Congratulations to our past President Prof John N Miksic for being conferred the Public Service Medal for his contribution to developing archaeology in Singapore at this year’s National Day Awards Ceremony. John has been a long-time friend of the society, serving on its Council for many years before taking on the Presidency 2020-2022. He has given the society countless talks and led us on fascinating field trips from Java to Myanmar to Kedah, sharing his enthusiasm and his knowledge without reserve and with a sense of both history and humour. For a short history of his many awards, publications and achievements, please see his Wikipedia profile.
