 promoting about co-op this month, so I went to find out more and sign up for this ! Now I'm a member of ntuc co-op, aupe co-op and now tcc co-op !! 😁 For those members who earn "average" salary may find it easier to borrow from them compared to large commercial banks. #sncfsg #thatsacoop #contest #cooperatives #gocoop #coops4dev #coopyouth |

 I looked forward to every session because it was always fun & laughter, things that turned my down days around. Even though we won't meet up as frequent, I hope that we will continue hanging out even as our schedule becomes busier. Love you guys!!!❤ All the best for A Levels! Wishing the J1s a fruitful time as well & make Nexus even greater☺ I don't regret joining a cooperative because it gave me an insight on how certain products came about for a purposeful objective & many of such products are common items seen in our everyday lives which I would never have realised unless I became a member of a cooperative. Moreover, it gave me the opportunity to serve others together with my team members which is really meaningful. @sncfsg #thatsacoop |
