Being Schooled On Roads

Tagged along a group of promising students from Hwa Chong Institution (HCI) to visit Samwoh Group, a well-known name in civil engineering and infrastructure construction. Many roads that we ride on, including the Marina Coastal Expressway (Singapore’s costliest) and the F1 circuit, were built by Samwoh. We never knew so much science goes into paving roads as we were brought around the research centre and spoke to senior management.

This is a meaningful programme initiated by finance professionals who hailed from HCI. It aims to expose students to different sectors and possibly explore roads less travelled.
