International Seafarers' Welfare and Assistance Network (ISWAN)

Ms Tan Beng Tee, Assistant Chief Executive (Development) received the award on MPA’s behalf
The Port of Singapore was named Port of the Year at the ISWAN Awards ceremony held as part of London International Shipping Week. MPA works closely with partners in welfare services to ensure seafarers can maximise their time in port, including jointly developing an on-demand bus service. MPA organises learning tours to offer seafarers with limited time the chance to visit places of interest in Singapore and provides 24/7 medical advice and evacuation for seafarers requiring immediate attention.
