A population based survey has measured alcohol consumption by questionnaire in persons aged 18 to 69 years in Singapore. The majority were "occasional/none" drinkers, being males (Chinese 87%, Malays 99% and Indians 80%) and females (Chinese 98%, Malays 100% and Indians 100%). "Heavy" consumption was uncommon in males (Chinese 0.6%, Malays 0% and Indians 1.3%) and absent in females, while "heavy/moderate" drinking was males (Chinese 5.7%, Malays 0.5% and Indians 3.8%) and females (Chinese 0.3%, Malays 0% and Indians 0%). For males, "light" drinking was highest in Indians (15.9%), then Chinese (7.8%) and then Malays (0.5%). This survey indicates that alcohol consumption is not yet a major public health problem in Singapore.
一项基于人群的调查通过问卷调查了新加坡18至69岁人群的饮酒情况。大多数人是“偶尔饮酒/不饮酒者”，男性（华裔87%、马来裔99%、印度裔80%）和女性（华裔98%、马来裔100%、印度裔100%）皆是如此。“重度”饮酒在男性中不常见（华裔0.6%、马来裔0%、印度裔1.3%），女性中则不存在；而“重度/中度”饮酒的男性（华裔5.7%、马来裔0.5%、印度裔3.8%）和女性（华裔0.3%、马来裔0%、印度裔0%）。对于男性而言，“轻度”饮酒比例最高的是印度裔（15.9%），其次是华裔（7.8%），然后是马来裔（0.5%）。这项调查表明，饮酒在新加坡尚未成为一个主要的公共卫生问题。
