International Migrants Day 2024:

On 15th December 2024, more than 10,000 members of the migrant community attended the International Migrants Day celebration in Jurong Lake Gardens, which featured performances by local and international artistes as well as the finals of a kabaddi tournament. The members also engaged in cultural activities organised by embassies and associations, and received goodie bags sponsored by Sian Chay Medical Institution. ISO Delight Pte Ltd in collaboration with Wilmar International Limited prepared chicken biryani meals for all in attendance during the event.

These celebrations do more than simply acknowledge the important contributions of migrant communities; they serve as powerful reminders of the values of inclusivity and unity that are vital to the fabric of any cohesive society. By embracing and celebrating diverse cultures, traditions, and experiences, these events create spaces where people from all walks of life can come together, learn from one another, and find common ground. Such celebrations help to break down barriers, challenge stereotypes, and promote a sense of belonging for everyone, regardless of their background. Ultimately, they contribute to a society where diversity is not just tolerated, but truly valued and celebrated, fostering mutual respect and understanding.
