Attended the meeting of the J.P. Morgan International Council in Singapore.
It was good to welcome Council members to Singapore, following our meeting in Argentina last year.
At a time of considerable change and uncertainty, these conversations help us better understand the opportunities and challenges ahead, and how countries can work together to navigate them. go.gov.sg/hr8vss
Joined residents and fellow grassroots advisers for this year’s Ang Mo Kio Tree Planting Day! 🌳 Tree Planting Day has a long history, closely tied to Singapore’s early vision of becoming a Garden City. Even as our urban needs evolve, trees and greenery remain important to a liveable and sustainable city. go.gov.sg/v09s65

This morning, Sec-Gen Lawrence Wong reminded us that PAP has served Singapore through decades of change.
Singaporeans have given the PAP a strong mandate to lead. We must honour that trust by looking ahead, anticipating challenges, and acting decisively to safeguard Singapore’s future and improve the lives of Singaporeans.
I am honoured to serve in this new term of the CEC, and look forward to serving the party and people, together. https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1J8VLEAmqe/
Joined Victor Lye and his team at their Buangkok-Fernvale South Meet-the-People session last night.
More residents are now sending in their requests by email, with fewer turning up at MPS in person. Whichever way they contact us, we will do our best to help.
It was good to meet some of the younger volunteers and hear about their aspirations. I wish them all the very best as they pursue their dreams. www.facebook.com/share/p/1CzcHA4wKT/

Met up with Yip Hon Weng and his team at their MPS in Yio Chu Kang SMC last night. Like the rest of Ang Mo Kio, we have a number of residents dealing with medical issues as they grow older. Often their children are helping to support them, physically and financially. It’s this spirit of care, whether within the family or in the community, that makes a difference. Please keep up the good work! https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1DagvBatRj/

The world around us is changing rapidly. There are also developments at home that we should pay attention to. I took the opportunity to update my Teck Ghee team over dinner last night, and also to thank them for their sterling service.
I rely on my team and our partners to look after our residents and the neighbourhood. Their dedication and spirit of service makes all the difference. We cannot resolve every issue but rain or shine, we will help our residents and support one another as we build Ang Mo Kio and Singapore, together. facebook.com/share/p/1BswnzrGPZ
One of the exhibits at the revamped Singapore History Gallery may look familiar to Ang Mo Kio residents – a 1970s HDB lift from Blk 712, Ang Mo Kio Ave 6, in Ang Mo Kio Town Centre.
The lift was saved from being dismantled, thanks to the efforts of lift enthusiasts. It is now preserved as part of our national collection at the gallery.
If you have time, do visit the National Museum of Singapore to explore the gallery and discover stories behind familiar objects and places in our history. go.gov.sg/lshg5
I also visited Community Care Kedai @ Yio Chu Kang, a ground-up initiative where residents in need can pick up groceries at no cost. With the generosity of well-wishers and the support of volunteers, Kedai provides assistance to those in need while bringing the community together and fostering our kampung spirit. go.gov.sg/v09s65

Sometimes, we learn the most when things do not work out as expected.
The five recipients of HTX’s Undaunted Student Award, including Aneesh and Shavonne, pursued their ideas despite setbacks and did not give up.
To everyone with ideas of your own, stay curious and patient. Failure can show you where to go next.
Congratulations and well done to all five students!

Glad to meet former UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon again. We exchanged views on regional and international developments, and the importance of countries cooperating to promote multilateralism amidst a challenging global environment.
As a small state, Singapore relies on collective action and a strong rules-based multilateral system to foster cooperation. We will continue to work with international partners to build a resilient and sustainable world for future generations. go.gov.sg/w6a9rf
Congratulations to our graduating students from PCF Sparkletots @ Teck Ghee! 🎓

Opened “The Secret Vault”, GIC’s first public exhibition.
Singapore’s reserves are our rainy-day fund – a nest egg for future generations. GIC helps safeguard and grow these reserves over the long term, but what this involves can sometimes feel rather abstract. Through six interactive chambers, visitors see how our reserves are invested.
The Secret Vault runs from 10 October to 1 November at New Bahru School Hall. Do drop by if you can! go.gov.sg/7bq05f
Happy Children’s Day! Children grow up faster than we realise. One day, they are taking their first steps, then before we know it, they are heading off to school, making friends and discovering what they enjoy.
Amidst the hurly-burly of everyday life, I hope parents and caregivers can find time to slow down and enjoy these moments with their children. To all our young ones, enjoy these years and make the most of them. Have a wonderful Children’s Day! go.gov.sg/cd26x
I was saddened to learn of the passing of Tun Dr Siti Hasmah earlier today.
I have known Tun Siti Hasmah for many years and always enjoyed meeting her. She was warm and gracious, full of life, and had a wonderful sense of humour. I fondly recall our chats about her love for music and the violin.
Ho Ching and I will remember Tun Siti Hasmah fondly. Our deepest condolences to Tun Mahathir and his family during this difficult time. May she rest in peace. go.gov.sg/1bbmtn

Spent Sunday morning with Ang Mo Kio-Hougang residents! Met residents at the last stretch of GO Connect 2026. They were enjoying the walk, exploring the neighbourhood and making new friends along the way. After the walk, we celebrated Ci Yuan Day. Since 2015, Ci Yuan CC has been a place where residents come together. I hope that as Ci Yuan continues to grow, we can keep strengthening neighbourly bonds and build not just a kinder Ang Mo Kio–Hougang, but also a more vibrant Singapore. go.gov.sg/cyd26
