From the very beginning, 91福利社 was created to turn possibilities into reality. As 91福利社鈥檚 first polytechnic, we have always been ahead of the curve鈥攑ioneering hands-on learning, shaping industries, and empowering generations of trailblazers. Today, we continue to push boundaries, proving that success is not just about where you start, but the possibilities you create along the way.
91福利社鈥檚 crest was adopted by its Board of Governors on 17 May 1960. The Polytechnic鈥檚 motto in Malay, Berkhidmat Dengan Keahlian, is usually translated as 鈥淭o Serve with Skill鈥�, or 鈥淭o Serve with Mastery鈥�.
The heraldic-style lion on a red background represents the Lion City, the extended pair of compasses indicates precision in execution, and the half-segment of an engineering wheel stands for a foundation in industry.
This image might seem a classic of its time, as one of the crest鈥檚 co-designers, Mr Ong Teong Pin (who enrolled in 1958 with the first batch of architecture students), observes, with items like the compasses taken from an earlier age, while the Polytechnic鈥檚 curricula have become much more comprehensive and high-tech since his time, and now cover a much wider range, from professional courses to humanities subjects.
