SINGAPORE — When the Covid-19 pandemic struck in 2020, the Youth Corps Singapore had to quickly move the programmes they organised for children, youths and the elderly online.
That was when they realised they had one major stumbling block: Some of their beneficiaries did not have computers or internet access.
“It wasn’t easy as we are not used to conducting programmes online… we had to learn how to keep them engaged and actively moving so they won’t get bored,” recalled Ms Chua. They include Professor Kenneth Mak, director-general of health at the Ministry of Health, and Mr Pang Kin Keong, permanent secretary for the Ministry of Home Affairs, who were both awarded the Meritorious Service Medal.
Among the initiatives they came up with was a music video titled Get Your Shot, Steady Pom Pi Pi, featuring Gurmit Singh as Phua Chu Kang.“Leading up to the release of the video, my team and I were nervous,” said the 36-year-old assistant director at the Public Communications Division of the Ministry of Communications and Information.
The video also gained traction internationally, with media outlets like The New York Times and BBC World News featuring it.
