NOTICE PAPER NO. 550  

NOTICE OF QUESTION FOR WRITTEN ANSWER 

FOR THE SITTING OF PARLIAMENT ON 2 MARCH 2026 

Name and Constituency of Member of Parliament 

Mr David Hoe 

MP for Jurong East-Bukit Batok GRC 
 

Question No. 1110 

To ask the Coordinating Minister for Social Policies and Minister for Health (a) whether HPB has assessed the potential of “smart” public outdoor fitness corners such as those in major Chinese cities that provide guided workouts and track activity to improve physical activity levels, especially for seniors and lower-income residents; and (b) whether HPB will consider working with relevant agencies to pilot such facilities in heartland areas such as Clementi. 

Answer 

1       The Health Promotion Board (HPB) has not conducted assessments of smart public outdoor fitness corners. 

2       Singapore has adopted our own solutions, with over 3,400 outdoor fitness corners and 28 ActiveSG gyms island-wide that provide accessible exercise options for residents, including seniors and lower-income groups. To support residents in using these facilities, HPB provides online resources on HealthHub that guide users on how to effectively utilise fitness facilities. In addition, the Healthy 365 app enables residents to track their activities and set activity goals, and provides digital physical activity programmes.
