Serious Many Pappys don't like OngYK..not Team player.

[True Believer]

Those who wonder why the cost of living is so high in S'pore should look
no further than these overpaid, overhyped and overrated parasites.

OYK visited Gallop.SG.

With Turf City closed, Gallop.SG secured a piece of land along Sembawang Road (leading to Sembawang Park), to relocate the horses, and create a one of its kind equestrian hub.
They intend to offer horse riding, short staycations, and also support for individuals with special needs at an enrichment centre.
Got a sneak peek, hosted by Mrs Shanker and her team. They hope to get everything up in the middle of the year.
It won’t be easy running this business. But thanks to Gallop.SG, the horses at Turf City now have a new home in Sembawang. There are many opportunities for us to work with them, to link them up with programmes at our schools and also Active Ageing Centres.
I wish them all the best, and look forward to another unique and inclusive feature at Sembawang!

Every year, I spend the first morning of Raya with our Muslim residents, visiting Masjid Assyafaah and Masjid Petempatan, the only Kampung mosque in Singapore. As the mosques were already packed with vehicles, I parked some distance away and walked to the mosques. The walk to Masjid Petempatan, through secondary forests, was pleasant. Residents would be leaving the mosque, having completed their morning prayers. That was when I see many friends and familiar faces. Many would stop their vehicles, wind down their windows, and exchange greetings and well wishes with me, before heading off to celebrate with the rest of their families. This is one of those heartwarming moments that makes Sembawang so special.
Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri! Maaf zahir dan batin!

OYK shared an important update.

Shared an important update on our fight against chronic diseases at the Singapore Heart Foundation’s (SHF) 55th Anniversary today.
From mid-2027, we will extend Nutri-Grade labelling to include sodium and saturated fats. This will apply to 23 sub-categories of prepacked products such as salt, sauces, seasonings, instant noodles, and cooking oils.
Products will be graded from ‘A’ to ‘D’, just like for sugar, but with each sub-category having its own set of threshold levels.
This recognises the diverse ways in which different products are used across cuisines and in varying quantities.
For example, soy sauce and fish sauce will have different grading thresholds — while fish sauce has a higher sodium content, it is typically used in smaller amounts. This approach will help consumers make healthier choices and encourage the industry to reformulate products to achieve better grades.
Ultimately, we are the most important factor in determining our own health. It starts with simple habits: stay physically active, sleep well, and watch our intake of the three S-es — sugar, sodium, and saturated fats.
Thank you to SHF for their important work in improving heart health, and I wish them a meaningful and enriching anniversary celebration.

OYK was reminded.

Someone reminded me that I have been a Minister for 10 years now. Plus my time as a civil servant, I have spent 30 years in public service. As I reflect on this #10yearsWithOYK journey, I revisit the policies which I was deeply involved in, and hope that they will have a positive impact on Singaporeans for the long term.
I start with Healthier SG - a public policy commitment to help every Singaporean lead healthier and more active lives.

OYK was a guest DJ.

I completed my guest DJ stint (an hour a week for a month) at Mediacorp LOVE 972 Quartet show (玉健煌崇加王牌）yesterday.
I think it arose partly because Biyu commented that I only appear in their studio only once a year.
During the past month, Mark Lee called me his intern, and indeed the four celebrity DJs have been most kind to me, showing me the ropes and teaching me how to read the news, the weather report and use the mic and headphones properly.
The greatest lesson comes from my realization of the true meaning of being a DJ. Listeners let the DJ into their kitchens, living rooms, cars and offer you a seat next to them on the bus or MRT. DJs in turn need to possess the skill to speak directly to listeners, or as Marcus Chin said ‘whisper into their ears’.
Dennis Chew wrote me a nice calligraphy for my farewell. It read 康哥，which is the name they gave me for my guest appearance.
Thank you to my DJ supervisors for this unforgettable experience. See you again soon!
