Emergency starter kits for all households By AUDREY TAN ALL households in Singapore will get three N95 masks delivered free to their homes from today, in the largest mask distribution exercise to date. They are part of an emergency starter kit which will be delivered to all 1.2 million households by Monday, said Temasek Cares yesterday. The non-profit, philanthropic arm of Temasek Holdings is partnering Singapore Power and Singapore Post for the $4 million programme. Aside from the 3M-manufactured masks, the kit will also contain information on how to wear the masks and emergency contact numbers. Temasek Cares chairman Richard Magnus said the programme hopes to spur Singaporeans into thinking about emergency preparedness. “The starter kit includes three N95 masks so that each household can have an initial stock in case of a flu pandemic or severe haze,” he said. “We hope (the kits) will prompt individuals and families to develop their own emergency plans.” Households with more than three people could consider buying more N95 masks, or bulk up their emergency “grab bags” by including medication or vitamins required by members of the family, Mr Magnus said. Being prepared could also mitigate the problem of people rushing to buy products, such as masks, during emergencies. Mr Magnus added: “Before the emergency arises, they would have already taken action so they are prepared – just like having an umbrella for a rainy day.” The starter kit initiative is the The emergency starter kit distribution exercise was symbolically flagged off yesterday at the Singapore Power training institute. Present were (from left, by the van) Singapore Power chairman Mohd Hassan Marican, Temasek Cares chairman Richard Magnus, Singapore Post’s executive vice-president and head of postal services Woo Keng Leong, and 3M Singapore’s general manager of safety and graphics group Helen Foo, and Singapore Power and Singapore Post staff.

The first is a $1.5 million programme to train 60 social workers, therapists and school counsellors in trauma-focused therapy for children. The fund, administered by Temasek Cares under its Stay Prepared initiative, aims to help Singaporeans build up community resources to deal with emergencies. On top of the starter kits for households, 17,000 kits will go to 144 charities including the Metta Home for the Disabled and The Salvation Army Gracehaven. Another 300,000 will be on standby for needy families in case of a crisis. The mask distribution exercise is the largest to date. At the peak of the haze in June last year, one million N95 masks were earmarked for 200,000 of the poorest households and vulnerable Singaporeans. During the epidemic of severe acute respiratory syndrome (Sars) in 2003, two surgical masks and a thermometer were distributed to 1.1 million households. Communications officer Jaclyn Sim, 31, said organisers could consider giving masks only to low-income households as those who earn more “can easily get their own”. “To get Singaporeans thinking, a brochure with graphics depicting different emergency scenarios may be better,” she added. audreyt@sph.com.sg N95 masks can be stored for five years THE N95 masks that went on sale during the haze period last year can still be used as they have a shelf life of five years. But Ms Foo Meow Ling, a nurse clinician at the infection control unit at Khoo Teck Puat Hospital, said there should be “no air leakage around the face when the wearer exhales”. Ms Helen Foo, general manager at mask manufacturer and technology firm 3M, said: “After five years, the nose clip and elastic headband may loosen or disintegrate, leading to a poor face seal and affecting the effectiveness.” The masks should also be changed when “the wearer finds it hard to breathe, or when it is soiled or physically damaged”, she added. The N95 mask is “at least 95 per cent efficient against fine particles that are about 0.1 to 0.3 microns” in size, according to the Health Ministry’s website. It is 99.5 per cent efficient against larger particles, such as those 0.75 microns and above. This makes it effective for use against the PM2.5 particle, an air pollutant associated with vehicle emissions and the haze that is less than 2.5 microns in size. Masks should also be stored in their original packaging and in cool and dry conditions, said 3M’s Ms Foo. AUDREY TAN

News Release SP Group Expands Marina Bay District Cooling Network With New Partnerships 8 Shenton Way, IOI Central Boulevard Towers, 80 Anson Road, Marina Bay Sands Integrated Resort Expansion and NS Square, will be connected to the world’s largest underground district cooling network Sustainable cooling solution helps Marina Bay avoid almost 20,000 tonnes of carbon emissions annually Singapore, 20 April 2022 – SP Group (SP) announced that it will be providing its energy efficient district cooling services to five upcoming new and retrofit developments – 8 Shenton Way (formerly AXA Tower), the commercial component of 80 Anson Road (formerly Fuji Xerox Towers), IOI Central Boulevard Towers, Marina Bay Sands Integrated Resort Expansion and NS Square – through its Marina Bay District Cooling Network. Marina Bay is planned as a sustainable live-work-play district, and all developments are served by a comprehensive underground network of common services tunnels that houses the district cooling system.1 The addition of the five developments will further expand the world’s largest underground district cooling network, bringing the total number of buildings served by SP’s Marina Bay operations to 28. SP’s sustainable cooling solution will help the Marina Bay district reduce its carbon emissions by 19,439 tonnes annually while providing the same cool comfort. This is equivalent to removing 17,672 cars off our roads. At an appreciation event held earlier today which marked the expansion of the Marina Bay District Cooling network, Mr Desmond Lee, Minister for National Development and Minister-in-charge of Social Services Integration, presented certificates of appreciation to the building owners of the five buildings – City Developments Limited (CDL), IOI Properties, Marina Bay Sands Singapore, NS Square, and Perennial Holdings – affirming their commitment to the sustainable development of our city centre. Through subscribing to district cooling, the new developments will enjoy reliable cooling comfort with the network achieving zero supply interruptions since the Marina Bay District Cooling operations started in 2006. Without the need to invest in their own chillers, the new developments will enjoy a lower initial investment cost compared to a conventional air-conditioning system. The savings on equipment, operating and maintenance costs will also reduce the total cost of ownership by up to 15 per cent. Having centralised chiller plants also frees up prime space for other commercial or lifestyle purposes, potentially increasing asset yield for building owners. SP’s Group Chief Executive Officer, Mr Stanley Huang, said, “SP Group is the largest district cooling solutions provider in Singapore. With the expanded infrastructure in place, we are pleased to extend the same reliable and sustainable solution to other buildings in Singapore’s core financial district and look forward to welcoming more partners to this network. Together, we can accelerate the development of greener buildings and cities to achieve Singapore’s ambitious sustainability targets.” In addition to the energy savings and the reduction in carbon emissions, developments will also benefit from the centralisation of ownership and maintenance of their cooling systems under a district cooling operator, ensuring optimal operations at all times. SP as the district cooling operator is responsible for meeting the industry sustainability standards. Under the latest BCA Green Mark 2021 (GM: 2021) green building certification scheme, buildings supplied by an external district cooling system (DCS) plant have a dedicated pathway to demonstrate their energy efficiency performance, allowing for a more seamless certification experience. With the inclusion of these new customers, SP will be increasing the capacity of its Marina Bay district cooling network to 70,000 refrigerant tons (RT). It will also add more than two kilometres of underground insulated pipes to the network to cater to the additional demand and cooling capacity. To further enhance the reliability of the network, SP is exploring installing thermal storage tanks in the neighbouring Central Business District to increase the network’s energy storage capacity. These auxiliary chilled water tanks will enable the existing network to significantly reduce its peak load consumption and support future expansion of the cooling network beyond the Marina Bay vicinity. Additional energy storage capacity will also facilitate the incorporation of more renewable energy sources to the grid by mitigating the intermittency of renewables while maintaining grid stability and reliability. The deployment of energy storage systems, such as thermal storage tanks, is in line with government’s energy storage target and vision of a clean and efficient energy future. SP continues to actively engage with potential customers to further expand the Marina Bay district cooling network. It is currently studying the feasibility of M Hotel Singapore, a hotel under the CDL Group, being the first brownfield hotel development to incorporate district cooling in its operations. In addition to the Marina Bay district cooling network, SP is also collaborating with the Housing and Development Board (HDB) to deploy Singapore’s first residential centralised cooling system for up to 22,000 households at the upcoming Tengah housing estate by 2023. SP will also be developing Singapore’s first brownfield, sustainable cooling solution for a town centre at Tampines. When completed, SP will be operating a total 118,500 RTs of cooling capacity through its district cooling networks, extending its lead as the biggest provider of district cooling solutions in Singapore. 1District cooling in Marina Bay provides centralised cooling to developments in the area. There are two district cooling plants in Marina Bay, both situated underground and seamlessly integrated with the surrounding developments, providing greater reliability of services and allows more efficient use of energy across the district. SP Group operates the district cooling network in Marina Bay. - Ends - Quotes from new partners Quote from City Developments Limited for 80 Anson Road (formerly Fuji Xerox Towers) We are delighted for 80 Anson Road’s commercial space to be part of SP Group’s initiative to provide sustainable cooling solutions to the Marina Bay district.

Media Release SP Group donates $850,000 for preventive outreach to isolated youths, run by Youth Guidance Outreach Services Cyber Outreach initiative aims to prevent them from becoming “hidden youth”. SINGAPORE, 5 DECEMBER 2025 – SP Group (SP) is donating S$850,000 to Youth Guidance Outreach Services (YGOS), to support its Cyber Outreach initiative, providing rehabilitation and prevention programmes for youths who may be addicted to online gaming and face the risk of social isolation. Through early intervention, the initiative aims to prevent them from becoming “hidden youth” – individuals who are disconnected from school, family, and the community and isolate themselves at home. This builds on SP Group’s past contributions to YGOS’ outreach programmes, bringing its total contributions to S$1.6 million. The initiative was launched today by Mr Xie Yao Quan, Advisor for Jurong Central GROs. Mr Xie witnessed the presentation of SP’s donation to YGOS, which was made through Community Chest. Extensive social isolation among youths can lead to poor physical health, strained family relationships, increased risks of psychological issues and even suicidal behaviours[1]. According to the Ministry of Manpower’s 2024 Labour Force Survey[2], around 17,000 youth, aged 15 to 24, in Singapore were not in school, employed nor undergoing any form of training in 2023. This represents 4.1 per cent of youth in Singapore who may be at risk of becoming “hidden youth”. This year, the government reaffirmed its commitment to preserve social mobility and strengthen safety nets – building a nation that prioritises youths and future generations. In his first parliamentary address as Prime Minister, Lawrence Wong[3] cited growing concerns among young people on intensified competition and social stratification, highlighting similar global trends such as "躺平 (tang ping)" in China, "hikikomori" in Japan and "quiet quitting" in the West. He emphasised Singapore’s commitment to defy these trends. Mr Xie said, “The world our youth face today is changing faster than ever – shaped by technology, global challenges, and evolving social norms. As a community, we must respond with understanding and action by creating safe spaces, strengthening family bonds, and offering various pathways for learning and growth. Together, we can help young Singaporeans feel valued and supported in building their future.” Mr Stanley Huang, Group CEO of SP Group, added, "Our youth today are the foundation and future talent pipeline for our nation’s growth and development. We are committed to empowering them with the right support and resources to thrive in an increasingly complex digital world. By effectively engaging them where they are, we can connect with them in ways that resonate with their interests, and foster a sense of self-worth and belonging. This in turn can help build their confidence, hone their social skills and prepare them for a smooth transition into young adulthood.” “We believe that early intervention is critical in supporting youths before challenges escalate. With the launch of our Cyber Outreach, a dedicated team to run the programme, and through our ongoing initiatives, we aim to extend sphere of connections and mentoring efforts. These will help us go further in creating a stronger and more supportive ecosystem – where every youth feels safe, seen, and empowered to do their best”, said Wilson Tan, Executive Director of YGOS. One of the youths who has benefitted from the intervention programme is 14-year-old Joey Chung. Joey was constantly immersed in online activities as she felt unseen and unheard. Before joining YGOS, she often hid behind the screen – a common behaviour among hidden youths who turn to gaming or online spaces to feel safe. At YGOS, Joey found something different: a genuine connection with a community that values her for who she is, beyond just a username. “I usually play Roblox with my online friends through a masked identity,” she said. “But here, I feel supported and can be myself. The mentors here actually care, listen and encourage me to express my doubts and concerns, and share about things that bring me joy.” A highlight of the event today was a gaming tournament attended by youths between the ages of 13 and 24 years old and community partners. About 120 participants, including a team from SP’s gaming interest group, competed in Mobile Legends: Bang Bang, a multiplayer online battle arena mobile game. By bringing the youths together to interact in person on a common interest in a safe, environment, the event aims to foster genuine connections and build a sense of community. Beyond the tournament, the youths explored educational and interactive booths hosted by YGOS, REACH Community Services and Fei Yue Community Services. These booths offered various outreach services such as how YGOS’ Cyber Outreach team connects with hidden youths online to draw them out of isolation. In 2023, SP contributed $750,000 to YGOS to launch the first-of-its-kind mobile youth engagement outpost with an electric vehicle, and to enable the full refurbishment of its youth centres in Woodlands and Ang Mo Kio to expand service delivery and outreach programmes.

GAS TRANSPORTATION TARIFFS (for Shippers with customers off-taking natural gas at high pressure) (W.E.F. 1 Apr 25) 1 Introduction 1.1 Under the Gas Network Code, PowerGas is the Gas Transporter and is responsible for maintaining the reliability and safety of the gas transportation network in Singapore. PowerGas’ transportation business is regulated by the Energy Market Authority (EMA). The transportation tariffs levied by PowerGas are approved by the EMA. 1.2 PowerGas charges transportation tariffs for the transport of gas through its network. PowerGas’ transportation tariffs are levied on Shippers and not the end-users. End-users’ transportation charges imposed by Shippers are commercial arrangements between both parties. 2 Natural Gas Transmission Tariffs 2.1 There are two gas transmission networks, namely Transmission Network 1 and Transmission Network 2. Transmission Network 1 refers to the natural gas transmission network conveying both piped natural gas and regasified LNG from West Natuna (Indonesia) and the LNG Terminal. Transmission Network 2 is the natural gas transmission network conveying both piped natural gas and regasified LNG from South Sumatra (Indonesia), Attap Valley (Malaysia) and the LNG Terminal. 2.2 Transmission tariffs consist of capacity and usage charges (refer to Section 3 below for details). These charges are applicable to Shippers off-taking gas at high pressure. The same charging structure also applies to Shippers with Small Transmission Customers (i.e. with load less than or equal to 5 bbtud). 3 Transmission Charging Structure 3.1 Shippers book capacity with PowerGas to transport gas from designated injection points to off-take points. Shippers pay entry and exit charges based on their respective booked capacity. In addition, a usage charge is levied on the volume of gas transported. 3.2 Arising from EMA’s notification to the industry dated 21 March 2024, a GSC of 22 cents/mmBtu for PNG Injection Points or GSC of 3 cents/mmBtu for LNG Injection Points is imposed on PNG and LNG gas users respectively with effect from 1 Apr 25 to recover the cost associated with Strategic Capacity (as defined in EMA's Policy Paper issued to the industry dated 30 Sep 2019). The Transporter will collect the GSC from all Shippers as an agent for and on behalf of SLNG. The GSC will be reviewed from time to time as directed by EMA and will be included as an uplift in the usage charge. Details of the transmission charges are shown in Table 1 of the Appendix. 3.3 These transmission charges do not include specific cost items which need to be determined on a case-by-case basis for inclusion into the final transmission charges. 3.4 For Shippers with Small Transmission Customers (i.e. requiring gas at high pressure, but with load of less than or equal to 5 bbtud), the transportation charges as shown in Table 2 of the appendix shall apply. 3.5 Shippers will have to pay Overrun Charges in the event they off-take gas above their booked capacity. These Overrun Charges are necessary to encourage the efficient use of the gas network. There are two types of Overrun Charges: • Authorised Capacity Overrun Charge: If a Shipper applies for additional capacity above the booked capacity (i.e. capacity overrun), the Authorised Capacity Overrun Charge, equivalent to 1.25 times the Transmission Capacity Charge rate, shall be applied on that additional capacity. 2 • Unauthorised Capacity Overrun Charge: If a Shipper does not apply for Authorised Capacity Overrun for utilisation of additional capacity above the booked capacity, it will pay 2 times the Transmission Capacity Charge rate for that additional capacity utilised. 4 Appendix – Table of Charges Transmission Network 1 (locational) Transmission Network 2 (locational) Table 1: Transmission Charges (Exclusive of GST) Entry Capacity Charge per annum ($/MMBtu/hr) Exit Capacity Charge per annum ($/MMBtu/hr/km) Transmission Usage Charge ($/MMBtu) 891.91 57.94 0.0087 1,503.65 (Attap Valley Injection Point) 1,093.61 (Sakra Injection Point) 43.07 0.0132 New Pipeline – utilised 276.51 276.51* 0.0034 New Pipeline – excess 232.31 232.31* 0.0041 GSC for PNG Injection Point N.A.
