Mr Teo Chee Hean, Deputy Prime Minister (DPM) & Coordinating Minister for National Security, together with Advisers to MESRA, Mr Masagos Zulkifli, Minister for Environment and Water Resources and Associate Professor (A/P) Muhammad Faishal Ibrahim, Senior Parliamentary Secretary, Ministry of Social and Family Development & Ministry of Education, will be gracing the MAECs 40th Anniversary Gala Dinner MESRA Lebaran 2017 at the Orchard Hotel. It will be attended by about 900 guests. 2 Set up in 1977, the MAECs have played an important role in galvanising the Malay community in supporting the nation’s growth through the years. They have fostered bonds within the Malay community and built bridges with others, contributing to racial harmony and social cohesion. The Malay Activity Excutive Committee Council (MESRA), the coordinating body for MAECs, oversees and guides the 97 MAECs, spread across 89 constituencies, in their engagement with the Malay/Muslim community, and the community at large. 1 More Targeted Community Outreach and Engagement 3 PA MESRA and the MAECs will embark on a refreshed strategic plan to step up their continuing efforts to reach out and connect with the Malay and wider community through a more resident-centric approach in its programming efforts. A Panel of Advisers has been set up to guide the Council and the MAECs to more effectively deepen their engagement with residents. Led by Mr Masagos, the Panel of Advisers includes Speaker of Parliament Madam Halimah Yacob, Senior Minister of State, Dr Maliki Osman, A/P Muhammad Faishal Ibrahim, Parliament Secretary, Mr Amrin Amin and Grassroots Adviser Mr Zaqy Mohamad, all of whom will be working with specific groups in the Malay community on areas such as health, education and culture. Youth Engagement – Projek Lentor 4 In its efforts to engage youths, MESRA Youth will launch Projek Lentor. This project focuses on reaching out to youths in five key areas – Community Service, Language, Culture, Career and Health. In the next two years, MESRA Youth targets to reach out to about 8,000 youths through 20 collaborative initiatives with the MAECs as well as Malay Muslim Organisations and community partners. 5 “MESRA Youth hopes that Projek Lentor will be an effective platform to encourage more Malay youths to step forward and contribute to the community through a series of initiatives by youths for youths,” said Mr Muhammad Shukri bin Shuhaimi, MESRA Youth Chairman. Recognition for MAEC Grassroots Leaders 6 DPM Teo will also be presenting the “MAEC 40th Anniversary Recognition Award 2017” to eight outstanding MAEC grassroots leaders for their contributions to the community. 7 Your journalists and photographer/camera crew are cordially invited to attend the MAECs 40th Anniversary Gala Dinner 2017 on Sunday, 30 July 2017, 6.30pm at Orchard Hotel Grand Ballroom, Level 3.

  • Hdb-Heartware-Report.Pdf
    CONTENTS | NEXT PREVIOUS | CONTENTS | NEXT 24 Jul 07 Mr Mah Bow Tan Minister for National Development Dear Minister, In November 2006 you asked me to lead a public consultation exercise to explore how we can better build HDB communities, in response to the challenges of globalisation, changing demographics and increasing expectations among Singaporeans. I launched the Forum on HDB Heartware with a team of Parliamentary colleagues to engage the public on this issue. Our vision was to build a HDB community where residents do not just own their own homes, but also share a collective ownership of the entire community. The Forum has now completed its study after several rounds of discussion with the public, and deliberation with Government agencies. We propose to enrich the character of the HDB Town, enhance the neighbourhood precinct and raise the community involvement of schools. We also feel that it is important to support the family unit within the community, engage residents more and encourage local voluntarism. The Forum is mindful that community building is essentially a ground-up process. Much will depend on the response of residents and the leadership of local institutions such as the grassroots, the schools and the voluntary welfare organisations. Besides policy measures and recommendations relating to facilities and other hardware, the Forum has kick-started a few pilot projects at the local level, and highlighted some existing ones in our Report, with the intention of catalysing similar efforts at community building in other neighbourhoods. The wide-ranging scope of our recommendations is a reflection both of the complexities of community-building and the richness of the public discussions.
