Alhamdulillah, it is with great honour to have received the SUSS Spirit Award 2024, along with nine other amazingly passionate students earlier this evening (30 Aug 2024).
The SUSS Spirit Award recognises students who display excellence in either character strength, willingness to help others, and social change leadership. I am humbled to learn that I had met one of these criteria, and to have been nominated for this award — because of the heartwork that I have done for the Ubin Orang Pulau community, among others.
I dedicate this award to my parents, whose values have shaped me to become who I am today. Even more so for my mom, whose love for Ubin knows no bounds and crosses into the next generation; spurring me to protect and preserve the things that are precious to us such as our kampung culture and traditions. I shall continue to dream, dare, and do my best in all that I set my mind, heart and soul into.
