This year, the Forum will hone in on how the notion of sustainability has evolved due to the pandemic, both at a more personal level affecting day-to-day life, and at a broader level impacting climate change and the environment. 2 Ms Grace Fu, Minister for Sustainability and the Environment, and Mr Alex Yam, Mayor of North West District, will be joining the youths in a discussion about key sustainability issues in post-COVID Singapore. Minister Fu says, “Since independence, Singapore has always pursued economic growth in tandem with social inclusion and environmental protection. With the evolving challenges from climate change, it is more important than ever that we put sustainability at the core of everything that we do. As Singapore charts our 1 way towards a green recovery from COVID-19, we will be looking to foster sustainable growth through green financing, sustainable infrastructure development, and accelerating our progress towards a circular economy. These efforts will strengthen our resilience in an increasingly resource and carbon- constrained world.

  • Singapore 2017 International Religious Freedom Report
    SINGAPORE 2017 INTERNATIONAL RELIGIOUS FREEDOM REPORT Executive Summary The constitution, laws, and policies provide for religious freedom, subject to restrictions relating to public order, public health, and morality. The government continued to ban Jehovah’s Witnesses and the Family Federation for World Peace and Unification (Unification Church). The government restricted speech or actions it perceived as detrimental to “religious harmony.” There is no legal provision for conscientious objection, including on religious grounds, and Jehovah’s Witnesses reported 12 conscientious objectors remained detained at year’s end. In April an Indian imam who uttered an Arabic prayer during which he asked for “help against Jews and Christians” was fined and deported for acts “prejudicial to the maintenance of religious harmony and likely to disturb public tranquility.” Three foreign Islamic preachers were banned from entering the country in October and November, and two foreign Christian speakers were banned from preaching in September because the government reportedly viewed their teaching as damaging to social harmony. The government changed a voluntary program into a mandatory requirement that all Muslim religious teachers and centers of learning register with the Islamic Religious Council of Singapore (MUIS). Parliament discussed the existing prohibition on wearing the hijab for certain civil servants, but the prohibition remained. In September former Parliamentary Speaker Halimah Yacob, who wears the hijab, became president. The post was reserved in this presidential cycle for eligible Malays, who are mostly Muslim. The government made multiple high-level affirmations of the importance of religious harmony, launched an initiative to foster understanding of different religious practices, and created a fund and documentary to explore religious differences and prejudices.

  • Bukit Timah Nature Reserve Reopens!
    Bukit Timah Nature Reserve Reopens! On 22 October 2016, the National Parks Board (NParks) reopened Bukit Timah Nature Reserve following the completion of two years of restoration works and sensitive enhancements to the site. The Reserve was closed from September 2014 to October 2016 to allow NParks to repair and enhance the slopes and trails for public safety, upgrade the Visitor Centre, restore the forest habitat, and conduct a two-year biodiversity survey for the area. Minister for National Development and Second Minister for Finance Mr Lawrence Wong, together with the Advisers of Holland-Bukit Timah GRC, planted two Endocomia canarioides trees at the site to mark the reopening of the Reserve. (Left to right): Garden City Fund Chairman Professor Leo Tan; MP for Holland-Bukit Timah GRC Mr Liang Eng Hwa; MP for Holland-Bukit Timah GRC and Minister for Foreign Affairs Dr Vivian Balakrishnan; Minister for National Development and Second Minister for Finance Mr Lawrence Wong; MP for Holland-Bukit Timah GRC and Senior Minister of State at Ministry of Culture, Community and Youth and Ministry of Trade and Industry Ms Sim Ann; and NParks Chairman Mrs Christina Ong water two Endocomia canarioides trees planted to mark the reopening of the Bukit Timah Nature Reserve. (Photo credit: NParks) Restoration Works for the Reserve Prior to its closure, Bukit Timah Nature Reserve received more than 400,000 visitors each year. Over the years, heavy usage of the Reserve resulted in soil compaction, erosion, and gully formation, causing poor forest regeneration and an unpleasant hiking experience for visitors. Sections of three slopes along the Main Road trail, which had weakened in recent years, were repaired to ensure slope stability and public safety.
