Keechiu has high hopes for his daughter. 
Like all parents, I want Singapore to be a place where my daughter can achieve whatever she sets her mind to, and has the opportunities to work hard and become the person she aspires to be.
The White Paper on Singapore Women’s Development outlines five areas for 25 Action Plans:
Equal opportunities at the workplace
Recognition and support for caregivers
Protection against violence and harm
Other support measures for women
Mindset shifts
Sun Xueling shared Ministry of Education, Singapore’s efforts in empowering our female students in Parliament today -- throughout the journey from preschool to tertiary education, our students are taught the importance of respect, appropriate behaviour, the importance of feeling safe, and the protection afforded to them by the law.
We also address gender stereotypes in our curriculum. This includes highlighting women’s experiences, contributions and achievements in school materials alongside those of their male counterparts. Our refreshed Character and Citizenship Education (CCE) curriculum has Family Education as a key content area, with students learning to appreciate that family members can play different roles regardless of gender and the importance of shared parental responsibilities.
Fundamentally, all of us have a role to play in further advancing Singapore women’s development – let us treat women with respect, accord them with dignity, and support them to thrive in all areas of their lives.

Keechiu could feel the excitement. 
I could feel the palpable excitement at the Sports Hall as our student athletes filed in for the Opening Ceremony of the National School Games (NSG).
With the resumption of NSG in full format for the first time since the start of #COVID19, about 60,000 athletes from 300 schools will compete in 29 sports from April to August!
I am proud that despite the challenges of the pandemic, our athletes have remained undaunted. Greendale Secondary School’s Abigail put in extra hours in training which allowed her to achieve a personal breakthrough last year at various competitions in fencing. Aniq from Hwa Chong Institution has also put in tremendous effort to improve his performance in volleyball by adapting his training.
To all who are participating in the NSG, let us remember the spirit of sportsmanship, respect and resilience as you put forth your best effort in the competition.
We recognise that your peers have played important roles in your journey as athletes. Ministry of Education, Singapore will look at allowing in-person student spectators at some NSG games in a few weeks’ time — for you to celebrate your achievements together with teammates and friends. More details will be shared with your schools.
All the very best for the Games!

Keechiu congratulates SUTD Class of 2021. 
91% of SUTD Singapore University of Technology & Design graduates found full-time employment within 6 months of graduation.
Well done Class of 2021!
The strong demand for SUTD’s students affirms the effectiveness of the university’s interdisciplinary and design-centric education.
Chloe Tan who majored in aviation experienced this firsthand. In addition to the knowledge gained from taking aviation modules, creating a software platform to automate auditing processes during her Capstone project provided her the relevant skills needed in her role as a Ground Experience Development Executive at Singapore Airlines.
Our education system must continue to be well-rounded, forward-thinking and industry relevant so that our students are well-equipped to excel in the workforce, and embrace #LifelongLearning.
May our graduates continue to soar and fulfill their career aspirations. Onwards and upwards!

Keechiu thanks workers.
At Tanjong Pagar Town Council virtual breaking of fast this evening with our conservancy workers, we thank them for their tireless work to keep our estates clean.
Many residents came forward with letters of support and gratitude to our workers when they heard that some of them would be returning home soon, having served many years in Buona Vista. They have been like family to all of us.

Keechiu wants to prepare students for the school of life. 
Are we preparing our students for life in school, or the school of life?
Are we getting them to learn yesterday’s solutions to solve today’s challenges?
Or nurturing their passions, interests and ingenuity to help them uncover tomorrow’s solutions for the challenges of the future?
From MOE for schools, to MOE for life – how are we enabling all Singaporeans to fulfil their potential at all stages of their lives?
How do we leverage Singapore’s multilingual and multicultural advantage to go beyond a bilateral bridge between countries and cultures, to a multilateral platform that facilitates regional and global cooperation?
Enjoyed sharing these important pivots in our approach to education with Jiemei, Xiangyu and Li Kang from Lianhe Zaobao 联合早报
放眼长期的“人生学堂”而不是短期的“学堂人生”。Ministry of Education, Singapore 如何鼓励国人在人生长跑中以超越自我的心态不断地学习，而不是为考试而学习？
教育的重点是传授昨日的知识来解决今日的问题，还是发掘学生的潜力通过创新和突破解决明日的问题？
我们如何帮助国人在人生的每一个阶段都有机会充分发挥潜能，追求教育和职业的理想?
新加坡应该如何发挥多语多文化的优势，从双向的桥梁角色发展为促进合作的多向平台，在全球化社会凸显增值点?
感谢洁梅、翔宇和黎康的采访，让我畅谈针对教育制度发展三个须改变的理念。

Keechiu is thankful.
A community of helping hands coming together to spread some festive cheer for our residents.
Thankful to all our partners, grassroots leaders and volunteers for joining us in this journey to build our home in My Buona Vista, and for always looking out for one another.

Keechiu impressed by students rollerblading.
The Pri 3 students skilfully whizzed past me on their rollerblades – gradually picking up speed but fully in control. It was hard to believe that they had only just started picking up the sport!
I observed some students momentarily losing balance on their bicycles and roller blades, only to swiftly recover by varying angles or working out different manoeuvres. It was rather amazing how quickly they figured things out for themselves, and were self-motivated to try, and try again.
Most importantly, they were clearly having lots of fun
Mastering skills both within and beyond the classroom is fundamental to the holistic education of our children, and building up their confidence.
Kudos to the wonderful educators at First Toa Payoh Primary School for exposing our young students to a broad array of outdoor activities and sports, appealing to their interests, and instilling values that will serve them well for life.

He sounds slightly disappointed.
Congratulations to Lawrence Wong! Am glad the team has come to a decision on the succession.
Lawrence and I entered politics together in 2011. I deeply appreciate the camaraderie that we have shared over the years and look forward to continue working closely with him and the team to tackle the challenges and seize the opportunities ahead of us.
While Singapore is cautiously emerging from the worst of the pandemic, there remain many geopolitical and economic uncertainties and social challenges that we have to overcome together. The 4G team will continue to work closely together with Singaporeans to improve their lives while seizing opportunities to leave behind a better Singapore for future generations.
