OYK thanks all parents who have brought their children to be vaccinated................. against rubella. 
Today the World Health Organization (WHO) verified that Singapore has met all criteria for rubella elimination. This means that disease spread is low and well controlled. Indeed, we have had zero cases in the whole of 2021 and 2022 thus far.
This significant achievement was made possible by our robust national immunisation programme, established system of disease surveillance and swift public health response.
Vaccination is the most effective preventive measure against rubella and I want to thank all parents who have brought their children to be vaccinated, as well as our frontline healthcare and public health workers for their hard work.
Even so, the disease remains highly transmissible among unvaccinated individuals, and we may continue to have sporadic cases.
We have gotten this far due to everyone’s cooperation. Let us remain vigilant and get protected through vaccination.

OYK had a busy Saturday morning.
Had a busy Saturday morning - visited our new community garden at Block 102. It is part of our effort to convert most of our car park roof tops to community gardens.
We celebrated with our community gardeners the fruits of their labour, which included bitter gourd, long beans and a variety of vegetables.
It is heartening to see the efforts that has gone into nurturing this lovely patch of suspended earth.
Together with SportsSG staff, volunteers and residents, we opened the sports-in-precinct at Wellington Circle. There is now a community space for futsal, basketball, table tennis and weight training. The most memorable part of the event was the very vigorous game of wheelchair rugby!

OYK wishes CDAC Happy Birthday.
The children read a version of ‘The Three Little Pigs’, then made model houses out of straws, sticks and plasticine. Then came the ‘blow your house down’ test, where teachers aimed a handheld fan at the models, to see if they can remain standing. The one I saw unfortunately collapsed!
This is an example of a pilot play-based programme for preschool children launched this year. We know children learn best through play. So we will see more such classes in the “A little from all 一人一点心” by CDAC 华社自助理事会 centres next year, targeted at children from more vulnerable families.
Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong officiated the event, where he talked about the contribution of organisations like the CDAC, to enhance social mobility in our society.
CDAC has a small budget - about $30 million or so, mostly contributed by members of the public. So we need to practise ‘四两拨千斤’ (a concept in Tai Chi, that is to overcome a great obstacle using a small force), to optimise our resources to achieve maximum benefits.
We will do so by focussing our resources on education of the young from vulnerable families, and leveraging our partners and volunteers.
Happy 30th birthday CDAC!

OYK joined Yishun Health at the Caring Communities book launch. 
Have you heard of names like Mums with Mugs, Project Pencil SG, and Repair Kaki?
They are community projects that have helped over 10,000 participants over the years.
Today, I joined Yishun Health at the Caring Communities book launch, which featured many of these community projects.
The launch was held at a ‘Wellness Kampung’, which is a common space for residents to gather, cook, have meals or exercise together.
As our society gets older, such spaces are essential. Because social engagement and maintaining an active lifestyle help to keep our seniors healthy.
Caring Communities is available on https://www.ktph.com.sg/about-us/media/publications. Do take a read and support this vibrant community.

OYK introduces a White Paper. 
MOH has just released our White Paper on #HealthierSG. What does it mean for you?
Fully subsidised nationally recommended screenings and vaccinations for Singapore Citizens.
Full use of MediSave to manage chronic illness. No more cash co-payment.
A new CHAS subsidy tier for common chronic disease management drugs so that drug prices in private GPs and polyclinics will be similar.
More rewards for leading a healthy lifestyle under HPB’s Healthy 365 health points system.
Participating GPs and polyclinics will start to enrol residents aged 60 and above into the Healthier SG programme in the second half of 2023, followed by those in the 40-59 age group in the next two years.
Healthier SG is an important shift towards supporting Singaporeans to practise preventive care.
I welcome everyone to read the White Paper at www.healthiersg.gov.sg.
