(Below) A Day to Remember

announced Singapore’s separation from the Malaysian Federation
  
                                                 If you have forgot our history, let's refresh here.


 First National Day Parade 1966

Remind me of army days - siong ah

 On a little street of Singapore
A typical street market in Singapore back in the 60s and 70s showcasing the 
multicultural aspects of Singapore with the local flavours of Chinese, Malay and Indian street food.

What's your childhood favorite food that you cannot find now?

So Singapore 
Illustrating that time is precious and finite, this Center-piece honors the past and 
celebrates the present. Backing the idea of time are the iconic quirks that make up 
the Singaporean DNA.

Wow, chewing gum also written here. Our powerful Singlish hor hee huh LAH!

Wah lau eh! Still D24 meh? I thought "Cat Mountain King"

  Our Heartlands
A typical scene of our heartlands with HDB flats, playground and MRT train in the background, 
to showcase where Singaporeans live and play homes. 

 This angle to see MRT. Where are our HDB?

 Sentosa – The State of Fun!
This scene celebrates Sentosa as one of the tourism icons in Singapore.

Is this the olden day Sentosa? The one we took ferry and there's a A&W ship! 
Remember? Oh, maybe you are too young.



 Our Home
This final scene depicts the metropolis that Singapore has become today out of mudflats. 
It shows modern Singapore with the skyline of the financial district, and a couple from 
the Pioneer Generation who have been instrumental to Singapore’s success story.

Who is this couple? LKY? No leh, maybe JooHeng Tan (sculpture himself)

 Don't just appreciate those Sand Sculpture, those people behind them, 
remember the one who post this for you too : )

Have fun and have a wonderful long holidays! Happy National Day!
