Shawn Wong

Coordinator, Singapore Chinatown Group

As someone passionate about heritage, I found it an interesting and worthwhile opportunity to explore how nostalgia and the loss of heritage affect the well-being of seniors living in Chinatown.

I am an Assistant Librarian with the Collections Management and Preservation team at NUS Libraries. Before joining the Library in 2024, I completed my BA in Southeast Asian Studies and worked at the ISEAS-Yusof Ishak Institute Library. My interests lie in Southeast Asian heritage and history, with a focus on Indonesia, Singapore and Thailand.
