| − | According to the 2015 report by the international diabetes foundation, Singapore has the second highest proportion of diabetics among developed nations. This is a growing concern especially when the rising obesity in children and young adults are most likely to push the rate of diabetes and such an issue can bring a huge cost to the society in terms of medical treatment and indirect productivity losses. The cost is estimated to be more than $1billion in 2010 and is expected to soar above $2.5 billion by 2050. Diabetic also increases the risk of other illness such as risk of blindness.

| − | The root of many illness, such as diabetes, is obesity. Prolonged unhealthy eating habits are the reason for obesity and many other diseases. Our team believe healthy eating habits should be cultivated from young. Hence, our project will look into proximity and concentration of fast food to primary and secondary school. Mapping the schools to these fast food, we can study whether there is a relationship between obesity in students and the presence of fast food nearby schools.
