In celebration of this dual golden anniversary, ICOMOS Singapore joins the National Museum of Singapore, and the National Heritage Board in celebrating World Heritage Day with a symposium on heritage in Singapore. Themed and titled ‘Heritage in Singapore: Saving History to Build a Nation’, the conference brought together Singapore’s leading practitioners in the heritage scene, drawing from both ICOMOS members and colleagues from the National Heritage Board, Urban Redevelopment Authority and the Institute of Southeast Asian Studies.
