Singapore Hospice Council launches a campaign to raise awareness of end-of-life issues and to encourage end-of-life conversations hat do you say when a loved one is diagnosed with a terminal illness? W What are the important topics to talk about when considering end- of-life care? How do you approach the topic of end-of- life care with your loved ones? According to a survey conducted in 2014, 82% of respondents agree that the general public needs to know more about hospice and palliative care, and 71% agree that there should be national conversations about death and dying. But, almost half of the respondents have not started the conversations, for the simple reason that they do not know how to broach the topic. The two-day event attracted over 1,800 participants and featured informative and interactive booths with different patient care settings. Other programme highlights included: talks on palliative care in four languages, tips on starting early conversations on end-of-life care, performances by various performing groups. 4 5 THE HOSPICE LINK • SEPTEMBER–NOVEMBER 2018 THE HOSPICE LINK • SEPTEMBER–NOVEMBER EVENT REFLECTION On 9 and 10 June 2018, the Singapore Hospice Council (SHC), with active participation by our member organisations Talking about death? and community partners, organised a Community Engagement Event at Bedok Town Square to encourage early end-of-life conversations.

  • Excerpt of Speech by Deputy Prime Minister, Teo Chee Hean, at Committee of Supply 2018
    Excerpt of Speech by Deputy Prime Minister, Teo Chee Hean, at Committee of Supply 2018 Strengthening our Institutions and Helping Our People Succeed The PMO-Strategy Group is working closely with our agencies and other central agencies such as the Ministry of Finance and the Public Service Division to adopt a systems approach to planning and coordination. This includes areas such as scenario planning, budget, manpower, population, land, security, climate change and new opportunities in the Digital and Future Economy. We have formed the Smart Nation and Digital Government Group last May to accelerate our Smart Nation efforts. Dr Fatimah Lateef and Mr Lee Yi Shyan cited demographic challenges, which stem from our low total fertility rate. Agencies have worked together to strengthen our support for marriage and parenthood in the key areas of housing, pre-school, and support in the workplace and the community. Minister Josephine Teo will give an update of our population priorities and strategies to ensure that we are well-prepared for the future later on during this Committee of Supply for PMO. Climate change is also a whole-of-nation issue where all countries need to take action now to safeguard our collective future. Together with other countries, Singapore will do our part to reduce our emissions. To do so in a cost-effective manner, the carbon tax is a decisive move. Its merits were discussed extensively during the Budget debate. The transition period and support will also help our companies and consumers make the adjustments. Minister Masagos Zulkifli will provide more details in his speech on our implementation plans in the Committee of Supply for the Ministry of the Environment and Water Resources.
