The sgp prize is an annual award given by the government of Singapore to honour individuals and groups that are making a difference in the lives of the people of the country. This includes social, cultural, and environmental organizations as well as charities. The award is not based on an individual’s performance but rather on the overall impact of their efforts. The winners will receive a grant of PS1 million to continue their work. The five winning organisations range from a soil carbon initiative to WildAid, which protects marine life.
The prize is open to all Singaporeans and permanent residents. There are four categories, namely English creative non-fiction, English fiction, Chinese language literature and Malay literature. Each category is judged by a panel of writers and industry experts. Chief judges include Esplanade communications and content head Clarissa Oon for English creative non-fiction, Cultural Medallion recipient KTM Iqbal for Tamil poetry and Dr Sa’eda Buang from the Asian Languages and Cultures Academic Group for Malay fiction. Each of the shortlisted works will be read by three different judges before the winner is announced.
A new addition to this year’s SGP is the Readers’ Favourite award, which is voted for by the public. This will replace the previous Best Debut award, which was also voted on by the public. The other awards will remain the same.
For the first time, the sgp prize is being awarded in a non-fiction category. It is a book-length work written or co-written by a Singaporean that has made a significant contribution to our understanding of the country’s history, and can be either an original or translated work. The work can cover any period, theme or field of Singapore’s history and may be about a particular event, place or person. It must also address the significance of Singapore’s history to our national identity, as well as the relevance of that history in our daily lives.
Another change to this year’s SGP is the introduction of a translation award. This will be awarded to a fiction or non-fiction book published in English by a Singaporean who is either a permanent resident or citizen, and translated from another language into English. The work must have been published between 2021 and 2024. It will be a separate award from the English fiction and Chinese language literature categories, although works previously shortlisted for these categories could also win the translation prize, such as comic artist Sonny Liew’s The Art Of Charlie Chan Hock Chye, which was shortlisted in 2016 under the English fiction category.
In contrast to traditional parlays, which feature correlated outcomes, SGP bets are not correlated. The success of one bet will not influence the outcome of other games included in the parlay, which increases your potential payouts. SGPs are a great way to diversify your baseball betting portfolio and increase your chances of hitting the jackpot. They can be a good addition to any winning baseball betting strategy.
