HBS Prof Dutch Leonard, Programme Director of HBS 15-year Social Enterprise Initiative on our 5 Scholars @ SPNM'09:

'The Singapore 5 are, I think, having a great time. They area speaking up, and I had my picture taken with all of them yesterday at the centennial bell in front of Baker Library.

Due to your sterling efforts on behalf of Singapore and HBS, Singapore is the most highly represented part of the world (participants per 1,000,000 population) in the SPNM program.

Singapore: About 1.1 per million

Australia: About 0.9 per million

US: About 0.3 per million

Best regards, Dutch.'
