3.2 Singaporeans in Conversation
For those who are still in Singapore, if you take a personal interest in societal issues revolving around youths, then this is a great opportunity for you!
Dr Vivian Balakrishnan is our guest-of-honour and key speaker! With a small audience size of 200, and an interaction and mingling session after that, it shouldn't be difficult to find an opportunity to approach Minister and present him with burning questions you may have! This event is also purely Q&A - no, Minister will not be making a long speech, because we want to hear from you! Minister Vivian is candid (we have met him recently to discuss about this dialogue) and is really looking out to interact with youths! Being the Minister of MCYS, who else can be more appropriate to address the theme of "The Singapore Dream vs The Singapore Reality"?
I personally am excited about the dynamics of this dialogue and the exchange of ideas that can potentially result from this collaboration between the government leaders and youths! Come be a part of this today!
Hurry, registration closes on* 8th August!* * * Registration can be done online or via downloading of the registration form from our website
Detailed instructions can be found at http://sginc.sg
