Good evening!

2020 has been a very challenging year. But we are ending the year on a brighter note than at the start of the COVID-19 pandemic.

With everyone observing safe management measures, we managed to contain the spread of the virus in Singapore. I thank all our frontline and essential workers for keeping us safe and keeping Singapore going.

Many of you also went the extra mile to help those around you. As we look forward to 2021, we must continue this spirit of caring for one another and working together. Only then can we emerge stronger from this crisis.

Let us stay safe and stay healthy.

Happy New Year!
