SINGAPORE - The world has changed completely, and Singaporeans have to work together to deal with uncertainty, said Senior Minister Lee Hsien Loong on April 6. «In Singapore, we have to work together as one people, closely with the Government, » SM Lee said, speaking at the Kebun Baru Sunday Carnival. «United, resolute, fighting on, and not confused by strange ideas or soft solutions - don't need to do this, we can postpone the problem, we leave it to later on. Somebody else can worry about it, our future, our problems.» In his speech, SM Lee cited the sweeping global tariffs imposed by US President Donald Trump on many countries, including Singapore. He said: «This is going to affect our trade, it's going to affect our economy, it's going to affect our region, and it's going to affect our future. And it's not good news.» SM Lee's remarks come after Prime Minister Lawrence Wong on April 4 said in a five-minute video uploaded to his social media that the Republic must brace itself for more shocks to come.

SINGAPORE – Nutri-Grade labels will be mandatory for sodium-heavy products such as salt, sauces, seasonings and instant noodles by the middle of 2027, if they are given C or D grades. This is in a bid to encourage Singaporeans to make healthier dietary choices amid high rates of chronic diseases. Like the labelling for beverages, such products will be graded A to D, with D being the least healthy choice. Products rated D, which would have the highest levels of sodium, sugar, and/or saturated fat, cannot be advertised.  The label will also be updated to highlight the ingredient of concern that results in a product’s final grade, to better help consumers understand the basis of the grade.  For example, if the sodium content for an instant noodle is graded C, but its saturated fat content is graded D, the product will have a D grade and the label will indicate the saturated fat content.
