Last Friday evening, members of the Workers’ Party Youth Wing (WPYW) were out and about reaching out to young Singaporeans. With the party’s newsletter, The Hammer, and publicity materials for the youth wing’s next activity, a Christmas Party at a home for the intellectually disabled in tow, youth wing members fanned out across Dhoby Ghaut.
Youth Hammer was an excellent opportunity for youth wing members to create greater awareness of the political context in Singapore. Many stopped by to ask questions and youth wing members were on hand to answer their questions, though with some trepidation at the first time of asking.
It was a great learning experience for many of the new and young activists. And it was encouraging to see the synergy on display. The responses from young Singaporeans were very encouraging and many left their email and contact details behind, indicating their interest to be updated on future youth wing activities.
If you are interested to sign up as a volunteer for our next community event on 7 December 2014 (pre-registration is required due to security requirements at the home we are visiting), do email Allan Goh at allan.goh@wp.sg.
We look forward to hearing and learning from you. Don’t shy away from the blues and we will see you soon!
