SINGAPORE – How should a new citizen of Singapore behave? What values, norms and rights should they uphold? What are some of their obligations to the city and their fellow Singaporeans?
Singaporeans will be able to weigh in and shape the mandatory curriculum which new citizens undergo before becoming full-fledged members of Singaporean society.
On Thursday (Jan 16), the Ministry of Culture, Community and Youth (MCCY) launched a recruitment drive for 100 Singaporeans to form a workgroup to give input on the Singapore Citizenship Journey programme. Singaporeans can apply online to be part of the workgroup from now till Feb 21.
MCCY said the workgroup will be diverse and reflective of Singapore society.
While the authorities have taken in feedback from the public over the years, the workgroup is the first of its kind.
Initially introduced in 2011, the Singapore Citizenship Journey is designed to deepen understanding of Singapore’s history and culture via interactive online modules on topics such as the country’s history and culture, national symbols and national policies, and experiential learning programmes such as visits to museums.
