  • Speech by Dr Lee Boon Yang, Chairman, Sph and Sph
    SPEECH BY DR LEE BOON YANG, CHAIRMAN, SPH AND SPH FOUNDATION AT THE SPH AND SPH FOUNDATION SCHOLARSHIP AWARDS CEREMONY 2018 HELD ON MONDAY, 16 JULY 2018 AT 3.00 PM AT THE SPH NEWS CENTRE AUDITORIUM Ladies and Gentlemen A very good afternoon to all. Welcome to the annual SPH and SPH Foundation Scholarship Awards Ceremony 2018. Let me begin by congratulating all scholarship recipients. This year, we have 4 journalism scholars. We will also be presenting 14 scholarships to the children of SPH staff and newspaper vendors, as well as 11 Lim Kim San Memorial Scholarships. I would like to congratulate the proud parents, family members and loved ones who are here today. Quality journalism and transformation are key The global media industry continues to face volatility and disruption. Today, platforms such as Facebook and Google are changing the way people access the news. The emergence of new technologies driven by powerful algorithms, artificial intelligence and data analytics are shaping the types of content that gets wider circulation. 1 We have also experienced the emergence of fake news. This is in part owing to deceptive advertising, deliberate falsehoods or lack of fact-checking arising from unprofessional journalism. Faced with such volatility and challenges, journalists have a more important role to restore trust and confidence in media companies. Journalists should always ensure accurate and objective presentation and delivery of news that readers would want to turn to, and can rely on. SPH will always uphold the highest standard of quality journalism. At the same time, we will also continue to innovate and transform our business operations.

  • Kodrah Kristang: the Initiative to Revitalize the Kristang Language in Singapore
    Language Documentation & Conservation Special Publication No. 19 Documentation and Maintenance of Contact Languages from South Asia to East Asia ed. by Mário Pinharanda-Nunes & Hugo C. Cardoso, pp.35–121 http:/nflrc.hawaii.edu/ldc/sp19 2 http://hdl.handle.net/10125/24906 Kodrah Kristang: The initiative to revitalize the Kristang language in Singapore Kevin Martens Wong National University of Singapore Abstract Kristang is the critically endangered heritage language of the Portuguese-Eurasian community in Singapore and the wider Malayan region, and is spoken by an estimated less than 100 fluent speakers in Singapore. In Singapore, especially, up to 2015, there was almost no known documentation of Kristang, and a declining awareness of its existence, even among the Portuguese-Eurasian community. However, efforts to revitalize Kristang in Singapore under the auspices of the community-based non-profit, multiracial and intergenerational Kodrah Kristang (‘Awaken, Kristang’) initiative since March 2016 appear to have successfully reinvigorated community and public interest in the language; more than 400 individuals, including heritage speakers, children and many people outside the Portuguese-Eurasian community, have joined ongoing free Kodrah Kristang classes, while another 1,400 participated in the inaugural Kristang Language Festival in May 2017, including Singapore’s Deputy Prime Minister and the Portuguese Ambassador to Singapore. Unique features of the initiative include the initiative and its associated Portuguese-Eurasian community being situated in the highly urbanized setting of Singapore, a relatively low reliance on financial support, visible, if cautious positive interest from the Singapore state, a multiracial orientation and set of aims that embrace and move beyond the language’s original community of mainly Portuguese-Eurasian speakers, and, by design, a multiracial youth-led core team.

I know all of you feel honoured as I do, because we have with us tonight President Tony Tan, Emeritus Senior Minister Goh Chok Tong, Dr Lee Boon Yang, Mr Lui Tuck Yew, previous Ministers for Defence; as well as previous Permanent Secretaries, among them Mr Lim Siong Guan and Mr Chiang Chie Foo, who oversaw the development of this community, the DTC. I look forward to President Tony Tan's speech wherein the achievements of the DTC will be recounted. We are all very proud of the achievements of the DTC, which give us an assurance of a secure future. These achievements were only possible because of the collective efforts of the entire MINDEF and the SAF family. Individually each of you played a role in your unit, whether it was in the Army, Navy, or Airforce, Defence Science and Technology Agency (DSTA) or DSO, whether it was in technical vocations as well as combat, to make that extra effort to push our defence capabilities forward. Tonight, it is both somewhat formal, somewhat informal - it is a meeting of old friends.

His interest in maths and logic drew him to numerical computation and computational finance. Now he creates financial solutions for DBS’ Financial Institutions Group and oversees negotiations between clients and internal stakeholders to produce bespoke solutions. “I’m a middle child and the middle child is good at trying to get two parties to compromise,” says the 2017 Asian Banker Promising Young Banker in Singapore award winner. Ng was inspired to join the industry by the energy of the trading floor he witnessed during an internship at DBS in his university days. But the financial crisis of 2007 and 2008 gave him pause. “The challenge was existential,” he recounts. “Amid all the losses suffered by investors and collapses of large financial institutions and sovereign, I was grappling with the question of whether banks added value to society.” Things have picked up since.
