Dear IES Members,
As the holy month of Ramadan gives way to the festive joy of Hari Raya Puasa, I would like to extend my warmest wishes to our Muslim friends and colleagues. This is a time to celebrate the strength of faith, resilience and community while embracing the future with renewed purpose.
Much like engineering, which is constantly innovating and adapting, Hari Raya reminds us of the beauty of transformation— embracing the past, improving the present and looking ahead with hope. It is a time to rekindle relationships, express gratitude and spread kindness.
May this festive season bring you and your loved ones peace, happiness and renewal. May your hearts be filled with warmth, your homes with laughter and your tables with the richness of tradition.
Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri!
Er. Chan Ewe Jin
30th President
The Institution of Engineers, Singapore

IES Members Tour Cross Island Line CR109 MRT Tunnel Project: A Glimpse into Singapore’s MRT Expansion
On 21 March 2025, the IES Civil & Structural Technical Committee (Geotechnical & Tunnel Division) organised a visit for 30 IES members to the Cross Island Line CR109 MRT tunnel project. The group was briefed about the project by Dr Sun Jian Ping from China Communications Construction Company (CCCC), which is the main contractor for CR109 project.
The group was shown the Tunnel Boring Machine (TBM) in operation - a remarkable feat of precision engineering designed to drill through soil and rock while minimising surface disruption. The engineers on-site demonstrated advanced real-time monitoring systems, automated segment installation, and efficient slurry removal processes.
This tour underscored the innovation propelling Singapore’s metro expansion, with the CR109 project scheduled for completion on 30 December 2029.
