These four multi-racial manga characters are Putri’s original creations. They are each wearing their respective ethnic costumes to celebrate their unique racial and religious festivals. Using her imagination, she has created her own universe with these characters, all of whom have a unique backstory. Putri loves to watch anime and read manga. She aspires to be a “Mangaka” (Manga Artist) in the future. Putri’s wish for Singapore’s birthday is for all Singaporeans to respect the different races and to live happily and harmoniously together.
