On 17 December 2024, idsMED Singapore hosted its annual Christmas celebration at the idsMED Learning Academy and Lounge. Themed Christmas Fantasy, the lunch event brought together over 80 employees for a joyful and memorable afternoon.
The festivities began with an opening speech by Singapore’s Managing Director & SVP, Mr. Shrikanth Sankar. Following that, idsMED Singapore bade farewell to former EVP - Strategic Business Projects & Partnerships, Mr. Gerald Tan and former Consultant, Ms. Lok Lu Lu who both then gave their farewell address. They were presented tokens of appreciation for their long-time commitment and contributions to idsMED.
The senior management and directors then officially marked the commencement of the celebration with the ceremonial cutting of turkey and ham. Everyone present was then invited to enjoy the delectable buffet lunch catered by Chilli Api, featuring a variety of dishes, including a cold cut platter, roast chicken, barramundi, roast beef, brownies and log cake. To enhance the festive atmosphere, wine was also provided by the organising committee.
After lunch, the highly anticipated Lucky Draw began and the excitement in the room became palpable. The draw included 20 Takashimaya vouchers with increasing monetary value and several additional items as tokens of appreciation for employees – all of which were generously sponsored by members of the Management Team. The Lucky Draw was divided into two segments. During the first segment, the prizes were presented by Director – Medical Solutions, Mr. Michael Pan; Senior Vice President (SVP) – SFO Unit, Mr. Muhammad Ata; and Mr. Gerald Tan. The top 10 prizes were later presented by Mr. Shrikanth Sankar during the second segment.
Another highlight of the event was the Best Dressed Award where Elizabeth from FSS walked away with the title as she came elegantly dressed as Mrs Claus. Fun and laughter continued as employees enthusiastically competed and participated in games such as Finish the Lyrics: Christmas Songs Edition and Charades of Christmas phrases. The games fostered a lighthearted environment as colleagues got to know each other better amidst the excitement and banter. As the final round of fun, the nine game winners gathered to draw lots for another chance to win prizes. Four lucky winners emerged and attained additional prizes. The event closed on a high note with a cheerful Gift Exchange, spreading holiday spirit and goodwill.
The Christmas Fantasy celebration at idsMED Singapore was a resounding success, combining heartfelt moments, entertainment, and festive cheer to close the year on a high note.
