“There are multiple messages in all the tracks of the 10-song cycle. But the one message that I hope will stay with listeners, especially those with mental health conditions, is that they are not alone.”

The pandemic has made many of us think about the uncertainties we face. Planning ahead and making your Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA) will give you and your loved ones peace of mind that there will be a trusted person to make decisions on your behalf if you lose your mental capacity one day.
To make it more convenient for Singaporeans, we are proposing to amend the Mental Capacity Act to allow for digitalisation of the LPA.
Share your feedback on our proposed amendments from now to 18 November 2020 at go.gov.sg/mcapublicconsultation and help us serve you better!

#LetsMeet Monica Datta from DBS, who has been working with The Food Bank Singapore to develop a nationwide virtual food banking platform that aims to provide support to families in need and reduce food waste at the same time.
“We believe that no one should go hungry, and wanted to do something to help vulnerable individuals and families who are struggling with basic food needs. Over the past year, we have been working on an app that allows food support organisations to submit requests from their beneficiaries directly to food donors. I’m looking forward to the app's launch later this year, as I hope it will help to reduce one of Singapore's largest waste streams, food waste, and lead to a more food secure world in the future.”
