Had the chance to speak to students from Republic Polytechnic and Temasek Polytechnic who concluded a 4-day residential camp called Mission X, organised by Youth Corps Singapore. I shared with them the importance of education and how they can kick-start their volunteering journey while balancing other commitments in their daily lives as students. I am confident that the next generation of youth community service leaders will be able to step up and play an active role to help tackle emerging issues and needs within their own areas of interests. #MissionX #YouthCorpsSG #NYCSG https://www.instagram.com/p/B2N1f4MnxuL/?igshid=mqo5u29wf778

Joined our Youth Leaders from the @nycsg at The SG Bicentennial Experience to remind ourselves of how far Singapore has come and also how we can shape the future for our young people! While we champion the different areas for the benefit of our young people, this engagement allows us to we forge even more partnership opportunities beyond the areas that we represent. Together, we can shape a better future for Singapore and Singaporeans! #nycsg #mccysg https://www.instagram.com/p/B1xLmJaHp8a/?igshid=1lxfc94cv3sn5

Belated congratulations to our Singapore Youth Award 2018 recipients! All six of you are living stories of the impact you can bring when passion is coupled with a heart for others. Continue touching the lives of people around you, and not give up on doing good. Stories like yours redefine our society’s notion of success, and I hope more youth will follow suit and take that step to make a difference. #SYA2018 #SingaporeYouthAward #nycsg https://www.instagram.com/p/Bpk5SK9n5fM/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=13kt14s1xj0ey

Continue touching the lives of people around you, and not give up on doing good. Stories like yours redefine our society’s notion of success, and I hope more youth will follow suit and take that step to make a difference. In particular, I find Jason Chee’s achievements most inspiring, having overcome a horrific accident which took away three of his limbs and losing an eye to cancer. #SYA2018 #SingaporeYouthAward #nycsg https://www.instagram.com/p/Bpk4Mc4HTQq/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=um7hs7h2gz2t

Joined in the festivities at the recent YOUTHx weekend! With the three key anchor events - SHINE Festival, Hyperplay and GetActive!SG – it was a great platform to see our youth shine in their talent and passion. I was also at the Hyperplay finals together with our friends from around the region. We are honoured to be hosting the first-ever ASEAN esports tournament and music festival as part of our ASEAN chairmanship this year. Glad to see our youth stepping out of their comfort zones to chase their dreams while making new friends from around the region. You’ll only discover your potential if you are willing to take that first step! #nycsg #YOUTHx #SHINEFest #PassionxPurpose

Looking forward to the performances by the likes of @jasonyuuu, @yahuiyh and @sufierashid at Voices of Youth – A Night of Music & Giving this Sunday!

Met some of our friends from the green groups at the OBS Punggol Campsite recently. We had the opportunity to interact with students from the MOE-OBS Challenge Programme, who were practising their newly acquired minimal impact camping skills! We also shared ideas on how to take care of our environment and discussed ways to minimise environmental impact on the upcoming OBS@Coney development. Thankful for our green groups’ support as we stand together as environmental stewards! #nycsg #outwardboundsg
