Read NEA's reply in the papers recently ? Read comments on forums ?
OK Singaporean can learn to patronize only the clean stalls, therefore dirty stalls who wants to stay in business will be forced to clean up.
Management committees in charge of temporary markets are stepping up efforts to educate the stall owners to stay back for extra cleaning up.
Those eateries in the hospitals practise seven steps of hand washing techniques. Inspections are on a regular basis, four times a week.
Though improvements are on going, still someone has to be directly in-charge and be held accountable and responsible for the cleaniness of all eateries in Singapore. What happens if the food contamination affects the whole hawker centre and thousands of Singaporeans are sick, hundredth dead ? If it is not contained, can it become an epidemic?
