Consider also Singapore's "30x30" goal of producing 30% of its nutritional needs locally by 2030. 

The import of shrimp from Saudi Arabia exemplifies how far Singapore has been casting its net to ensure food security [Note also we import frozen chicken from as far as Brazil!]

According to the Singapore Food Agency, the country imports more than 90 per cent of its food.

Diversification of food supply sources makes Singapore more secure as a society.
