From this rather hazy photo, you can make out Lee Kuan Yew graduating from Cambridge. Perhaps this could be a reality for another outstanding Singaporean. The OCSS is proud to pass on this message from The Public Service Commission:
We are looking for outstanding Singaporeans for the 2022 Lee Kuan Yew Scholarship. Applications will open from 1 November 2021 to 10 January 2022.
Eligibility
Applicants, who must be Singapore citizens, will be assessed holistically. This includes their track record of leadership and service (e.g. volunteer and community work, contributions to cultural, scientific and/or academic communities etc.) as well as academic and professional achievements.
Terms and Conditions
Lee Kuan Yew Scholarship recipients can pursue postgraduate studies overseas or locally to develop their potential as leaders in their respective fields. There are no restrictions on the course of study. Applicants should have at least two academic terms of study remaining at the point of application.
This scholarship does not carry any bond.
Scholarship recipients will receive an annual allowance of S$50,000 for up to 2 years if they are pursuing a Master’s degree or up to 5 years for PhD studies. This is with the exception of public sector awardees who are already sponsored by their agencies for their postgraduate studies. These public sector awardees will receive a one-off sum of S$10,000.
