Attending Moot Parliament Programme 2024
In the first half of 2024, I was given the opportunity to participate in an MOE Gifted Education Branch (GEB) Special Program, the Moot Parliament Programme. In this prestigious programme, I was provided with a 6-month mentorship attachment that offers insights into how public policies are passed in Singapore and how to craft legislative bills under the guidance of expert mentors from the legal profession. Throughout MPP, I served as the ACS(I) Team 1 Leader and led my group in drafting the “Public Order (Amendment) Act”.
Looking back on the programme, I have truly gained valuable insights regarding how the Singapore parliamentary system functions. At the same time, interacting with both like-minded peers and experienced lawyers provides me with a diverse range of perspectives on the process of crafting a legislative bill.
