Minister for Education, Mr Ong Ye Kung graced the event and commented that it is good to train students in finance management as it will help them when they enter the working world, as well as help to share it with their families and friends. SP Diploma in Business Information Technology student, Chew Woon Hong, who took part in a financial literacy programme shared how the programme taught him to distinguish between a need and a want.
