  • First Singapore Together Emerging Stronger Conversations for the Malay/Muslim Community Conducted Under Ciptasama@M³
    Issued on 7 Jan 2021 [UPDATED] MEDIA FACT SHEET FIRST SINGAPORE TOGETHER EMERGING STRONGER CONVERSATIONS FOR THE MALAY/MUSLIM COMMUNITY CONDUCTED UNDER CIPTASAMA@M³ The Singapore Together Emerging Stronger Conversations (ESCs) conducts its first session for the Malay/Muslim (MM) community through CiptaSama@M³. The SGT ESC x CiptaSama@M³ serves as a platform for the community to reflect on their COVID-19 experiences and issues they faced. Two sessions will be conducted in January to seek out ideas and suggestions to co-create solutions for a more cohesive, resilient and caring Singapore society. 2 Since the Singapore Together Emerging Stronger Conversations (ESC) commenced in June 2020, over 2,850 Singaporeans and community partners have participated in more than 45 ESCs organised by the Government. These conversations have yielded fruitful insights on the challenges and opportunities facing Singapore in a post-COVID-19 world, and on how we can emerge stronger from this crisis. As we work towards recovering from this pandemic, this spirit of participation and co-solutioning will help Singaporeans to chart a new path and emerge stronger. (i) Singapore Together Emerging Stronger Conversations (ESCs) 3 We have undergone a shared experience which will shape the attitudes and worldview of an entire generation. Through the ESCs, we want to draw this out and use these reflections as core elements on which to build an even stronger society. 4 At least 20 ESCs will be held between June 2020 and February 2021. In the spirit of Singapore Together, these ESCs are inclusive and accessible to all, including Singaporeans who may be more comfortable in Mother Tongue.

Meetings of the Sikh Advisory Board (SAB or Board) The Board, which has been appointed to serve a three-year term from November 2017 to October 2020, met for its second year of quarterly meetings as scheduled in 2019 on 13 February, 22 May, 14 August and 6 November. 2. Major Items discussed or addressed by the Board 2.1. Proposed Amendments to the SAB Rules Proposed amendments regarding a more equitable representation of the structure of the community and sustainability and diversity of the Board were submitted to the Ministry of Culture, Community and Youth (MCCY) for consideration and final approval. The proposed amendments to increase the representation for the Central Sikh Gurdwara Board (CSGB) and the Gurdwara Sahib Yishun – from one to two members each - to ensure parity with other Gurdwaras, will remain. The MCCY asked the SAB to reword sections of the amendments with specific reference to diversity and gender. The MCCY advised the SAB to consider such amendments to be a part of any best practices guidelines rather than to be incorporated into the rules and regulations of the SAB as that will give the SAB more flexibility to review its diversity needs as and when needed. The revised document is now pending the Minister’s approval. If approved, the SAB will have 17 members on the Board when the new term begins in November 2020 instead of the current 15.

  • Speech by Ms Sim Ann, Senior Minister of State, Ministry of Communications and Information (Mci) at the Mci Committee of Supply Debate, 2 March 2021
    SPEECH BY MS SIM ANN, SENIOR MINISTER OF STATE, MINISTRY OF COMMUNICATIONS AND INFORMATION (MCI) AT THE MCI COMMITTEE OF SUPPLY DEBATE, 2 MARCH 2021 Introduction 1. The past year has been challenging, to say the least, and we have all come to value the importance of staying connected. Digitalisation has been critical in enabling us to do so, even as we adopt safe distancing measures. We are transforming digitally as a society, but we need to ensure that the transformation is inclusive. 2. I will elaborate on four key strategies to achieve this: (a) First, we know not all Singaporeans are progressing at the same pace in the digital journey. Regardless of your starting point, the Government and key stakeholders will support you with the necessary resources. (b) Second, we will forge strong partnerships with stakeholders. (c) Third, we will continue to improve our last-mile delivery infrastructure. (d) Fourth, we will strengthen our communication efforts, making trusted information accessible to all. Supporting fellow Singaporeans to go digital 3. Let me address how we will approach inclusive digitalisation, starting with small businesses, as asked by Ms Tin Pei Ling, Mr Sharael Taha and Mr Cheng Hsing Yao. 4. We stepped up efforts to help small companies, including mom-and-pop HDB shops, to adopt simple digital solutions through the Heartlands Go Digital initiative. MOS Low Yen Ling and I co-chair the Heartland Digitalisation and Revitalisation Committee, and she had earlier spoken on how the Committee is helping heartland enterprises keep pace with digitalisation, taking into account their unique context.
