The Singapore Prize
The Singapore Prize is a competition to identify and reward excellence in various fields. It aims to promote the arts, education, business and science in Singapore by identifying and rewarding outstanding individuals. It also serves to inspire others to strive for success in their respective fields. The prize money ranges from S$100,000 to S$10,000,000. The winners are chosen by a panel of judges. The prize is awarded every three years.
The winner is determined by a Prize Panel consisting of five (5) judges, which will be appointed by the President of NUS. The criteria and mechanism for selection of a winner in a particular three year cycle will be determined by the judges, and announced together with the closing nomination date at least a year in advance of the prize being awarded.
Athletes who dream of winning a medal in the Olympic Games need to invest a lot of time and money into their training and nutrition. But, despite the large financial commitment required to reach the highest level of competitive sports, only a very small percentage will win a medal at an international competition. To encourage athletes to aim higher, the Singapore National Olympic Council established an incentive scheme in the 1990s, under the direction of its then-President Yeo Ning Hong. The programme gives athletes cash payouts when they win a medal at major international competitions, including the Olympics, Asian and Commonwealth Games.

Britain’s Prince William was in Singapore this week to present the third Earthshot Prize, which honors innovations to protect the environment. He walked the “green carpet” at the first ceremony in Asia, where celebrity guests such as actors Donnie Yen and Nomzano Mbatha joined him to showcase solutions such as solar-powered dryers that tackle food waste and battery-electric cars that emit less carbon dioxide. The prince also met Singaporeans to see how they are working to protect the planet. His visit was part of a larger tour to Asia, Australia and Africa to encourage innovation to combat climate change.
