Local production of vegetables and seafood falls in 2024
The proportion of locally produced food that is consumed by Singaporeans has fallen, except for eggs. While local farms boosted their yields slightly, there is still work ahead for Singapore to produce 30 per cent of its nutritional needs locally by 2030. Professor William Chen, Director of the Singapore Agri-Food Innovation Lab and Director of the Food Science and Technology Programme at NTU, discusses the latest food statistics. He talks about Singapore's "30 by 30" goals, what the statistics indicate about the progress towards it and if there is a need to reassess the target.

Australian FB page linking Bill Gates' SG trip with vaccine mandate fact-checked; MOH debunks claims
SINGAPORE: Following an Australian Facebook account's connection last month between the recent visit to Singapore of billionaire businessman Bill Gates and a reported vaccine mandate, the Ministry of Health (MOH) issued a clarification to debunk this. 'There are social media posts claiming that Singapore has enacted laws to mandate vaccines and jail unvaccinated individuals following Mr Bill Gates' recent visit to Singapore. This is false. Singapore has not passed any laws on vaccinations after Mr Gates' recent visit to Singapore,' wrote MOH in a statement on Jun 3. Moreover, AFP has also fact-checked the post put up by the page, Catholic Perspective, on May 12, as containing falsehoods. The page had shared a link to an article from a site called The People's Voice, the headline of which reads 'Singapore Passes Law to Mandate Vaccines and Jail the Unvaccinated—Days After Bill Gates' High-Level Visit.' On Jun 4, AFP characterised the site as dubious and noted that it had fact-checked The People's Voice several times in the past when it amplified misinformation concerning the COVID-19 pandemic. Last year, when an article on the site claimed that the World Health Organization (WHO) and Mr Gates were forcing people to get vaccinated, AFP issued another fact-check, which can be found here . The article from The People's Voice carried a photo of Mr Gates shaking hands with Singapore Prime Minister (PM) Lawrence Wong, as well as another of PM Wong with Tedros Ghebreyesus, the secretary-general of the WHO. The founder of Microsoft visited Singapore in early May and spoke at the Philanthropy Asia Summit, where he announced that the Gates Foundation is opening an office in Singapore, its first in Southeast Asia, with support from the Singapore Economic Development Board (EDB). In 2000, together with his then-wife, he created the foundation, one of the largest charities around the globe. It focuses on development and has spent billions of dollars on public health endeavours across the globe. 'Asian innovation is part of the reason why I am so excited about the progress we can make in health. Some of the lower-cost vaccines are produced in India and Indonesia, but beyond cost, it is more about the cutting-edge work that can be found in the region,' he said in his speech. PM Wong wrote in a Facebook post that he and Mr Gates 'had a wide-ranging conversation on the challenges ahead, from clean energy to vaccine development. Singapore looks forward to working closely with the Gates Foundation to advance innovation and improve lives — here in Asia and around the world.' /TISG Read related: 'Concerned Citizen' from 'Healing the Divide' wants Bill Gates to be investigated under FICA
