251 In a move that honours the legacy of Singapore’s founding father, Lee Kuan Yew, the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) has announced a unique opportunity for the public to acquire the 100th Birth Anniversary of Lee Kuan Yew (LKY100) coins. This initiative, designed to celebrate the centennial milestone of Lee Kuan Yew’s birth, offers individuals a chance to be part of a historic commemoration. Running from December 4 to December 31, 2023, the walk-in exchange program caters to those who may not have applied online earlier or wish to expand their collection of LKY100 coins. With more than 700,000 coins available for exchange, the MAS has enlisted the support of 142 participating bank branches to facilitate this process. To streamline the exchange, members of the public are required to bring their NRIC, passport, or work pass for verification. Unlike online applications, there is no restriction on the number of coins individuals can exchange, provided that there is sufficient stock at each bank branch. For those who applied for the coins in advance but have not collected them, MAS urges prompt retrieval at their designated bank branch by December 3, 2023. Following this deadline, any remaining or uncollected coins will be made available for the walk-in exchange from December 4 to December 31, 2023. This initiative not only signifies a unique opportunity for individuals to acquire a piece of Singapore’s history but also reinforces the nation’s commitment to preserving and honouring the memory of Lee Kuan Yew. As the coins circulate, they serve as a tangible representation of the enduring impact of a visionary leader on the nation’s development and success. The MAS walk-in exchange aligns with Singapore’s ethos of inclusivity, allowing citizens to actively participate in the celebration of a pivotal figure in the country’s history.
