Mr Tay, who usually operates out of his shop at Everton Park, told The Straits Times that he took the opportunity to educate visitors on the finer points of TCM during the Queenstown event, which was run by the community group Queenstown Kakis and was held at a carpark in Stirling Road. It is part of Bold At Work’s Design The Good Life initiative, which comes under the nationwide Movements For Health programme, a social movement led by the Ministry of Health’s Office for Healthcare Transformation.
Many of the booths at the space in Chai Chee Avenue were created by students from Temasek Secondary School. Filos Community Services also launched a new children’s book - Can We Play Together? - written by Singapore author Emily Lim, at the event. It is the first in a four-part series of health-themed books for early readers, focusing on themes of play, eat, exercise and rest.
“I have been working very closely with partners like Filos on the ground for a number of years, and I am very happy to see the partnership working on a very important topic,” the East Coast GRC MP told ST. The other guest of honour in Chai Chee was Dr Choo Pei Ling, second adviser to the Marine Parade GRC grassroots organisations .
