Huh. Does Singapore not need insect pollinators?

I believe there's very little agriculture in Singapore - almost all food is imported.
Singapore has some limited 'agriculture' (and a big shift to industrialised hydroponics and stuff); but most is outside the city.

It's indeed quite scary how much pesticides are currently used and how a lot of the green patches and parks have little flies, butterflies, and other insects.

I am curious. Do you have a reference for that?
