  8. SINGAPORE: Nine local kueh manufacturers had their operations suspended due to the improper use of food additives, the Singapore Food Agency (SFA) said on Wednesday (Jul 27). Production of various kueh products by these manufacturers was suspended on Tuesday until further notice after high levels of benzoic acid or sorbic acid were detected in their kueh and components such as dough, the agency said. "Under the Singapore Food Regulations, the use of benzoic acid/sorbic acid is not allowed in kueh products, except for its filling, which should not exceed the maximum permissible limits." The affected manufacturers are: AMK Nonya Kueh Pte Ltd, Chit Guan Foodstuff Pte Ltd, Delight Baker Pte Ltd, Lim Food Industries, Sin Hwa Coconuts Industrial Pte Ltd, Thomson Foodstuff Manufacturing, Tiong Bahru Tian Bo Shui Kueh Pte Ltd, Toh Chuan Kee Foodstuff Pte Ltd and Tongli Food Manufacturing. Affected products include kueh lapis, yam cake, kueh salat, ang ku kueh, huat kueh, ondeh-ondeh, chwee kueh and soon kueh. (Table: Singapore Food Agency) SFA said it had been closely monitoring local kueh manufactuers since the detection of benzoic acid in locally manufactured kueh products in March. “In the interest of public health, SFA is taking enforcement actions against the implicated manufacturers and had suspended the production, distribution and sale of the implicated kueh products which were found to be (in) non-compliance with the Singapore Food Regulations.” SFA has directed the manufacturers to recall the implicated kueh products as a precautionary measure, and the recall is ongoing. The agency said that the “consumption of the affected products once or twice is not of food safety concern” based on the levels of the additives detected. However, it warned against the consumption of food with high levels of benzoic acid or sorbic acid over a long period of time. “This is because even though benzoic acid and sorbic acids are common additives which are safe when used in small quantities, studies in animals fed with high doses of benzoic acid had shown disorder of the central nervous system as well as changes in their brains,” SFA said. “Animals fed with high doses of sorbic acid had shown effects like reduced growth." SFA advised those who have consumed the implicated products to seek medical advice if they have concerns about their health, adding that consumers can contact their points of purchase for enquiries. “Food safety is a joint responsibility. While SFA puts in place and enforces the regulatory measures, food manufacturers should ensure that their products adhere to all the requirements in Singapore's food related laws,” SFA said. “SFA will take enforcement action against food operators who do not adhere to these laws and would not hesitate to prosecute offenders in court.”

  9. A tree that fell at Block 190 Boon Lay Drive on Tuesday (July 26) was certified healthy by an arborist in April, said the West Coast Town Council. Sharing photos of the fallen tree, Stomper Ivan said: "Fortunately, no one was around when it fell. Otherwise, it could have been fatal." He pointed out that it was near a playground and several benches. In response to a Stomp query, the West Coast Town Council said: "The town council was first alerted to the incident at around 1.30am. Contractors were quickly activated to cordon off the area and the tree was removed at 5.35am. There is no injury reported and no damage caused to the common property. "The last health check to the tree was conducted on April 2022 and it was certified healthy by our arborist. The cause of the incident was due to recent wet weather and strong wind last night. Our horticulture team had also checked on the surrounding trees to ensure that they are healthy and not affected. "We apologise for the inconvenience caused to residents and public during this period."

  10. actually clark quay has plenty of history, just that redevelopment has wiped them out. do u know that b4 the rise of containerized shipping in the 1960s, boat quay and clark quay handled a substantial amount of timber/rubber/rice trade?????? most of these trades in the area was dominated either by teochew or hokkien with teochew dominant in timber and rice while hokkien were mostly in rubber.

  15. Her two-year-old son had diarrhoea 12 times in 24 hours. Stomper Abie was so worried about her child that she took him to KK Women's and Children's Hospital on July 14. The diagnosis was viral gastroenteritis with dehydration. Viral gastroenteritis is an intestinal infection caused by several different viruses. The most common way of developing the infection – also referred to as a stomach flu – is through contact with an infected person’s fluids or by consuming contaminated food or water. The Stomper said: "My son got food poisoning after consuming food from Jeewa Catering Services who was the caterer for Jamiyah Childcare Centre." She said that after coming home from the Ang Mo Kio childcare centre, her son went to sleep, but at 3am, he started having diarrhoea. He was hospitalised for three days. After being discharged on July 16, the boy was re-admitted again three days later for acute gastroenteritis. He has since been discharged. Abie told Stomp: "This has caused me to be under pressure." She said she has withdrawn her son from the childcare centre "due to significant negligence in welfare, including very poor hygiene practices" and reported the incident to the Singapore Food Agency (SFA). Asked if other children in the childcare centre also had food poisoning, the Stomper said: "I am not sure about this, but it is happening to my child." In response to a Stomp query, SFA and the Early Childhood Development Agency (ECDA) said: "SFA and ECDA are investigating one reported case of suspected food poisoning incident. "Food safety is a joint responsibility. While SFA puts in place and enforces the regulatory measures, food operators must play their part by adhering to good food hygiene and preparation practices. SFA conducts regular inspections of food establishments to ensure compliance with hygiene standards, and will not hesitate to take enforcement action if food safety and hygiene violations are detected. "Members of the public who come across any potentially errant food operator should report to SFA via the online feedback form (www.sfa.gov.sg/feedback)."

  16. SINGAPORE — After drinking five pints of beer at an East Coast bar, a drunk Adam William Fletcher came to blows with a friend he was with, and then later punched a stranger for no reason. But his rampage did not end there, a court heard. When he was taken to Tan Tock Seng Hospital (TTSH) that evening, Fletcher struggled violently and was verbally abusive towards medical personnel. He ended up kicking a nurse on her upper chest. Appearing in a district court on Wednesday (July 27), the Briton, 40, was sentenced to seven weeks’ jail after pleading guilty to two counts of voluntarily causing hurt. District Judge Chay Yuen Fatt noted that Fletcher's first assault was unprovoked, and that his intoxication was an aggravating factor for sentencing purposes. The court heard that Fletcher and another foreign national went drinking at a bar at 19 East Coast Road on the evening of June 25 last year. The pair then went to a back alley behind the bar to talk, but they began physically tussling and pushing each other. Fletcher’s friend lost his footing and fell to the ground. A passer-by intervened and broke up the dispute. Fletcher then walked away from the alley around 10.30pm and headed towards Ean Kiam Place, off East Coast Road. He noticed a 57-year-old foreigner walking along East Coast Road to withdraw cash from an automated teller machine (ATM) near him. As the other man approached, Fletcher swung his arm and punched him once on the head, causing him to fall to the ground. He regained consciousness a few minutes later with the help of other passers-by. Fletcher then left the scene. The assault was captured on video by another passer-by. Police officers soon arrived and found Fletcher behaving in a drunken and disorderly manner somewhere else along Mountbatten Road. The victim was taken to TTSH in an ambulance. He had suffered bleeding on his scalp and elbow, along with tenderness over the base of his back, court documents said. VICTIM FELT DISORIENTED, CONFUSED Deputy Public Prosecutor (DPP) Tan Zhi Hao said that the victim was discharged against medical advice and did not immediately seek further treatment because his head injury left him “feeling disoriented and confused”. He returned two days later for follow-up treatment and was diagnosed with a concussion. He was also given three days of medical leave. As a result of the attack, he was found to have developed a severe anxiety disorder and post-traumatic stress. He attended five counselling sessions and incurred a total of S$3,804 in medical expenses. Fletcher compensated him with this sum in February this year. When the victim sought further treatment a month after the incident, an X-ray revealed that his elbow was fractured and there was painful swelling around the elbow joint. RAMPAGE CONTINUED IN HOSPITAL Fletcher was also taken to TTSH on the evening of the attack to treat the abrasions on his knees that he got from his altercations. Medical personnel attended to him in the emergency department but he was intoxicated and combative, DPP Tan told the court. Around 5am, a 40-year-old nurse was holding onto his leg so that a doctor could administer an intravenous drip, but he began kicking outwards and shouting vulgarities. This included: “Get your f***ing hands off me.” He then kicked the nurse, making contact with her left upper chest and collarbone. She had to stop her work and step out of the emergency department due to the pain. She was given three days of medical leave. For voluntarily causing hurt, Fletcher could have been jailed for up to three years or fined up to S$5,000, or punished with both.

  17. Timing is everything. Online furniture shop FortyTwo had messaged Stomper Kenneth that the two wardrobes he ordered would be delivered in the afternoon between 2pm and 5pm on July 20. But he said the furniture arrived in the morning at 9am without any notification. He told Stomp: "Worse, they just placed the bulky items outside, blocking the staircase and the neighbour’s home unless you don’t mind customer or town council complaints." He shared photos of the two unassembled wardrobes crowding the common area. Kenneth said: "The customer service can tell you they couldn’t do anything, admitting it was their fault for delivering the items outside the time frame. "Knowing it was their mistake, they would not come back for the assembly you have paid for. "Until I had to tell them that I had to cancel the order. Then they immediately came and cleared the items. "And worse, you get a scolding from the delivery men." In the screenshots of the messages from FortyTwo that Kenneth shared with Stomp, the company apologised, saying: "This situation is not ordinary and these incidents are not typical of us." FortyTwo explained what happened: "The delivery team sending both of the wardrobes (unassembled sets) to you earlier than the given timing (2pm-5pm) was actually our third-party delivery logistics team. They didn’t inform us about the whole situation until you had contacted us. "We tried to contact them to pick up the items and re-deliver them on the given timing, but they said they could only be back in the afternoon because they were already out of the location." FortyTwo added that it has permanently stopped its partnership with the third-party logistics company effective immediately. The furniture seller also offered the Stomper a 25 per cent discount code for his next purchase with no minimum spending required. FortyTwo said that it has proceeded with the cancellation and refund of Kenneth’s entire $1,977 order. The Stomper called it the “worst customer and delivery services ever encountered in my entire purchase experience with FortyTwo”. Recently, Stomp reported another customer having issues with an online furniture shop, Miyamiko, which took more than 11 weeks to repair a crack in a bed frame the customer bought.

  21. SINGAPORE - Electronic Road Pricing (ERP) rates at four locations will go up by $1 from next month in response to increased traffic. The Land Transport Authority (LTA) said on Wednesday (July 27) that rates at the gantries on Ayer-Rajah Expressway (AYE) after Jurong Townhall towards the city; on the southbound Central Expressway (CTE) after Braddell Road and the Pan-Island Expressway (PIE) slip road into the southbound CTE; on the Kallang-Paya Lebar Expressway (East Coast Parkway), also known as KPE (ECP), after Defu Flyover; and on the northbound CTE after PIE will all go up from Aug 1 during eight specified time periods. LTA said traffic has been building up on various stretches of expressways, and that the rate adjustments are to manage congestion at these locations. It continually reviews ERP rates according to how busy roads are, with the last increase in May when the ERP rates of gantries at eight locations were raised. At the three gantries on AYE after Jurong Townhall towards the city, motorists will pay $2 from 8am to 8.30am, and from 5.30pm to 6pm. From 8.30am to 9am, they will pay $3, up from the current $2. At the four gantries on the southbound CTE after Braddell Road and the PIE slip road into the southbound CTE, rates have been increased from $2 to $3 from 8am to 8.30am. Rates at the ERP gantry on KPE (ECP) after Defu Flyover have also been adjusted upwards. From 7.30am to 8.30am, the rate is $2, while from 8.30am to 9am, it is $3. Finally, the rates at the two gantries on the northbound CTE after PIE will be $2 from 7pm to 7.30pm, up from $1. LTA had suspended ERP at most locations during the Covid-19 pandemic but has said it will be slowly increasing them with the easing of community and workplace measures. It reiterated that these are timeslots that are already priced today. "There is no increase in the number of timeslots or locations charged with ERP with this review. After the adjustment from Aug 1, the number of locations and timeslots charged is still significantly lower than the number charged pre-Covid-19," said LTA.

  22. Although ordering food delivery is just a few clicks away these days, one man here decided to take things up a notch with his clever set-up. Steve Ho took to TikTok to show off his invention on July 23, where he sent his remote-controlled car out on an errand to procure his dinner. More from AsiaOneRead the condensed version of this story, and other top stories with NewsLite. Equipping his car with a camera, the 35-year-old was able to record the car's journey from his house to the coffee shop. Communicating through a speaker attached to the remote-controlled car, Ho said to a female stall assistant in Mandarin: "Pretty lady, I'd like to order a salted egg pork rib rice." "Where's the money?" another staff asked in Mandarin, to which Ho replied: "It's in my box." As Ho's order was in the kitchen, some of the coffee shop staff took the opportunity to interact with the remote-controlled car by waving at the camera and taking pictures of it. One of them even gamely helped to redirect the car when it was stuck while trying to do a U-turn after Ho's order was loaded onto the box. "I accidentally switched to high torque mode, that's why [it] collided," Ho explained in a comment. Replying to other users, Ho shared that he still has to go to the lift lobby to send the car down and to bring it back up. Speaking to AsiaOne, Ho said that he decided to use the remote-controlled car to run his errands due to the recent surge of Covid-19 cases. "I am mitigating my plans of traveling out especially [to] public places where the crowds are," he said. He shared that the use of remote-controlled cars to run errands are rather popular in China. When asked about how long it took for him to create a workable prototype, Ho said it took him "a couple of months" as the parts from China took some time to reach him. He declined to reveal how much he spent on this set-up. In fact, the zi char run wasn't the car's first mission. Ho had actually first sent the car out to a nearby supermarket to buy some late-night snacks — which he documented in a TikTok video posted July 15. The four-minute video also showed some of the difficulties the car encountered, such as not being able to reach the traffic light button. Upon reaching the supermarket, it took quite some time before Ho was able to get the attention of the staff. "Hello, any Giant staff around? I want to buy something," Ho repeated. When he finally caught the attention of a male staff, Ho introduced himself to the bewildered man: "Hello, I am the remote-controlled car in front. I want to buy something. Can you help me?" "What is this thing? I don't know what he's saying," the staff could be heard remarking to his colleague. After some repeating, Ho finally told the staff what he wanted: a bottle of chilled Coca-Cola and an ice cream. To pay for his snacks, Ho told the staff to take a $10 note inside the basket attached to the car. At the time of writing, Ho's video has garnered over 103,700 views and more than 400 comments from netizens who praised him for his ingenuity. "This guy living in 3022," one user wrote, while another suggested that Ho leave a note inside the basket with his order to make things easier for the staff. PHOTO: Screengrab/TikTok Marvelling at his creation aside, there were also others who brought up some safety concerns, citing the possibility that someone might hijack the car. However, these remarks didn't seem to faze Ho. "I am confident of the security here in Singapore," he said. "If it does happen, there's a GPS tracker and live recording of the camera footage for me to [locate the car]. If the person [resorts] to stealing food, so be it. He or she must really be in a challenging and difficult situation." On a similar note, a woman in China also made use of a similar contraption to buy steamed buns while quarantined at home back in February 2020. The woman, surnamed Chen, told South China Morning Post then that the idea came about when she realised that she had run out of steamed buns. "My husband refused to go out, so I came up with the idea of using my remote-controlled car instead," she said. Chen, a remote-controlled car enthusiast, said she modified the car's remote control herself. Although she was planning to use it to get her daily necessities, she was forced to stop after her invention attracted too much attention from members of the public. Over in Singapore, a pilot programme using a drone to deliver food to people on Singapore's Southern Islands was launched in March this year. The programme, organised by Sentosa Development Corporation (SDC) in collaboration with ST Engineering and Foodpanda, ran from Mar 22 to April 9.
