We stopped by Dr Chee Soon Juan 徐顺全 new café Orange & Teal to ask him questions on mental health & community. To Dr Chee: glad to see you again, your heart for people has and will continue to inspire me.
Full coast to coast video:
To donate & campaign details: https://give.asia/samh-rebound-mentalhealthprogress
Last week, as part of my birthday fundraising for Singapore Association for Mental Health, I walked the coast to coast trail (36km) to give away $$$ and conduct interviews around mental health. SAMH is over 50 years old and provides effective and affordable psychosocial services and therapy. I choose them as the beneficiary because 1) their vision resonates closely with ours , and 2) I’ve known people who’ve benefited from their services and also interacted with dedicated professionals from SAMH. Hence, I take heart that the money donated will be put to good use.
Especially with the recent tragedy, we simply cannot afford to ignore mental health awareness and progress anymore. Mental health is not just reserved to a select few; it is shared responsibility. And I hope this video inspires you to see that

What kind of payment system is this? PayNow is unable to notify the seller that a payment has been made on a certain transaction and the seller is forced to ask the buyer to send screenshot as confirmation of successful payment???

Is there any other payment system that can notify the seller of a successful payment by email or by checking the transaction list at the payment system website?

Chee Soon Juan appeals to Singaporeans to support F&B establishments, including Orange & Teal​

Singapore — Politician turned restauranteur Chee Soon Juan is learning the difficulties of running a Food and Beverage establishment, made more intense in such a trying time such as the Covid-19 pandemic.

With Singapore returning to Phase 2 (Heightened Alert) starting from Thursday (Jul 22), the F & B industry is taking yet another blow, given that dining-in options will not be allowed until Aug 18.

The personnel of the eateries that remain open for takeaway and delivery options must continue with regular testing for Covid-19.

Dr Chee, the secretary-general of the Singapore Democratic Party, opened his restaurant Orange & Teal with his wife Mei late last month, calling it a lifelong dream.

And while launching the restaurant has not been without its challenges, it’s obvious from a Facebook post Dr Chee put up on Jul 22 that he is feeling the pinch more than ever.

He wrote that some establishments may not survive.

“For now, many outlets won’t be able to take the withering measures. And it’s not just owners. Employees, who also have bills to pay and mouths to feed, will be laid-off.”

As for Orange & Teal, while restaurant operations have been suspended, they will be offering food for takeaway from 11 am to 8 pm. Moreover, no one at Orange & Teal is losing their job.

“We will not let any of our staff go,” wrote the SDP chief.

He then appealed to the public to continue to support not only his restaurant but other local Food and Beverage establishments as well.

“So we’re counting on you to help keep things going until we can open again in Aug. O&T was set up to have people dine in and experience the ambience. It’s a blow now that you can’t dine in.

But that’s ok, we’ll adapt and continue to grow even in the most challenging circumstances. Like the SDP, pah see buay zhao (even if dead, won’t run away).”

True to form, Dr Chee also took aim at how the government has handled the relaxing and tightening of pandemic restrictions, writing that “the decision-making process by these young ministers are lamentable. But that’s a discussion for a future occasion.”​

He asked Singaporeans to do their “part to keep F&B joints across the island to stay afloat” by ordering or buying takeaway.

“If we rally together in such trying times, we can help minimise pain for workers at F&B joints, especially the mom-and-pop stalls at hawker centres. Give them your support,” he added.​

The longtime opposition leader seemed to bank on the affection many in Singapore have for him when he wrote, “See you at Rochester Mall and look for the two colours that’ll warm not just your stomachs but, hopefully, your hearts too.”

CSJ thanks Ning.

A kind Singaporean, Ning, called Orange & Teal and paid $150 for meals, asking us to distribute them to the cleaning staff. That was her way of paying-it-forward. She explained that this would help F&B outlets at this time while also providing a nice lunch for our low-wage workers. Thanks, Ning, it's people like you that keeps us going and makes our struggle worthwhile.

And the generosity continues as Singaporeans pay forward lunches, requesting that they be distributed to the elderly and low-income workers. Whoever said warm restaurant food is only for the rich? Thanks to Rajan, Michael and others for their thoughtful acts (you know who you are).

 

[jw5]

Well done to generous Singaporeans.

 

[jw5]

Foreign workers benefit from the generosity of kind Singaporeans.

 

[jw5]

More generous Singaporeans.

Thursday is beef brisket day at Orange Teal.

Orange & Teal was established so that folks could come and take in the ambience and enjoy the place. The current no-dining-in restriction has removed the essence of the cafe. But no worries, we're gearing up for your coming back when we re-open. In the meantime, it's Thursday and so it's Brisket Day! Come on down and get your beef fix.

CSJ wishes everyone Happy National Day and introduces his Duck Confit.

Happy National Day, everyone!
Tomorrow we re-open and we can’t wait to have you back. The whole idea behind Orange & Teal was to have people enjoy the ambience. So when they said no to dining-in, it took away the essence of the place, didn’t it?
But the important thing is that we’re back – and with oomph!. We’re introducing new menu items, starting with our Cannellini Duck Confit (pronounced: kon’fee, it’s a French cooking method where food is slow-cooked in its own juices) served with wine-infused broth. We had a tasting session and all I can say is that it tugs at your heart, not just your palate. We’ll bring in two other dishes later in the week, watch for it.
But soothing as it is, Orange & Teal is not just about food. It's about people. I've always wanted a place where we invite artists to exhibit their work, writers and poets to do readings, musicians to perform - wouldn't it be lovely if a string quartet serenaded us on a Sunday afternoon over cake and coffee?
There's so much we can, and will, do at the cafe. Actually, it's more than just a cafe, it's a good ol' friend.
Again, Happy National Day, my fellow S'poreans.
