Food security is a major issue for Singapore. Most of us probably don't think much about it because we haven't had a food shortage for as long as I can remember. But just consider this: We now import over 90% of our food. If anything should happen to hinder our ability to import food into Singapore, we would be in big trouble. Say for instance, the Singapore dollar tanks for whatever reason. Suddenly our buying power is diminished and countries which normally sell food to us would divert it to somewhere else! Or, if our sea lanes were blocked for whatever reason, we would soon find our supermarket shelves empty in a very short time!
