Malaysia, Singapore To Boost Regional Youth Volunteerism, Unity
KUALA LUMPUR, June 26 (Bernama) -- Malaysia and Singapore plan to strengthen regional cooperation to advance youth volunteerism and promote cross-border unity, said National Unity Minister Datuk Aaron Ago Dagang.
In a Facebook post today, he said the matter was discussed during his courtesy visit to Singapore's Acting Minister for Culture, Community and Youth, David Neo.
"The discussion included a proposal to establish a volunteer exchange programme and develop a collaborative network between youth volunteer organisations from both countries," he said.
Aaron also highlighted initiatives under the Ministry of National Unity, including the role of Yayasan Sukarelawan Siswa (YSS), which actively implements Sukarelawan Siswa MADANI Berkhidmat missions both locally and abroad.
He said these efforts reflect Malaysia's commitment to shaping resilient, united and globally minded youth.
Aaron is in Singapore at the invitation of the Ministry of Culture, Community and Youth to attend the Third International Conference on Cohesive Societies (ICCS) 2025, which began on Tuesday
