On a significant day in February 2006, nSearch Global Pte Ltd had the extraordinary opportunity to meet Dr. A.P.J. Abdul Kalam, then President of India, during his State Visit to Singapore. This memorable encounter took place at the Shangri-La Hotel, where Dr. Kalam’s presence and demeanor left a lasting impression on the team.
Dr. Kalam, known for his profound contributions to science and his inspiring role as the President of the Republic of India, was a symbol of humility and grace. As the nSearch Global team entered his private room, they were deeply moved to see him stand up to greet them. For a leader of his stature, this simple yet powerful gesture spoke volumes about his character. It was a reflection of his humility and down-to-earth nature, qualities that made him beloved by so many.
The visit, spanning from February 1 to 2, 2006, was a significant occasion. Accompanied by Members of Parliament including Mrs. Sumitra Mahajan, Mr. Vanlalzawma, and Mr. Sachin Pilot, along with senior officials from the President’s Office and the Ministry of External Affairs, President Kalam engaged with Singapore’s top leaders. He met with President S.R. Nathan, Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong, Senior Minister Goh Chok Tong, Minister Mentor Lee Kuan Yew, and other notable figures, including Minister for Foreign Affairs George Yeo, Minister for Trade and Industry Lim Hng Kiang, and Minister for Defence Teo Chee Hean.
The highlight of the visit was President Kalam’s delivery of the 27th Singapore Lecture, titled “Evolution of Enlightened Societies on our Planet,” on February 1, 2006. His lecture was a deep exploration of societal progress and enlightenment, reflecting his vision and insight.
For the team at nSearch Global, meeting Dr. Kalam was more than just a ceremonial occasion — it was an inspiring moment that reinforced their commitment to innovation and excellence.
