'Education is a lifelong passport', says TikTok CEO as he recounts his school days in Singapore

“Education is a lifelong passport. It keeps redrawing the borders of your world,” said TikTok CEO Chew Shou Zi, as he reminisced about his school life in Singapore, travelling from Yio Chu Kang to attend school at Hwa Chong Institution in Bukit Timah.

Speaking at the NTU Singapore PhD Conferment Ceremony on Saturday (Aug 1), Mr Chew urged graduates with specialised academic experience to stay curious, and protect their creativity and joy as they step into the uncharted AI era. #singapore #sgnews #tiktok #ntu #graduation
