Earlier this year, there were several incidents in Singapore involving bees, including one where over 20 homes in Punggol were invaded by bees, and another where five were taken to hospital after getting stung by bees at Sungei Buloh Wetland Reserve.

Bees conventionally strike fear in people because they can sting, but our guest for today’s Morning Shot isn’t one who’s easily fazed by these winged creatures. 

After retiring from his 37-year teaching stint, John Chong, Founder of BEE AMAZED Garden, is keeping himself bee-sy, educating others about beekeeping and even helps to rehouse bees from homes and offices so that they can continue thriving in locations suitable for them. 

And for the first time ever, John has harvested honey from his swarm of over 100,000 Asian honeybees from his rooftop bee farm at the Singapore University of Social Sciences - the country’s first bee-friendly university!
