  "account": "The Global Schools Group (GSG), a Singapore-based network of international and private schools, announced plans to expand its presence by opening 20 new international campuses by 2030. This expansion will bring the total number of campuses to 84 across 14 countries, including Singapore, Japan, India, and Saudi Arabia. Currently, GSG serves over 45,000 students in its existing network of 64 campuses. The company's founder, Atul Temurnikar, emphasized that while the company's Indian heritage is deeply rooted, its global journey began in Singapore in 2001. Law Minister and Second Home Affairs Minister Edwin Tong, who attended the 25th anniversary celebration, praised GSG for its outward-looking, cosmopolitan approach and pledged a S$100,000 philanthropic donation to support community initiatives in Singapore, focusing on enhancing accessibility in special education schools and inclusive community spaces.",
