Singapore's consumer watchdog has urged fuel companies in Singapore to «exercise greater transparency and restraint» in pump price adjustments after they raised prices for five consecutive days last week. The comments were made by Consumer Association of Singapore (Case) president Melvin Yong at the association's 55th anniversary and partners' appreciation dinner on Sunday (March 15). In his speech, Yong noted that consumers today face new and evolving concerns, such as those faced by motorists given the sharp rise in petrol prices. «Within just a few days, several petrol operators raised pump prices multiple times. However, when international oil prices fell as reported in local news last week, local oil companies continued raising the price of 95-octane gasoline,» Yong said.He added that consumers are aware that global events and geopolitical tensions can affect oil markets: «When oil prices go up, pump prices move up quickly. But when global prices fall, consumers expect those savings to be reflected just as quickly.»

Following a series of recalls involving infant milk formulas in January this year over the presence of cereulide toxin, two additional formula milk products are being recalled over the same issue. The Singapore Food Agency (SFA) on Sunday (March 15) ordered the recall of Nestle's NAN HA2 and Nature One Dairy's Premium Toddler Milk Formula Stage 3. Cereulide is a toxin produced by some strains of the Bacillus cereus bacterium, which can cause symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, abdominal cramps and diarrhoea. Both SFA and the Communicable Diseases Agency said in a joint statement that the detection follows the expansion of testing of infant formula milk products to include those intended for children above one year old. SFA added that the recall for Nestle's NAN HA2 follows its ongoing market surveillance after it earlier completed testing of all infant formula products sold at major retail outlets in Singapore. The affected Nestle and Nature One Dairy products originated from Switzerland and Australia respectively.
