It’s the Nation’s 44th birthday. Organized by the members of The Workers’ Party Youth Wing, a group of about 20 WP members clad in blue came together early in the morning on National Day to distribute flags and temporary tattoos with the words “I Love Singapore” to the public.
After a short walkabout in Hougang Central, we made our way down to town via the North-East MRT Line, greeting people along the way with high spirited “Happy National Day!”. Many were pleasantly surprised by the wishes, and gladly returned the greeting enthusiastically. Others waved back to us with a smile and a nod. Children as well as some adults held up their flags and shared the joy. Some parents immediately applied the skin tattoo on their infants, taking the opportunity to instill an upbeat mood as we come together to celebrate our Nation’s birthday.
