ANNUAL
REPORT
2016/17
As SLA moves beyond from our 15th anniversary, we look back upon 15 years of serving Singapore and shaping the nation’s landscape. While SLA has made advances in innovation, framework development and operational progress, we recognise that these achievements would not have been possible without our people. This year, we celebrate the dedication of our officers at SLA who have reflected our vision, spirit and future-readiness. These are their stories, as much as they are ours.
