As you may know, around this time of the year, all of the Primary 5’s get to go to the NE show for free! Conveniently, this time of the year also marks the start of the NE Shows/NDP rehearsals for August 9th, which is National Day (Akin to 4th of July for the USA). Since there was nothing to do on this particular Sunday, we thought we might as well catch the National Day Rehearsals at MBS.

Hello and welcome to YH’s TIBUT, standing for “Yong Hong’s Things I’ve been up to”!

I will still right independent posts when required, but usually, these will be the posts you will see. I didn’t want every post like this to be named “Photo Collages,” so I created a name for it. Let’s get into it, then.

Hello there! A “not so” while ago, for a program in our school, we got the honor to visit a vertical farm in Singapore called GroGrace, Urban Farming Partners’ first vertical indoor farm in Singapore. We even got a tour by one of the directors Grace Lim (Hence the name.) So, as a subset of our program, I’ll write about it because this is likely the future of farming and we were pretty lucky to see it!

A premier travel destination in Malaysia, Genting Highlands is known for many things. Primarily, it holds the record for the biggest hotel in the world, with a staggering 7351 rooms! It’s been a while since I have been to Genting Highlands, so we decided that in last December, we would take a 4-day, 3-night trip to the so-called “Resort in the Sky.”
