The article “Parliament: Singapore looks to create Newoil by transforming waste plastic into alternative fuel” by Vanessa Liu (2020), illustrates future and existing recycling plans for Singapore. As stated, Newoil is a process in which plastic waste is chemically reduced into pyrolysis oil, resulting in less petroleum consumption which sequentially helps us achieve sustainability demands. Currently, National Environment Agency (NEA) has reimbursed money to citizens for recycling beverage containers to encourage Singaporeans to recycle. In July, NEA keeps records of the amount of packaging used to help them reduce packaging waste. NEA also introduced Newsand, a project used to incinerate general waste to form ash and slag and then reusing it for construction. Additionally, e-waste is a rising factor in the economy. By 2022, Singapore will have three operational facilities that can undertake more than 50,000 tonnes of e-waste annually. Another factor lies in large areas of food enterpri

Hence, it is very important for employees and

“Communication skills are an essential component in the education of engineering students to facilitate not just students’ education but also to prepare them for their future careers.” -Marc Riemer, Faculty of Engineering, Monash University (2007) As an engineering student, it is important to grasp the basic knowledge of communication skills. We communicate in our daily life, however there are times when people do not understand what we are saying. By being more fluent in the intricacies of our communication skills, only then will we be able to play our part by being able to effectively communicate with each other.
