Committee of Supply 2026 debate, Day 4: Ng Shi Xuan on heat resilience
Heat resilience is not just an environmental issue, it is a public health, productivity and infrastructure issue. Despite important efforts made, rising temperatures cuts across ministries, sectors and systems. MP Ng Shi Xuan said this in parliament on Tuesday (Mar 3). He called for a move to a more coordinated framework and suggested three areas for a coordinated approach, including scaling passive cooling as a baseline strategy and strengthening digital heat monitoring.
