Hi Ganesh,

Nice to meet you. I'm Loong Jin, a member of Ubuntu SG and current president of
the NTU Open Source Society.

While I can't comment on the usage of open source software in the Singapore
government and NGOs, the NTUOSS[1] can possibly provide information about the
use of open source software within NTU. And likewise, NUSHackers[2] (formerly
LinuxNUS[3]) about NUS, and SMU OS3[4] about SMU.

You could also try contacting FOSA-SG[5], which probably has people who would be
better suited to provide information for the rest of the stuff that aren't
covered above.

Another thing I should probably mention is that I am really not sure what kind
of information you are looking for, so perhaps you should phrase your question
more specifically when contacting the individual groups.
