He only has himself and his myopic PAP to blame for putting Singapore in this quandary.
Chan Chun Sing was praising MTI ( which he then headed ) for having diversified Singapore’s food resources and making them secure at the height of the Covid pandemic. Today his words appear so silly! All your most reliant sources are not going to make a difference when countries like Malaysia ban the export of chicken and India ban the export of sugar and wheat. We can expect more countries to limit the export of essential food items in the months to come. In this new World Order, where the world is becoming extremely polarised, no country can depend wholly on others to provide its food.
This food crisis is a wake-up call to Nations all the world- THE ERA OF GLOBILISATION IS OVER! Countries like Indonesia, Malaysia and India have shown that ultimately governments will impose controls to protect the interests of their own citizens. It is the likes of the Chan Chun Sing / Lawrence Wong / Ong Ye Kung /Tan See Leng who sing from the hymn sheet of globalisation and talk effusively about how Singapore cannot do without foreigners who have been blindsided by a reset of the World Order.
This Lim Tean is a class A clown who lacks even basic knowledge of what diversification means - it's not some magic panacea that can solve every food problem for you despite the whole world's food supply undergoing severe stress.
It simply means that even if fresh chicken is reduced, you can still get frozen chicken, you can still get other alternative sources of protein. The goal of diversification is to minimize the chances of a catastrophe happening due to inadequate food supply, it does not mean your favorite food die die the government must ensure its availability for you.
I can understand such ignorant and childish comments from an uneducated elderly, but certainly not from a highly educated lawyer cum opposition party leader.

To average sinkie peasant, if things get too expensive, we buy from value shop..
Some might say it's toxic, but if Sinkie govt allowed that to be sold in public, how toxic can it be, unless you totally dun trust sinkie govt.. If that the case, what protection do we have that we buy the same from supermarket won't be toxic?
If even average sinkie peasants know to buy from value shop, why is sinkie govt not u-turning on the ban on Russia? After all, average sinkie peasants just want to buy things from the cheapest source.
1. I have served the nation in a combat unit for 2.5 + 10 years. I had fulfilled my duty as a citizen, but has the country do it's part for me?
2. I don't know where the threat of CCP is, but I know the threat of CECA is already at my doorsteps
3. I had been called a CCP, JHK, Pinoy, but they never called me a CECA..

countries restrict export of foods, etc, eventually may be manpower.
so must have new strategies to preempt.
hope our millions dollars ministers/mp etc can handle.
They already preempt by paying themselves high salaries. Got money can run road.

5 years ago no recession
they already open floodgates
to fatten themselves
2 years ago with pandemic
they made it "Express Endemic"
while they drive own cars and social distance 5 metres at home
Now, they increase GST
to make the situation worse for poor and average people
Base on the past events,
PAP sure run road before we can even board the plane!
Why do we need 5 Mayors and 80 PAP Ministers?

I think PAP have contingency plans for poultry and other meat shortage in place. Lab grown substitute meats are in place to go into large scale production if necessary. So dun be fooled by Ah Butt's fear mongering......

Lab meat needs STEM cells to grow and re-produce
After using the Father of STEM for 100 times,
you think that the descendants of your fake meat will still be as safe??

Even veg ban also no problem for Singapore. PAP got hydroponic vertical gardening in place to mass produce veg if necessary. Dun be fooled by Ah Butt's fear mongering.....

I feel is In future We , Singaporean, Singapore HAVE TO PAY DOUBLE FOR FOODS IMPORT partly you put yourself in other Govt shoes, IF foods not enough in their country, Obviously they will stop export , Surely SG will be despo for it , Ok you pay Double for it than I will export " some " to you .
No doubt currently Govt pushing Local Farming , production but it don't or enough to serve the entire population
and this fellow aka EX HDB Chief still can claim 10million population squeeze this little country call SG
