While we rest at home this Labour Day, let’s take a moment to express our appreciation and gratitude to all the frontliners who are working hard to keep SG running. Here’s a big THANK YOU from the bottom of our hearts. ❤️
It’s May the 4th! Saving the earth is in your hands, so may the force be with you.

Like ice cream in this hot Singapore weather, the earth’s great ice caps are melting due to global warming! It’s time to ask ourselves if we have done enough for the earth. If not, start here: www.mewr.gov.sg/climateaction #ClimateActionSG
🦟 Can you imagine crunching mosquito data for a living? In this episode of “Have you met…”, Ms Janet Ong, Analyst at NEA’s Environmental Health Institute (EHI), shows how mosquito data is used to provide insight into dengue risk areas and give early warning of impending dengue outbreaks.

We may not have been able to dine-in at #OurHawkerCentres but we’ve still been enjoying our favourite hawker dishes at home. As we tuck into our carrot cake and nasi padang, let’s send some appreciation to the people behind the delicious dishes at https://bit.ly/2XpTmrC
Working from home has provided many of us the opportunity to look out our windows at times we would normally be getting dressed for work, or on our evening commute. Tag us in your Instagram stories and posts of beautiful SG skies so we can share it with others for a mid-week respite. :)

Changing how you see your food is the first step to wasting less. Leftover beef can be the perfect ingredient for a delicious tortilla and leftover cooked vegetables can be turned into a veggie-packed pasta sauce when blended with a can of tomatoes.

Dine-in at #OurHawkerCentres resumes from 19 Jun! Whilst you may be excited to meet with your friends, limit the group to 5 people or less and continue to observe #SafeDistancing measures – use unmarked seats/tables, keep 1 metre apart from others, and only remove your masks when eating.

At our markets, continue to stand within the boxes marked on the floor, to maintain a safe distance. Access to the 4 popular markets will continue to be restricted based on the last digit of your identification number. More information available at www.nea.gov.sg/media/news/advisories/index/safe-management-measures-in-phase-2-at-hawker-centres-and-markets

Don’t leave your used tissues or wet wipes behind when dining at #OurHawkerCentres! It is important to dispose of used tissues or wet wipes which can be highly contaminated, to #FightCOVID19, especially as we resume our activities gradually.

From 19 Jun when dining-in resumes, Safe Distancing Ambassadors at hawker centres and coffeeshops will be on hand to remind patrons to be socially responsible and observe personal hygiene. Let’s all do our part to keep ourselves and those around us safe. https://go.gov.sg/nea17jun20-hygieneathcs-toilets

During Phase 2, you may leave your home to smoke, but do so in an area where smoking is not prohibited, and observe #SafeDistancing requirements. To protect yourself and others around you, do put your mask back on as soon as you have finished smoking. From 19 Jun, Designated Smoking Areas along the Orchard Road No Smoking Zone can re-open with safe distancing measures. Smoking corners beyond the Orchard Road No Smoking Zone, can also re-open with the necessary safe distancing measures in place. www.nea.gov.sg/post-circuit-breaker-measures
