SINGAPORE: National Development Minister Khaw Boon Wan said given the financial climate, Singaporeans need to be prudent.
Giving an example of buying houses, he said Singaporeans should buy within their means.
Mr
Khaw made these points at the launch of the National Community
Emergency Response Team Volunteers, CERT-on-Patrol Week at Sembawang
GRC.
The programme will have volunteers spreading message of
being prepared during emergencies for a week starting 1 to 9 August,
every year.
The constituency has one of the highest rates of chute bin fires.
But
with efforts targeting the problem, the number of such incidents has
gone down to 74 this quarter, from the 80 last quarter.
