Transport Advocacy in Singapore and Indonesia 🚲🚌🚃

I had the privilege of sharing my experience of transport advocacy in Singapore at Transport for Jakarta's event: "From Jakarta to the World, How Jakarta Inspires Others for Change?" at Museum Bank Indonesia, Kota Tua, Jakarta on 22 June 2025.

My sharing includes the journey of YouTube content creation to co-forming groups (Safety for Active Mobility Users), organising street redesign workshops with Singapore Youth for Climate Action, and bringing people out on two wheels (Bike Commute Singapore). Advocacy and activism has been such a wild rollercoaster ride and I'm so happy to be able to meet passionate individuals across Southeast Asia!

To each and every transport advocate and activist I met, thank you for sharing your zest and passion with everyone. To every individual who has supported me along the way, thank you for cheering me on.

Choosing the route of advocacy is like carving a desire path through tall grass. It is the hardest at the beginning, and the more people join along, the better it gets for everyone.

There's so much more I wish to share - so come read my Substack article at:

Huge thanks to Transport for Jakarta (FDTJ) for organising the event and many other passionate souls I've met for making advocacy oh so beautiful.
Terima kasih dan sampai jumpa!
