Whenever I’m confronted with the inevitable “How old are you?” question, I find myself hesitating to admit that I’m just two years shy of a quarter of a century. However, there’s consolation in the fact that our gahmen still considers anyone between the ages of 15-35 youths.
In celebration of Youth Month this year, the National Youth Council (NYC) has partnered with brands like Soi 55 and New Balance to bring us a range of exclusive deals and discounts. So for all of us promo-loving Singaporeans whose ears instinctively twitch at the mention of “discount”, here are some noteworthy lobangs for the month of July:
