AODA Country Information—Singapore Updated by Natalie AODA Country Information—Singapore Updated by Natalie Goh, Country Representative for Singapore June 2012 (For more information, contact [email protected]) National dietetic association address, contact name for credentialing verification Singapore Nutrition and Dietetics Association (SNDA) http://www.snda.org.sg For Inquiries: [email protected] Mailing Address: Singapore Nutrition & Dietetics Association c/o Nutrition & Dietetics Department Khoo Teck Puat Hospital 90 Yishun Central Singapore 768828 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Training of national dietitians, professional role and regard There are currently no academic and professional courses for the training of dietitians in Singapore. All practicing dietitians were trained overseas, mainly in the United Kingdom, Australia, New Zealand, Canada, United States and Malaysia. However, there are food and nutrition-related degree and diploma programmes in Singapore. These programmes have created more opportunities for dietitians who wish to consider teaching in the academia. The Singapore Institute of Technology – Newcastle University UK offers a 2-year Honours degree programme in Bachelor of Science with Honours in Food & Human Nutrition (http://www.singaporetech.edu.sg/food-and-human-nutrition/bachelor-of-science-with-honours- in-food-human-nutrition-2). The Culinary Institute of America – Singapore offers a culinary-related degree program in Bachelor of Professional Studies (BPS) in Culinary Arts Management (http://www2.ciachef.edu/singapore/program.html). The Temasek Polytechnic offers a 3-year diploma course in Applied Food Science and Nutrition and in Nanyang Polytechnic, a diploma in Food Science and Nutrition (http://www- as.tp.edu.sg/asc_home/asc_courses/asc_ft_courses/asc_courses_afsn.htm, http://www.nyp.edu.sg/scl/courses/diploma-in-food-science-n-nutrition). A Polytechnic is similar to community colleges in the USA. Students wishing to become a Registered Dietitian could use this degree as a bridge for obtaining admission into a foreign university offering a dietetics and internship program, eg, for obtaining admission into Australian universities where students complete of their 4th year of education and dietetic internship. There are also health and wellness-related programmes, for example, the Specialist Diploma in Health Promotion by the Nanyang Polytechnic School of Health Sciences, Diploma in Sports & Exercise Science, Diploma in Health Management and Promotion by the Republic Polytechnic School of Sports, Health and Leisure and Diploma in Nutrition, Health & Wellness by the Singapore Polytechnic. Correspondence studies /long distance courses on nutrition & dietetics are popular, but most are for short duration and/or are not accredited.

The public system is managed by the Government, while the private system is provided by the private hospitals and general practitioners. The healthcare delivery system comprises primary health care provision at private medical practitioners' clinics and outpatient polyclinics, as well as secondary and tertiary specialist care in the private and public hospitals. The practitioners from some 2000 private medical clinics provide 80% of the primary healthcare services while the 18 government polyclinics provide the remaining 20%. For the more costly hospital care, it is the reverse situation with 80% of the hospital care being provided by the public sector and the remaining 20% by the private sector. The 9 public hospitals comprise 7 general hospitals (Singapore General Hospital, National University Hospital, Changi General Hospital, Tan Tock Seng Hospital, Alexandra Hospital, Ng Teng Fong General Hospital (under construction), Khoo Teck Puat Hospital), the KK Women's and Children's Hospital and a psychiatry hospital (Institute of Mental Health). The philosophy of healthcare here emphasizes the building of a healthy population by the promotion of healthy living and through preventive healthcare programmes. Singaporeans are encouraged to adopt a healthy lifestye and be actively responsible for their own health. Patients are also expected to co-pay part of their medical expenses and to pay more when they demand a higher level of service. However, the Government also ensures that good and affordable basic medical services are made available to all Singaporeans by providing heavily subsidized medical services at the public hospitals and government clinics. Information of hospital bill size is available for public access. To help Singaporeans to pay for their medical expenses, the Government has put in place a financing framework, which consists of Medisave, Medishield, Eldershield and Medifund. Healthcare and health-related services are under the purview of the following ministries: Ministry of Health (MOH) is responsible for providing preventive, curative and rehabilitative health services in Singapore. MOH formulates national health policies, co-ordinates the development and planning of the private and public health sectors, as well as regulates health standards. For more information about the healthcare system in Singapore, visit website www.moh.gov.sg Agri-Food & Veterinary Authority of Singapore (AVA) Its mission is to ensure a resilient supply of safe food, to safeguard the health of animals and plants and facilitate agri-trade for the well-being of Singapore. It is also the national authority on food safety for both primary and processed food. For more information, visit website www.ava.gov.sg. Ministry of the Environment and Water Resources (MEWR) Its mission is to deliver and sustain a clean and healthy environment and water resources for all in Singapore. The National Environment Agency (NEA), a statutory board formed under MEWR is responsible for environmental protection and public health services such as sewage, drainage and waste disposal systems, control of air and water pollution and of toxic chemicals and poisons, the control of outbreak of infectious diseases, vector or insect control and the safety of the food prepared and sold in Singapore. For more information, visit websites www.mewr.gov.sg and www.nea.gov.sg. Page 2 of 6 AODA Country Information—Singapore Updated by Natalie Goh, Country Representative for Singapore June 2012 (For more information, contact [email protected]) Ministry of Manpower (MOM) is responsible for the industrial and occupational health of the workers. Together with the Ministry of Community Development, Youth and Sport, they also promote work life effectiveness and work life harmony in the workplaces. For more information, visit website www.mom.gov.sg & www.mcys.gov.sg. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Employment opportunities profile Dietitians in Singapore work in hospitals, polyclinics, government and community agencies, food industry, food service establishments, educational institutions, and in private practice. Examples of employment opportunities for dietitians are the Health Promotion Board; Singapore Airport Terminal Services (SATS); Temasek Polytechnic; Singapore Polytechnic, Republic Polytechnic, Ngee Ann Polytechnic, the Singapore Institute of Technology, food & catering companies, public & private hospitals and government polyclinics in Singapore. Research opportunities are available through A*STAR and the National University of Singapore. Some job openings come as emails from the SNDA secretary to SNDA members, as employers sometimes send job recruitment advertisements to SNDA. Many dietitians and nutritionists in Singapore are SNDA members; so attending their meetings is a good way to start networking. A dietitian seeking employment in Singapore needs to be mindful of this country’s unique ethnic composition. Although English is commonplace, each ethnic group has its own language, religion, food customs and beliefs. The total population is about 5.18 millions, with a resident population of 3.78 millions in 2011. In 2011, the population is comprised of about 74.1% Chinese, 13.4% Malay, 9.2% Indian and 3.3% other ethnic group. Like many developed countries, Singapore faces key challenges such as low fertility rate and ageing population. In 2011, 9.3% of the population is above 65 years of age. Singapore’s modern healthcare system and progressive government influence provide expanding prospects for dietitians seeking employment there. With a proven track record of adopting good ideas from outside its borders and a forward thinking society, Singapore provides an appealing opportunity for dietitians to make a difference. The future likely holds more job opportunities for dietitians in Singapore. The Ministry of Health is concerned about future challenges including a shortage of dietitians and nutritionists, and has acted to improve the situation. Other concerns and challenges facing Singapore will also help generate job opportunities for dietitians in the future, such as: . The-increasing cost of providing healthcare as a result of advances in medical knowledge and technology, leading to increased specialization and sub-specialization. The rising expectations

  • Malacca Guide
    MALACCA GUIDE YOUR FREE MALACCA GUIDE FROM THE ASIA TRAVEL SPECIALISTS www.asiawebdirect.com Thanks to a rich colonial past, thriving Peranakan heritage and excellent Nyonya fare, Malacca is Malaysia’s historical pride. Also spelt Melaka, the state is one of the country’s tourism industry’s trump cards. First established in the fourteenth century, it quickly gained fame under the auspices of founder Parameswara, a Sumatran prince. Conquered by the Portuguese, Dutch and British, remnants of their rule can be seen throughout the well-preserved town centre, from Porta de Santiago (the remaining gate of the Portuguese-built A’Famosa fort) to the nearby Dutch-constructed Stadhuys. Malacca’s a small town so exploring it is fairly easy on foot as you’re never too far from tourist-worthy sights. WEATHER SIM CARDS AND DIALING PREFIXES Hot and humid throughout the year with occasional rainfall, Malacca is perfect for year-round travel. Temperatures range between 30°C - Malaysia’s three main cell phone service providers are Celcom, Digi and 35°C during the day and 27°C - 29°C at night, though after rainfall it Maxis. You can obtain prepaid SIM cards almost anywhere – especially could be cooler. Rainfall occurs mostly between October and March inside large-scale shopping malls. Digi and Maxis are the most popular while May to July remains the state’s drier months.

  • Nurturing Youth to Engineer the Future of Singapore
    Media Release Nurturing youth to engineer the future of Singapore Engineering@Polys 2014 aims to stimulate students’ interest in science, mathematics, design and technology through real-world Engineering applications SINGAPORE, 2 September 2014 – Using a wind turbine to power household devices. Supply chain management of a blogshop. Putting together an audio amplifier. These are some of the activities that secondary school students can look forward to in this year‟s edition of Engineering@Polys 2014. Singapore‟s five polytechnics - Nanyang Polytechnic (NYP), Ngee Ann Polytechnic (NP), Republic Polytechnic (RP), Singapore Polytechnic (SP) and Temasek Polytechnic (TP) - have put together a four- month long programme showcasing engineering as an attractive discipline with diverse career opportunities. Supported by the Ministry of Education, the joint-polytechnic programme, held from July to November this year, will help secondary school students associate what they have learnt in the classroom – in subjects such as Science, Mathematics, Design and Technology - with real-world engineering applications. Asia‟s robust economic growth has led to an increased demand in several sectors such as infrastructure, energy, refined products, chemical, building and construction. The developments underpin the increased demand for engineering professionals. In the built environment sector, for example, the Building and Construction Authority (BCA) expects construction activities to remain buoyant and sees strong prospects for engineering graduates joining the sector. “The built environment sector is experiencing transformative changes with the push for greater adoption of advanced and productive technologies. Coupled with the sustained sectoral growth beyond 2030, the sector offers many exciting opportunities and meaningful careers for engineers to contribute towards shaping the built environment for all to live, work and play in,” said Mr Neo Choon Keong, Group Director of the Manpower and Strategic Policy Group, BCA.

Temasek Foundation is committing a grant of about S$1 million towards the programme. The inaugural TF SCALE programme was officially launched today at Republic Polytechnic. It provides a platform for youth from various TVET institutions in Southeast Asia to engage in a holistic learning and cross-cultural sharing experience. This includes discussions on regional economic and community issues, and opportunities to apply practical skills, technology and research in developing social innovation projects. A total of 300 students – comprising 150 from Singapore and 150 from Cambodia, Indonesia, Philippines, Thailand and Vietnam – will participate in the inaugural run of TF SCALE. To start the programme, NYP, RP and SP will each host 50 students from around the region. During the four-week programme in Singapore, the TF SCALE scholars will be engaged in various TVET-related academic programmes and participate in a series of workshops where they will work in teams to apply technical skills and knowledge to develop social innovation projects with their Singaporean counterparts. Following this, the 150 TF SCALE scholars from Singapore (50 from each of the three polytechnics) will be attached to one of the regional TVET institutions for a period of two weeks.

    National Olympiad in Informatics Fact Sheet National Olympiad in Informatics (NOI) is part of the National Infocomm Competition 2010 (NIC) under the Secondary School and Junior College Circuits. Synopsis of Competition The National Olympiad in Informatics (NOI) is an annual competition organised by the School of Computing (SoC), National University of Singapore, since 1998. It is modelled after the International Olympiad in Informatics (IOI), the ultimate international competition in computing. (Informatics is the European term for computer science.) NOI emphasises creativity in problem solving on the one hand, and programming skill and expertise on the other. NOI consists of a four-and-a-half hour session in which each contestant is required to individually solve and program a solution to each of the five to seven programming tasks. The solutions are judged according to their correctness (i.e., whether they produce the correct answers) as well as their speed of execution (i.e., producing the answers within a time limit). The actual time spent on programming is not taken into account in the evaluation. Each contestant works on a PC and is given a choice of programming language (Pascal, C or C++) to use. Target Audience This challenge is open to the secondary schools and junior colleges. Each school may register at most 5 students. Scoring system The judging system is automated. Every task (problem) contains a number of test data sets. Each submitted program is run by the judging system, and its output, to be generated within a time limit, compared with the correct answer. Each task has a maximum score of 100.
