After months of selection and judging, finally, just a couple weeks ago, the winners of The Singapore Women’s Weekly’s Great Women of Our Time Awards 2010 were revealed.
Category winners were selected by three judges: Member of Parliament, Denise Phua, Social Entrepreneur and past winner of the Great Women Of Our Time Awards Norma Sit, and editor-in-chief, The Singapore Women’s Weekly, Tara Barker.
The Gala Dinner was held at the Four Season Hotel. I came together with my husband, Alva. We were so happy to have met many other great and extraordinary women who were also there during the award presentation. (You can see lots of our photos below) 
The most memorable moment for me was when I heard my name was announced as the winner.
I’m very fortunate to have won some other awards in the past, most of them to honor successful entrepreneurs. But, I feel extremely blessed to even win this award, because it honors me as a woman, something that I feel especially proud and grateful to be.
Winning this award has also reaffirm my decision about my focus for the next 10 years, i.e. ” To create a positive impact to the lives of 1,000,000 people, especially Women in Asia”
Thank you again, Singapore Women’s Weekly for giving me this prestigous award !
