Beacon Scholarship

Congratulations to all scholarship recipients! Watch this page for more photos on the MOT Beacon Scholarship Award Ceremony.

Minister for Transport Mr Lui Tuck Yew had awarded 18 undergraduate and 3 postgraduate scholars with the MOT Family Scholarship this evening.

Named the “Beacon Scholarship”, the MOT Family Scholarship is an umbrella talent development programme for the MOT agencies - Civil Aviation Authority of Singapore (CAAS), the Land Transport Authority (LTA) and the Maritime and Port Authority of Singapore (MPA).

Bensen Koh was awarded the Beacon Scholarship in 2010 and had joined CAAS in May this year after his graduation. Currently, he handles projects that are related to geopolitics such as looking into how developments around the world will change the future through scenario planning, and what measures Singapore could take to maintain its air hub status.
