Asia’s Youth, Our Future
The Asian Youth Games’ theme song, Asia’s Youth, Our Future, was unveiled on Friday.
It was composed by local composer/arranger Iskandar Ismail, who has worked with Dick Lee and Jacky Cheung, and the lyrics were written by Hoo Cher Liek of the Ministry of Education and the Singapore Sports Council’s Jose Raymond.
“The theme song is very powerful because it sends out the message about how, together and united, we can strive to be what we want to be, and achieve our dreams,” said Raymond, who heads the communications and IT sub-committee for the Games.
“I wrote it in 20 minutes and Hoo helped fine-tune it to make it friendlier, and to fit the music.”
