On 27th July 2015, YCH signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Singapore Workforce Development Agency (WDA) to become more manpower-lean and build a stronger Singapore core, demonstrating our commitment towards the national SkillsFuture movement. Minister for Manpower Mr Lim Swee Say was the Guest-of-Honour for the signing ceremony.

The MOU covered five areas of collaboration, namely the SkillsFuture Earn and Learn Programme, Individual Learning Portfolio (ILP), SkillsFuture Credit, Industry and Enterprise-level Manpower Development Initiatives and promotion of Technology Solutions to Drive Enterprise Transformation.

Minister Lim Swee Say was also given a tour around the YCH facility, where he was introduced to Supply Chain City™, an integrated high-tech facility where YCH’s new corporate HQ would be located. Innovative technologies that would help to improve productivity and efficiency such as the Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology and a centralized Control Tower monitoring regional operation were showcased during the tour. In addition to these technologies, other high-tech solutions such as drones and Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs) would be employed within Supply Chain City™ when the facility opens next year.
