As part of the Explore Singapore! Campaign, the Centre had arranged an activities-filled day of fun and learning for the whole family to enjoy. Free shuttle bus service was made available from Outram Park MRT station and Jurong East MRT station.

Organised by Chinese Heritage Centre, National Library Board and Hok Tek Chi Loke Yah Teng Association, the speaker of the event was Professor Zeng Lin of Xiamen University. The series was on sale at a very special price during the launch.

Chinese Heritage Centre and Singapore Chinese Chamber of Commerce & Industry have invited distinguished scholars from Singapore and around the region to examine the cultural and social changes of Southeast Asian Chinese in this globalizing era. The symposium was divided into two main segments, consisting of a series of lectures and a discussion panel. Lectures presented covered topics such as the current situation, the impact of New Migrants on the regional culture, influences of globalization on Malaysian Chinese Culture, and the spread of Islam among Southeast Asia ’s Chinese. The peaceful rise of China as an economic power impacted Chinese education in the region. This was examined through an interactive format in the second segment. This interactive format allowed us to examine the situations of Indonesia , Malaysia , the Philippines and Singapore in greater details. Distinguished educationists from these areas gave a brief introduction of their country before engaging the audiences with the discussions.

The Chinese Heritage Centre and the Sun Yat Sen Nanyang Memorial Hall held a bilingual international seminar on 12 June 2006 with the following theme: “Tongmenghui, Sun Yat Sen and the Chinese in Southeast Asia: A Revisit.” We had invited leading experts on Tongmenghui and Sun Yat Sen from Mainland China, Taiwan and the Southeast Asian region. The Seminar was graced by Guest-of-Honour Dr Lien Chan, Kuomintang Honorary Chairman.

The Opening Ceremony of Chinese Heritage Centre’s New Exhibition, Chinese More or Less: An Exhibition on Overseas Chinese Identity was officiated by Mr George Yeo, Minister for Foreign Affairs who had officially opened Chinese Heritage Centre as Minister for Information and the Arts on 17 May 1995 , ten years ago. The event was graced by business and clan association leaders and diplomatic dignitaries.

Chinese Heritage Centre’s 10 th Anniversary Fundraising Dinner was
held in the evening at Orchard Hotel. The Guest of Honour was Minister Mentor Lee Kuan Yew. One million dollar was raised through the sales of donation tables and the auctioning of an unique timepiece donated by Jaeger-LeCoultre commemorating the 40th year of independence of Singapore .

The Journal of Chinese Overseas was successfully launched by the Centre in May 2005 and subsequently accepted into Project MUSE® . Launched in 1995 by the Johns Hopkins University Press in collaboration
with the Milton S. Eisenhower Library at Johns Hopkins University , Project MUSE® is setting the standards for scholarly electronic journals in the humanities and social sciences. Project MUSE® offers nearly 250 quality journal titles from 40 scholarly publishers and is one of the academic community's primary electronic journals resources.

Cash Donations are very welcome as the Centre depends on the generosity of patrons around the world to fund future projects. As Chinese Heritage Centre is an Institute of Public Character , all donations will enjoy double
tax deduction.

We also welcome donation of books and other historical documents and artefacts.
