Thanks to Defence Collective Singapore for inviting me to speak at Temasek Polytechnic’s Temasek Lead Summit along with my fellow panelists Jonathan Hung and Brandon Lee and moderator Amelia Marican - Inspiring Youths. The Topic is "To be Future-Ready in a Beyond-AI World"

A topic close to the heart. I am very grateful for this opportunity.

For the past year, I immersed myself in the world of AI, exploring the leading tools from the US and China—their breathtaking potential and their very human limitations.

Today, I passed that torch.

I transferred not just a year of research, but two decades of media experience to an incredible group of students. They aren't just tech experts; they are homemakers, healthcare heroes, banker, admin staff, real estate agent, retirees, social worker, poly lecturer etc. . Many are embarking on a new chapter after 40.

Seeing their final projects—proof of their courage and newfound skills—moved me deeply. We are at a historic turning point, and I am in awe. A new generation of talent, from all walks of life, is rising to meet the future, and it is a beautiful thing to witness.

I am running one last batch for the year and we are left with 9 seats. If the schedule below interest you, connect to us at https://forms.gle/Us4tK7XEJfVNjRmN8

AI + Microdrama: The Future of Filmmaking in Singapore

🎬 Conference + Hands-on Workshop
1-Hour Lecture + 3-Hour Practical Session

The Singapore film industry is full of passion and talent—but we know the challenges are real:

❌ High Budgets Needed: Sci-Fi, Action, Horror, or Period Dramas often remain out of reach due to costly sets, costumes, and effects.

❌ Space & Resources: No room to build large-scale sets, and no budget to create them.

❌ Crowds & VFX: Imagine needing an army of thousands or a futuristic city—almost impossible without Hollywood-level funding.

❌ Limited Opportunities for Actors: Many talents face career ceilings by their mid-30s, unless they head overseas.

❌ Barriers to Entry: Becoming a director or actor feels reserved for the “lucky few” with money, connections, or both.

❌ Distribution & Audience Reach: Even if you finish your film, breaking into the market feels like a closed VIP club.

✨ But what if there’s another way?

AI + Microdrama = A New Gateway

If you are new to AI, you are still studying or you are a fresh graduate. This FREE workshop is for you.

Register now. We only have 50 seats. Need to bring your own Laptop.

AI tech these days are renewing itself almost every week. Used to be every 3 months. Things are moving so fast. Before we know, whatever we learnt in school is obsolete.

The Sponsored Conference are meant to help especially youth who are still in school and also those just graduated. And those finishing NS. So that they get updated what is out there.

The Talk.

Kids in China are learning AI at age 6.
Starting this September 2025, China is making AI education mandatory for every student, even first graders. That means children as young as six years old will now take classes on artificial intelligence. Here’s how it works: the new policy requires at least 8 hours of AI lessons per year, built directly into the national curriculum.

Our first batch of ONLINE AI class went really well. Glad everyone was having fun. Among the students, we have a good mix people from all kinds of backgrounds. CEO of animation company, Animation Supervisors, Poly Animation Lecturers, Graphic Designers, Film Directors, Bankers etc. This is a exciting process of building new talents for the future. We will also educate the students on the latest trends and needs which they can apply to various industries. The techniques used will be 5 to 10 times faster than traditional methods. More than 50% cheaper. Thank you ITE and Skillsfuture for this great support.
