2023. - The first NFLTC is hosted; we are the first competition in Singapore to involve 5 languages: Spanish, French, Japanese, English, and Mandarin Chinese.
2024. - With the MDDI's National Translation Committee's support, we win the CITEG again. NFLTC is expanded to include German, making us Singapore's first competition to involve 6 languages.
