INTERNATIONAL YEAR OF THE REEF. BE PART OF THE SOLUTION.
In celebration of the International Year of the Reef 2018, do your part to help preserve and conserve Singapore's coastal and marine ecosystem. It starts with conscious consumption and reducing single-use plastics in our everyday life.
Let’s keep our oceans full of life, not plastic

FRANK by OCBC x Messymsxi - A Natural Effort
In a slum in India, knee-deep in 400kg of plastic waste, surrounded by the choking smell of burning PVC—Zi Xi's has been to some interesting places, all as a result of her passion for the environment. As the daughter of a Chinese painter, illustration came naturally to Zi Xi, although it was never a profession she thought she'd end up in.
