The recent circuit breaker has made it difficult for the migrant worker community to stay connected to their loved ones. It has also made it difficult for organisations such as SG Accident Care Centre, which focuses on providing treatment and assistance for migrant workers, to reach out to the migrant worker community. Through their services, we see the importance of building a personal connection with the migrant worker community. While technology has created convenience and comfort for many, the human touch is what creates a home for their community.

Director Statement:
As a child, an example of advanced technology was using a floppy disk the size of my palm to store digital information up to a few megabytes. Today, I find myself ordering a cup of coffee by scanning a QR code on my phone - a device that connects me to the world and can answer any question in a few microseconds.

Yet research suggests that at least one in 10 households in Singapore is not plugged into the digital world. Hearing this, I was interested in finding out how the rapid digitalisation of our society has affected different demographics.

Embarking on this series allowed me to learn how integral technology is in our lives. From making purchases to expressing ourselves, and connecting with others. Technology is now indispensable to us and thus it is critical to make sure no one is left behind in this digital age.
