Janil Puthucheary on local vernacular languages in wayfinding signs and public address systems
Government agencies make their own assessments on when to use the three mother tongue languages to effectively communicate and meet the needs of their stakeholders. In general, counter and service staff are available in the healthcare institutions to assist elderly Singaporeans who need help. As for MRT stations, key information signages and public address announcements on important matters, such as travel advisories, are made in the four official languages. Senior Minister of State for Communications and Information Janil Puthucheary said this in reply to an MP’s question in Parliament on Tuesday (Mar 21).
