The APMOPS, organised by Singaporean-based Hwa Chong Institution, is an annual event for under-13 students that sets out to generate greater interest in mathematics among pupils in primary schools and sharpening their problem-solving skills.
This year the competition attracted the participation of candidates from 14 Asia-Pacific countries.
