appropriate safeguards.

MP Poh Li San said this in parliament on Wednesday (Sep 9), as she wrapped up the debate on the motion on securing Singapore’s food future. She warned that Singapore’s “thin narrative" of its food story "has not served us well”. Affluence and modern-day conveniences may lead Singaporeans to take food for granted and down the path of apathy, where food resilience and reducing food wastage are ignored as serious concerns. She urged Singaporeans to “eat our every piece of food with care”, support local farmers and appreciate the workers in the food supply chain. They should also keep their minds open and explore alternative food sources, as well as ensure that fellow Singaporeans always have access to affordable food. The motion was unanimously approved by the House.

Senior Parliamentary Secretary for Sustainability and the Environment Goh Hanyan gave this assurance in response to the debate on the motion on securing Singapore’s food future in parliament on Wednesday (Sep 9). But building a truly resilient food system ultimately requires everyone - businesses, communities and consumers - to play a role, she said. Her message - buy only what we need, support food redistribution efforts and choose local when we can. Addressing calls to ensure affordable food supply and reduce food waste, Ms Goh said the approach is to strengthen food affordability in a sustainable way. These include encouraging responsible consumption, redistributing edible surplus food and recovering value from unavoidable clean and homogenous food waste. One area being reviewed - date marking practices. The Singapore Food Agency is embarking on a study to assess the safety and feasibility of allowing food that has passed quality-based date marks to be donated while maintaining food safety standards so that more edible food can be redistributed.

It seeks to diversify imports, establish global partnerships, 'grow local' and stockpile. In parliament on Wednesday (Sep 9), Ms Fu said local farms that have tapped official support schemes have reaped real improvements, and more help is on the way. This is under a refreshed food strategy which aims to produce 20 per cent of Singapore’s fibre needs and 30 per cent of its protein needs by 2035. The Singapore Food Agency is supporting the Singapore Agro-Food Enterprises Federation to match local produce supply with demand, while developing new demand channels, including institutional buyers and caterers. On MPs’ suggestions to mandate firms to source from local farms, Ms Fu said this could inadvertently reduce access to more affordable sources of food and increase costs for businesses and consumers.*Audio issues inherent from source

He called on the government to help viable companies in this field bridge the gap from innovation to commercial scale. These food tech firms have to scale production, meet food safety and export certification requirements, win over consumers and secure sufficiently large orders. With Singapore’s small domestic market, the strategy will have to be export-oriented, Mr Ng added. He suggested broadening the scope of Market Readiness Assistance grants, so that support for the companies can go beyond market promotion to areas such as overseas certification and regulatory approvals.

Second, develop a diverse food waste management industry, possibly with special zones that have lower lease rates tied to food security and waste reduction outcomes. Third, promote a culture of community sharing, such as by setting up a nationwide framework for community fridges, which are currently not formally managed.

Speaking in parliament on Wednesday (Sep 9), he said one way is to bridge the demand gap by reforming the procurement framework and moving towards binding structural procurement of local produce. This means setting institutional procurement targets tied to the 2035 goals, with the government leading by example. The government should also provide an automated flat percentage rebate on all SG-certified produce purchased by institutional caterers, as well as build a B2B dynamic food procurement that allows institutional caterers to order flexibly from a pooled network of local farmers.

Food resilience is tested most directly at hawker stalls and on the dining table of households, she said in parliament on Wednesday (Sep 9). She noted that government support for hawkers is real but pointed out that there is no consistent mechanism which ensures that the support reliably translates into lower prices for residents. She urged the government to take immediate steps to build multi-tenant facilities for agri-food production and ensure that subsidies are in place to keep rent manageable as they grow. It should also start a national platform to aggregate the demand by hawkers and market food stallholders in bulk ordering.

But when it comes to resilience, important gaps remain, said NMP Kenneth Goh. In parliament on Wednesday (Sep 9), he raised three questions for consideration. Are Singapore’s alternative food sources genuinely diversified in the risks they face, or could the same shock affect several at once? When disruption occurs, how well can the food network absorb the shock and reconfigure around it? And what strategic positions and capabilities should Singapore enterprises build in global food networks before disruption occurs?

The leases could be tied to clear production targets and periodic reviews. MP Fadli Fawzi made this suggestion in parliament on Wednesday (Sep 9). He said while land optimisation is important, the current approach does not offer enough consideration for the fact that agriculture relies on long horizons. He also proposed strengthening Singapore’s position as a regional food transshipment and manufacturing hub. This would enable it to “enjoy the same resilience benefit” it got from being an oil refining hub during the fuel supply crisis caused by the Iran war earlier this year.

This means deepening its global food partnerships to not only secure food, but design pathways for the food to reach Singapore when it is needed. It also involves identifying and activating the strategic logistics capacity - storage, cold-chain transport and distribution - that will be required when disruption occurs. MP Valerie Lee said this in parliament on Wednesday (Sep 9). She also highlighted food rescue as being part of food resilience. Calling for a systematic approach, she asked the government to work with relevant agencies to identify suitable land or spaces that could be used for food rescue storage.

It is time we treated it as such”, MP Dennis Tan told parliament on Wednesday (Sep 9). He added that “if we want Singaporeans to support local food, we need to make it easier for them to do so”. He called for the creation of a nationwide marketplace, built and run by the local farming industry in the form of a cooperative or federation. It could coordinate dedicated local produce sections or stalls in wet markets, to “embed local food into the daily routine of ordinary Singaporeans”. Mr Tan also suggested requiring the largest supermarket chains and Singapore Armed Forces cookhouses to source a guaranteed minimum share of their fresh produce from local farms. He also called for greater tax relief for farmers, such as by exempting locally produced food carrying the SG Fresh Produce label from GST and reducing the corporate tax rate for agricultural enterprises licensed by the Singapore Food Agency.

Citing plots in southern Lim Chu Kang, she said their tenures will expire by next year, though work for their future defence use may only start from 2030. She asked for a clearer framework for interim farm use, instead of leaving land unused. Where farms have to exit, transition support should also recognise the costs of relocating productive systems and preserving some useful capability, she said. Ms Nadia also spoke about making farms more viable, helping farmers capture more value from their produce and improving their access to more markets beyond the fresh produce shelf. Regionally, she suggested exploring a small number of mutually beneficial agri-food pilots with Malaysia and Indonesia - for instance, in climate-resilient production or green lanes for efficient movement of time-sensitive food. She spoke in parliament on Wednesday (Sep 9).

This would ensure that Singaporeans have access to affordable food supply amidst geopolitical uncertainties and climate-related risks. MP Poh Li San moved this motion in parliament on Wednesday (Sep 9), saying that Singapore would be better off producing more food locally, wasting less and keeping food prices more affordable. She called for a more coordinated food import policy and food redistribution ecosystem. She also stressed the need to treat local food production capability as part of Singapore’s total defence security. She urged the government to increase its support to boost the local food production and self-sufficiency rate to at least 30 per cent. Turning to food waste, the government should create a more circular food ecosystem so that uncooked food is rescued, redistributed and consumed. Ms Poh also called for stronger support for food charity groups. One way is to have a nationwide community dining ecosystem, with small-scale pilots across various towns.

MP Choo Pei Ling shared this observation in parliament on Wednesday (Sep 9), saying the real test of the restructuring lies in what the Health Sciences Authority does with the structure it has been given, not in the structure itself. She wanted to know if the Ministry of Health could commit to a defined point at which the restructuring success will be assessed against indicators like cross domain and stakeholder experience to provide a sense that the changes have delivered the coherence they promised.

Speaking in parliament on Wednesday (Sep 9), he suggested that the separation of the inspection and complaint functions be set out in a published governance protocol, subjected to periodic independent review. He also urged the Ministry of Health to publish timeliness standards on the progress of complaint cases.

Implementation of an institutional redesign of this scale must be carried out in a manner that preserves continuity and clarity in terms of legal duties and obligations, professional independence and timely service, she said. Speaking in parliament on Wednesday (Sep 9), she stressed the need for the Health Sciences Authority to be provided with adequate resources for its expanded mandate. She wanted to know what steps have and will be taken to ensure a smooth transition of regulatory functions and minimise disruptions.

Welcoming this in parliament on Wednesday (Sep 9), NMP Sanjeev Kumar Tiwari, who is General Secretary of the Amalgamated Union of Public Employees, said he hopes the existing terms “will be treated as the floor and not the ceiling”. He said the officers are bringing valuable institutional knowledge and specialised expertise into an authority that will depend on their skills for years to come. The transition should be an opportunity to recognise this, invest in their development and give them clear pathways to learn, contribute and progress with HSA, he said.

But greater authority must be accompanied by equally clear accountability, coordination and capability, said MP Hamid Razak in parliament on Wednesday (Sep 9). He said the Ministry of Health and HSA must continue to speak with one voice, healthcare providers must know where to turn when policy and implementation appear to diverge, and HSA must have the necessary professional enforcement capability to exercise its expanding responsibilities effectively and fairly.

He asked that HSA publish indicators showing whether consolidation strengthens actions against importers, online sellers and distributors, and whether falling school incidences reflect genuine reductions. He also wanted to know if HSA will use its additional institutional capacity to provide trained mobile enforcement support to schools. Mr Yip spoke in parliament on Wednesday (Sep 9).
