The government has called on the private sector to stop using NRIC numbers to authenticate persons. All of us should also practise good habits to protect ourselves, for example by using strong passwords or security tokens, and staying vigilant against scams or unauthorised access of our personal information.

Celebrated Seletar-Serangoon Family Day with residents and their new MP Jasmin Lau! It was a great opportunity for residents to have fun, and to meet and get to know Jasmin. I am confident that she will continue serving her residents and community well going forward.

Saddened to hear that a 30-year-old NSman collapsed and passed away yesterday after booking out from Maju Camp, where he had earlier participated in NS Fitness Improvement Training. As we commemorate #SAFDay25 and the unwavering commitment of our servicemen and women in defending Singapore, we also want to protect their lives, and training safely remains a top priority.

Enjoyed meeting residents of Teck Ghee Grandeur, Teck Ghee Horizon, and Teck Ghee Parkview at a community gathering yesterday. We have adjusted the area assigned to each MP in Ang Mo Kio GRC to serve residents better. My GRC team of grassroot advisors and I will still be serving all Ang Mo Kio residents, so feel free to continue raising matters to me if you need to. go.gov.sg/4oyemx

Saddened by the passing of former Mufti Shaikh Syed Isa Semait. As Singapore’s longest-serving Mufti, he touched many lives and made quiet but important contributions to the racial and religious harmony that Singaporeans enjoy today. I wish his family comfort in this time of grief. https://go.gov.sg/6fgs66

Terkesan atas pemergian Shaikh Syed Isa Semait, Mufti kita yang paling lama berkhidmat. Beliau telah menyentuh banyak kehidupan dan memberikan sumbangan secara tenang dan sederhana tetapi penting kepada keharmonian kaum dan agama yang kita nikmati hari ini. Semoga keluarganya diberi kekuatan dalam waktu sukar ini. go.gov.sg/fpkn1s

Had an enjoyable lunch with a group of senior grassroots leaders (GRL) and Grassroots Mentors (GM) today. I am glad to see that the People’s Association continues to tap on GMs for their experience and advice, and to support younger GRLs as they serve their residents.

Thank you for stepping up and continuing to serve the community. https://go.gov.sg/tfefbi

Took in the early morning calm during a #jalanjalan at Mandai Boardwalk on Monday. This 3.3km boardwalk overlooks Upper Seletar Reservoir and offers the occasional encounter with wildlife amidst the surrounding nature. It is open from 7am to 7pm every day and entry is free. Do take time to visit! go.gov.sg/hua5n7

Caught up with Alex Yeo, Cassandra Lee, and David Hoe – three of our first-term Members of Parliament – over lunch. Stepping up to contest elections as a candidate is never an easy decision. I am delighted they decided to do so, and their residents have elected them. I look forward to joining them and our Parliamentary colleagues at the swearing-in when Parliament opens on 5 Sept. go.gov.sg/vgwqbu
