The parade and fireworks may be over, but Singapore’s 60th birthday spirit continued at our National Day Luncheon at Chui Huay Lim Club!
We were honoured to host ambassadors and diplomats from ASEAN and beyond—including Poland, Spain and Bangladesh —alongside local community leaders, and our esteemed guests Mr Heng Swee Keat, Singapore’s former DPM (2019-2025), Mrs Heng (also known as Ms Chang Hwee Nee), CEO of National Heritage Board, MP Shawn Huang (Senior Parliamentary Secretary, MOF & MOM) and former MP Cynthia Phua.
This luncheon was especially significant. A decade ago, Mr Heng chaired the SG50 Steering Committee, envisioning a future where ground-up efforts would shape Singapore’s journey. Today, that vision lives on. The SG100 Foundation, founded by Dennis Ng, is one such initiative—mentoring youths, uniting communities to shape the future of Singapore together.
As PM Lawrence Wong reminded us in his National Day Rally, it is our turn to partner one another and the Government—“rolling up our sleeves, coming up with solutions, and turning good ideas into reality.”
At the luncheon, we also shared the success of our ASEAN education projects—and we look forward to partnering with like-minded people to grow more initiatives that will strengthen Singapore and our region together.
Here’s to 60 years of progress—and to building the next 40, hand in hand.
