Impact of Middle East Tensions on Singapore's Oil Imports, Petroleum Reserves and Household Fuel Costs

Mr Jackson Lam asked the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Trade and Industry (a) what proportion of Singapore's oil imports currently transit routes affected by the tensions in the Middle East; (b) whether strategic petroleum reserves are being reviewed in view of sustained regional instability in the Middle East; and (c) how does the Government monitor fuel price pass-through to household and public transport costs.
