RECORDING THE NATION’S DIVERSE ACHIEVEMENTS

In 50 short years, Singapore has turned many of its aspirations into reality. As part of SG50, the World Scientific Publishing Company commissioned a multi-volume book series to document stories on important aspects of our country’s development. MDA supported the funding of 25 books in the series, titled Singapore’s 50 Years of Nation Building.

The series captures the voices of pioneers, experts, scholars and politicians on topics like urban planning, real estate, environment, defence, healthcare, transportation and women. Three Chinese books on literature and culture were also published. The titles are available on hard cover, soft cover, e-books, and mobile formats.
