Speech by George Yeo, Minister for Foreign Affairs and MP for Aljunied GRC, at the "Bountiful Joy@Bedok Reservoir" Event on 24 February 2007 at 9.00 am

Dear Residents, Ladies and Gentlemen

Let me first wish everyone a Happy New Year of the Pig. Today is the 7th Day of the Chinese New Year which is everyone's birthday. For the first time, we are holding a ceremony to release fish into Bedok Reservoir. I hope this will become an annual tradition for us. We have embarked on a number of projects to make this reservoir a place for us to enjoy - fishing, boating, walking, jogging and so on. Let us work together to protect the environment and keep the water clean. Thank you.
