Lianhe Zaobao Features AAV Team Leads as MaritimeONE Scholars

Lianhe Zaobao featured AAV team leads Tz Lung and Tz Yuan in an article on maritime talent development and the MaritimeONE Scholarship.

The article followed their journey from a family cruise at age 15, where a simple question about how a large steel ship stayed afloat led them toward engineering and maritime technology. It also highlighted their maritime-related polytechnic background, internships across shipyard, laboratory and onboard environments, and their later work at NTU on autonomous maritime systems.

For AAV, the feature mattered because it placed the team inside Singapore’s wider maritime talent story. It showed how student robotics connects with the future of Maritime Singapore, especially as digitalisation, decarbonisation and autonomous systems create new paths for young engineers.
