PA offers a wide range of programmes to cater to Singaporeans from all walks of life - connecting people to people, and people and government. They offer community activities to raise the level of understanding amongst neighbours of different races + arts and cultural programmes to showcase and celebrate Singapore’s rich multicultural heritage.
–> The Residents’ Committees (RCs) were introduced in 1978 to promote neighbourliness, racial harmony and community cohesiveness amongst residents within their respective RC zones in Housing and Development Board estates.
