Keechiu is very pleased to meet Tony Blair. 
It was a pleasure meeting Tony Blair, former British Prime Minister, with Vivian Balakrishnan and Edwin Tong this morning, to exchange views on global affairs. Always insightful to understand global and regional developments from different perspectives.

Keechiu shares his big and hairy audacious goals with unsuspecting engineers. 
Our engineers have played an instrumental role in nation-building. From moving various industries up the value chain over the years, to providing the water that we drink and safeguarding the quality of air that we breathe.
In the spirit of challenging our next generation to turn today’s dreams into tomorrow’s realities, I shared three Big Hairy Audacious Goals or BHAGs for our engineers and aspiring ones to consider for the next lap of our nation building:
Creating Spaces - How do we re-imagine our usable and living spaces in the next 50 years, so that we can improve our quality of life, work and play? Not just in terms of expanding absolute space, but also designing and engineering spaces to be multi-functional, flexible and fungible for evolving needs.
Building energy resilience - How can we become less dependent on external supply, more efficient in our usage, more diversified in our sources, and cleaner in our choices? Solving the energy puzzle will in turn solve our water and even food supply challenges. We will also create a greater variety of jobs for our people.
Broadening connectivity - How can we engineer our systems to be better connected to the world, especially through the deep technologies of bio-sciences, advanced manufacturing, data and digital enabled production systems? By entrenching ourselves in the global production and supply chains, we will make sure we do not become easily displaced.
Congratulations to the winners of this year’s national Engineering Innovation Challenge, organised by The Institution of Engineers, Singapore - IES. As aspiring engineers, we hope you will do your part to redefine Singapore’s future for the next 50 years.

Keechiu is impressed by chess robot.
A chess robot designed by Institute of Systems Science, NUS Master of Technology in Intelligent Systems students Yunfeng, Zhaoheng and Zekun, seeks to alleviate the social isolation of senior citizens living alone. Using facial expression recognition, the robot dynamically adjusts the game’s difficulty based on the perceived emotions of the player.
Such endeavours demonstrate the potential of adaptive learning, and how it can create tailored experiences for every user. I enjoyed learning about this and other students’ projects and their real-world applications, at the launch of the new NUS-ISS building.
Specially designed for learning, practice, collaboration and social networking, the building features state-of-the-art technology to reimagine hybrid and blended learning journeys. Had fun exploring their new studio, which creatively uses green screens, cameras and glass whiteboards to deliver interactive and engaging webinars.
A stalwart of digital transformation and capacity building since its formation in 1981, NUS-ISS has established itself as a strong advocate for uplifting the digital competencies of our workforce. The Institute is also expanding its industry collaborations by welcoming nine new partners, to make its programmes more widely accessible and scalable.
I wish NUS-ISS all the best as it continues to blaze new trails in enabling our people and enterprises to be future-ready.

Keechiu introduces a unique approach to education.
A unique approach to education is now in Singapore - no teachers, classes, books or tuition fees. Specialised ICT and soft skills are imparted through gamification, real-world project-based learning, and peer-to-peer learning.
Today, I was pleased to witness the MOU signing between SUTD Singapore University of Technology & Design and École 42 with French Ambassador Marc Abensour, on the collaboration to set up a tuition-free Continuing Education and Training (CET) programme focused on programming.
The very first partnership between École 42 and a Singapore Autonomous University (AU), it has been a couple of years in the making, and will allow us to experience cutting-edge French education in Singapore.
Supported by SkillsFuture SG, the new programme called “42 Singapore”, is a new skills-based pathway for students and mid-career individuals who are keen to pursue a tech career. It will offer online modules in the fields of computer programming, coding, cybersecurity, network infrastructure, data science and more, and will help develop a pipeline of tech talent for the burgeoning digital economy.
Our higher education landscape has greatly diversified over the years with increasingly strong linkages with industry and the private sector. We welcome partners like École 42 to work with and complement our AUs to deliver even better learning outcomes for our students.
Looking forward to the success and scaling up of this partnership between SUTD and École 42!

Keechiu is impressed with Builders Project.
Community partnerships with our schools are important in supporting our students and teachers holistically.
At Builders Connect 2021, organised by the Lutheran Community Care Services (LCCS), participants shared their experiences with LCCS’ Builders Project, which has reached with more than 1200 students and 150 teachers, and 60 parents, across 6 primary schools.
Builders Project helps students and teachers develop, strengthen and restore relationships. Students are encouraged to listen to classmates and show empathy, building a more inclusive and relational school environment where students look out for one another. Teachers are also encouraged to facilitate such conversations with their peers.
These efforts complement the Character and Citizenship curriculum in our schools, and empower students to build positive relationships in their community. By nurturing their resilience and confidence, we hope that students will be better equipped to navigate our complex and ever-changing world.
