The Maritime Touch Programme is a series of maritime talks conducted by our Maritime Ambassadors, which aim to showcase the diversity of the maritime industry and the wide range of career prospects available for them. The second talk was held at NUS, where Mr Choo Xin Jian from Sembcorp Marine Repairs and Upgrade Pte Ltd was invited to share his maritime journey with a group of engineering students.
The Singapore Maritime Foundation (SMF) was established on 27 January 2004 to facilitate dialogue and cooperation among maritime stakeholders from the public and private sectors. As the bridge between the public and private sectors, SMF aims to provide the industry with a clear and representative voice, and spearhead projects to boost its development.
SMF also organises and participates in a host of maritime events to strengthen the Maritime Singapore brand. To date, SMF has significantly benefitted from strong support from all sectors of the industry which has enabled the organisation to reach out directly to the community for new areas of work to improve the current maritime ecosystem.
