Rice-Dumplings: The String

Wonder how local rice dumplings can bring Singaporeans closer together over the years? Watch this video to find out more!

Rice-dumplings: The String is a project that reflects the views of three secondary four students from River Valley High School on how local rice dumplings brought Singaporeans together throughout the years. We hope that our video will encourage Singaporeans to discover for themselves their own personal connections as Singaporeans through local food as well.
