Lee Hsien Loong Instagram – Had an engaging session with youths at the HarmonyWorks! Conference this morning.
Organised annually by @onepeople.sg, the conference gives youths a platform to speak their thoughts and gather insights on issues related to race and religion. This yearās conference focussed on three main areas ā social harmony, race and religious relations in the online space, and issues involving locals and new migrants.
As a small country, Singapore has to remain open and connected to the world, but this also means that Singaporeans are constantly exposed to external events and developments that can trigger racial and religious tensions in our society. Dialogues like these help us to understand the impact of external events on our society, and the hard work it takes to maintain racial and religious harmony in Singapore.
I appreciate the honest and candid thoughts shared by the attendees. It is heartening to see todayās youths wanting to play an active part in shaping our future. I hope you remain courageous and confident as you navigate future challenges. You can watch the dialogue here: go.gov.sg/lhl-harmonyworks-2024 ā LHL
