Singapore's PGJC calls for Malay Muslim pioneers to share stories for a commemmorative book

As Singapore celebrates its Golden Jubilee, the Pioneer Generation Joint Committee (PGJC), chaired by Speaker of Parliament Madam Halimah Yacob, will honour the contributions of our Malay-Muslim pioneers towards nation building through a commemorative book and exhibition. 

The committee will feature 50 Malay/Muslim first-generation Singaporeans in the book, focusing on stories of hope, struggle and aspirations of the Singapore’s Malay/Muslim pioneers. 

The PGJC invites members of the Malay/Muslim community to nominate deserving pioneers from all backgrounds to share their stories and to have these stories chronicled in the commemorative book. Nominations are open to all pioneers who are still living or who may have passed on and can be made until 15 May 2015, here
