The National Volunteer and Philanthropy Centre (NVPC) has announced significant changes to its Board of Directors, effective 1 October 2025. Suhaimi Zainul-Abidin, a dedicated Board member since 2020, has been appointed as the new Vice Chairman. His extensive experience across various sectors is expected to provide valuable leadership perspectives for NVPC’s long-term goals.
In addition to Suhaimi’s appointment, NVPC has welcomed two new Board members: Ang Shih-Huei, CEO and Co-Founder of H/Advisors Klareco, and Edmund Siah, an Adviser at Egon Zehnder. These appointments are part of NVPC’s strategy to ensure strong governance and introduce fresh perspectives to the organisation.
The outgoing Vice Chairman, Chong Ee Rong, will step down on 30 September 2025, after making significant contributions, including her roles in the Finance and Human Resource Committees. NVPC Chairman Seah Chin Siong expressed gratitude for her leadership and welcomed the new members, stating, “The renewal of our Board reflects NVPC’s commitment to ensuring strong stewardship and access to new ideas and fresh perspectives.”
The new Board members will serve a two-year term, with eligibility for re-appointment every two years, up to a maximum of six consecutive years. This strategic renewal aims to keep NVPC responsive to emerging trends and evolving stakeholder needs, reinforcing its mission to nurture the heart of Singapore.
