Celeste Chua, Phase I student from NUS Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine (NUS Medicine), was named one of the three Merit winners of this year’s National Writing Competition. Her heartfelt and articulate piece in response to the theme, “Towards a Sustainable Singapore: How Youth Can Make A Difference” strongly reflects the voices of young people and their critical role in shaping the future.

The competition, organised by the NYAA Council and Singapore Press Holdings Media Group, invited participants to share their ideas on how young people can contribute to a more sustainable lifestyle.
