This Week’s Best-Dressed Local Stars: Jul 17-24

Deputy Prime Minister Gan Kim Yong has drawn reactions online after sharing a selfie taken in a car on the way to the airport for a trip to the United States. The post comes shortly after his speech in Parliament encouraging Singaporeans to conserve energy by opting for public transport over private cars, as well as a recent appearance where he was seen taking the Punggol LRT. Some netizens questioned the choice of transport and called for leaders to lead by example, while others welcomed the move towards public transport use and encouraged further steps such as taking buses or even cycling. The discussion reflects broader conversations in Singapore around sustainability, energy conservation, and the practicality of reducing reliance on private vehicles. #8dayssg #8dayssgtrending #singapore #sgnews #sgviral

A Singapore construction site has reached 6 million accident-free man hours, marking a major safety milestone in one of the country’s highest-risk industries. Accident-free man hours refer to the total number of hours worked across all workers without a single injury, often used as a benchmark for workplace safety performance in construction projects. While such achievements are widely celebrated, Singapore’s construction sector continues to face challenges, with dozens of deaths and major injuries reported in 2025 alone. At the same time, improvements in worker welfare — including upgraded dormitories with better living conditions, recreational facilities, and shared spaces — are becoming a key part of the broader push towards safer worksites. #8dayssg #8dayssgtrending #singapore #sgnews #migrantworkers
