Sharing by Singapore Environment Institute

Presentation on Semakau Landfill


At Semakau Landfill

"The inaugural sharing session was relevant and beneficial and I'm glad to have expanded my network of friends in the process. It captures the essence of how Singapore transformed herself over the decades to be a clean and green city that everyone envies today. More importantly, it provides a snapshot of the future initiatives that Singapore is embarking on and creates a greater awareness of how we can play our part to contribute to a greener and more environmentally sustainable society. The field visit to Semakau Landfill left me with an indelible impression and drums home the importance of the 3 Rs (Reduce, Reuse and Recycle). I'll certainly share the knowledge gained with my colleagues so that more people are aware of the importance of environmental protection".

"The sharing session by Nanyang Polytechnic (NYP) was a very fruitful one. It's interesting to know what NYP went through all these years and the hard work they have put in to achieve their goals. The presentations and guided tours around the schools show how NYP is able to think out of the box and have an open mind to new ideas. This is definitely something that we can learn from".
