Risk and hazard are terms commonly used to describe aspects of the potential for harm caused by environmental factors and other agents. Since 2014, Singapore has been striving to achieve the vision of being a smart nation. The most integral step in this direction is the analysis and assessment of risk, for it is only by doing so that we can build a healthy, safe and prepared smart nation. After all the steps taken by the Singaporean government and society to be more risk-free, it is important to understand our vulnerability - in terms of dominant contributing factors, location and key institutions that could potentially be affected by these risks. "Risk" is an umbrella term that could cover a number of topics and factors. It could even span industries. Therefore for the purpose of this study, we will define the boundaries of our risk assessment according to 4 agents of risk namely, 1. Biological(biohazards), |
