Happy 44th Birthday Singapore!!

VIPs waving to the parade participants

On 1st August, residents of Mountbatten Constituency celebrated Singapore's 44th National Day with a parade of their own. SM Goh Chok Tong was the guest-of-honour.

Several schools, agencies and partners within Mountbatten Constituency supported the event by sending their students to participate in the parade. There was a huge turnout of residents. It took the organising committee months to prepare and it was a success.


The highlight of the parade - fireworks!!

Today the whole nation is celebrating our 44th National Day. I'll be watching the parade with my family and friends.

Happy Birthday Singapore!!

    Credit goes to the grassroots leaders who put effort and time to organise the events, and of course the residents who took the time to participate. :)

    what a waste. ECL, maybe next time you can sound out the pre-NDP mini parades around the heartlands so we can attend.
