According to the media release, priority will be given to the "unsung heroes"
"Priority is given to the unsung heroes: the group of workers whose work is often less visible yet integral to the frontline response, e.g. the housekeeping staff, patient care assistants and ambulance drivers etc."
Lim hopes that these meals will boost the morale of these frontline healthcare workers and bring them some comfort in this difficult period.
