SINGAPORE: Five mayors, a dedicated team, 10 days and many Zoom meetings - that was what it took to put together the new Student Meals Scheme, set to benefit more than 12,000 students living in rental housing during the "circuit breaker" period.
As of 5pm on Thursday (Apr 16), more than 6,000 students have signed up for the scheme, two days after it was launched, Mayors’ Committee Chairman Low Yen Ling told CNA in a phone interview.
