Stories of Integration:30 Singaporeans who made an impact

The history of Singapore has been closely intertwined with immigration. Most Singaporean’s forefathers were immigrants. Till today, they continue to come, enticed by the strong governance, transparent work culture, equal job opportunities, safe environment and cohesive social structure that Singapore is known for. Singaporeans both, ‘old’ and ‘new’ have worked hand in hand to make the Little Red Dot an economic power to reckon with in the world. Singapore’s ability to attract the best talent and use it to its competitive advantage has been the hallmark of this nimble nation which is quick to adapt to changing situations. This book endeavours to showcase the journey of 30 naturalized Singaporeans, who come endowed with skills and talents that have benefitted the country. They have adapted to the social and religious fabric of Singapore, nurtured respect for its culture and traditions and honoured its history while forging connections within the community. They have thus made their journey to becoming Singaporean a meaningful one.

Antimicrobial Resistance in Zoonotic Bacteria

Due to the extensive antimicrobial use in humans and agriculture, antimicrobial resistance (AMR) has emerged as a major threat to global health. The intensive use of antimicrobials in animals selects AMR genes, which then can be transferred to human pathogens via a variety of horizontal gene transfer mechanisms. Although the prevalence and mechanisms of AMR have been studied in common foodborne pathogens and indicator bacteria such as Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, and the species of Enterococcus, Salmonella, and Campylobacter, the situation with other rarely investigated veterinary and zoonotic bacteria such as Leptospira, Brucella, Borrelia, Lawsonia and other genera is less clear. In addition, the majority of surveillance and control programs have been designed to target commensal and zoonotic bacteria in food production animals, thus AMR bacteria in companion, wild and other animals have received less attention.
