Our heartest contgratulations to Alvin Ngan, 79th Coy's CSM for 2008 - 2009, who was awarded the BEST BOY AWARD this month.

The Best Boy Award is also known as the “S P Chua Medal” for the Seniors Programme Company. Mr S P Chua joined The Boys’ Brigade since 1930 as a pioneer member of the Organisation, and was the Brigade President from 1958 to 1964 and in 1999 was appointed as the Honorary Brigade President.

It is hoped that this award’s synonymy with their distinguished names will spur members towards excellence in their career in The Boys’ Brigade and the other aspects of their life.
