With this 100 women portraits, both Swingvy and Catherhea Teoh aim to inspire and empower women in their professional pursuits and life experiences,” says Melly Ling, Brand Manager at Swingvy.

“It was indeed an honour to be part of the “21st Century Women” photo exhibition together with Swingvy. It is on this day that we must take time to reflect on progress made, call for change and to celebrate acts of courage and determination by us who have played extraordinary roles in the society. This day which is specially dedicated to all women is to reflect on our achievements and celebrate the progress made to advance our equality. Be genuine and be yourself, the journey is in your hands. All in all, attitude matters.”
