Print out attached with July/Aug edition of SAFRA’s monthly magazine

Spot any error on this print out? Well, someone spotted an error on this print out attached with the July/August edition of Singapore Armed Forces Reservists Association (SAFRA)’s monthly magazine. Satire news site, New Nation then posted it in their site with the heading, “SAFRA magazine EPIC FAIL, says 49th birthday

For the people who are still lost, this year is the 48th anniversary of Singapore’s independence since our separation from Malaysia on 9 August 1965.

Well, flipping through the magazine to the article on the National Day Celebration with SAFRA. It seems to be a mistake confined to the print out  for the mailing.

The article which is found on page 36 of the magazine clearly writes “…48th years of independence.”

Page 36 of SAFRA's magazine, "48th year of independence"
Page 36 of SAFRA’s magazine, “48th year of independence”

While the error is only on the print out attached with the mail,  it just reminds all of us that everyone is prone to mistake no matter how established you are as an organization.

诊所提供儿童免疫计划注射 明年杪前将获津贴

为了让儿童保健和预防措施更加实惠,卫生部于周三(28日)宣布,将在2020年杪前,为所有在综合诊所注射的全国儿童免疫计划(NCIS)中的疫苗提供津贴,社保援助计划(CHAS)下的家庭诊所也将受惠。 目前该计划下的大多数疫苗,如乙型肝炎及麻疹、腮腺炎和风疹等都可在综合诊所获得全额津贴。 随着有关的变化,包括在综合诊所及CHAS家庭诊所接受的肺炎球菌病和人类乳头状瘤病毒(HPV)疫苗注射,也将获得津贴。 儿童免疫计划也推荐了数种在我国较常见的疾病疫苗,而已经获得补贴的疾病疫苗,多数都有很高的爆发潜力,如麻疹。 卫生部表示,有些如肺炎球菌病在内的个人防护疫苗较少人注射。 除了疫苗津贴,卫生部还宣布将有逾千家CHAS家庭诊所获得儿童发育筛查津贴,目前只有综合诊所获得有关津贴。 这是在昨日宣布的支持婚姻和生子的系列措施之一。 免费办理孩子首个护照 另外,在2020年1月出生的孩子,父母也将可免费为孩子申办首个护照。目前的办理费为70元。 为了享有免费护照,父母必须在孩子一岁生日前,上网申请办理护照。
