SCS Patron President 2024

Our Patron: President Tharman Shanmugaratnam

Singapore Cancer Society (SCS) is honoured to have the President of the Republic of Singapore, Mr Tharman Shanmugaratnam, as our Patron.

President Tharman’s support underscores the importance of national and community solidarity in the fight against cancer—the leading cause of death in Singapore. In a recorded message shared on World Cancer Day 2024, he encouraged all Singaporeans to adopt healthy lifestyles and keep up to date with regular cancer screenings.

We are deeply grateful for President Tharman’s patronage as we continue our mission to minimise cancer and maximise lives.
