Tan Wei

Hello everyone! I’m Tan Wei, a year 1 BSc Politics and IR undergraduate and I’m running to be UCL SingSoc Secretary!

Why am I running? Broadly, I’m driven by a desire to contribute to the SingSoc community! Being a committee member is a rewarding opportunity to serve in a society that performs the meaningful function of being a home away from home and reassuring Singapore students here that there is a community they can turn to in times of need. Why the position of Secretary? I find the role to be vital – in ensuring the society’s smooth administration, the Secretary guarantees that the society can focus on serving its members. Furthermore, having served as an administrative assistant in National Service and possessing a penchant for keeping things in order, there is alignment between my personal qualities and the role's functions.

If elected, I will ensure that things in SingSoc run like clockwork by ceaselessly identifying areas to streamline internal administration, such as optimising the organisation of documents to ensure ease of reference by committee members and enhance efficiency. I will also seek to strengthen the committee’s cohesiveness through vitalising internal communications and coordination. Finally, I will support my fellow committee members in realising their visions for the society.

It would be an honour to have your vote and I look forward to the opportunity of cultivating a welcoming and cohesive SingSoc community!
