Background
Great value is often associated with a clean city. A clean city is a strong reflection of our moral and civic values. But clean cities do not just come by chance. They require much responsibility and dedication to maintain.
The development of our public health system over the years has contributed much to Singapore’s status as a ‘clean and green’ city. However, public education remains a crucial aspect in the sustainability of a clean environment. The challenge is not only for every Singaporean to understand the importance of taking responsibility of their litter and the environment, but also to ‘walk the talk’.
The National Environment Agency (NEA), the Photographic Society of National University of Singapore(NUSPS) and the National Youth Achievement Council (NYAA) Council are jointly organising a photography competition. This competition aims to showcase the clean and green scenery in Singapore, the on-going public education effort in keeping Singapore clean as well as remind the public that we have to do our part to maintain this image.
