Teresa Kok criticises ‘sensationalised’ signs on palm oil at Singapore Zoo

02 May 2019

She said Malaysia was working hard to create a sustainable palm oil industry and that “it is sad to hear that sentiments against palm oil have also taken root in Singapore”. One sign currently at the Singapore Zoo states in part: “Illegal logging and conversion of forests to palm oil plantations are serious threats to rainforest animals.” It was not clear if this was a sign Kok was objecting to.

Kok said both producers and traders, including those based in Singapore, benefitted from the trade and export of commodities such as palm and coconut oil, produced in the Association of South-east Asian Nations region. “However, in striving to achieve such a sustainable consumption and production system, it is important to reflect that could evolve as barriers to trade and impinge upon developing nations striving to create more wealth exploitation of their natural resources,” said Kok.
