The Singapore Maritime Foundation (SMF) recently organized the second edition of the SMF City Cycle event at PAssion Wave @ Marina Bay. The event, themed 'Bringing Maritime Singapore Together,' saw participation from 150 maritime stakeholders and MaritimeONE scholars. The initiative aimed to promote industry cohesiveness and invest in future maritime talent. A total of 66 sponsors from the industry and unions contributed S$407,000, which will be used to fund MaritimeONE scholarships and bursaries. The event was flagged off by Mr. Murali Pillai, Senior Minister of State for Law and Transport, alongside SMF Chairman Mr. Hor Weng Yew. The 20-kilometer cycling route showcased Singapore's eastern coastline and anchorage, underscoring the country's status as a global maritime hub.
