Singapore turns 45

Having once organised a National Day Dinner (NDD), one can appreciates the planning and organisation that had gone into making the evening's event happens. Unlike being in military service before where logistics support and manpower were readily available, organising one and managing it based on volunteers can be rather stressful. I guess thats the challenge of being in the Grassroots. Working with whatever we have, to do whatever we can. In the course of it, we make many new friends and of course get to know the likes/dislikes of individuals.


I guess to embrace "Community Bonding", it has to start with GRL Bonding which can be an uphill climb for some. Whilst it may comes most naturally for many, others require some additional effort.

In NDD 2010, members of the CCC were also given their letter of appointment during the dinner. Dressed in LIME GREEN and BLACK PANTS, one-by-one received their appointment letter from the Advisor followed by the traditional cake cutting to celebrate the nation's 45th birthday. With the birthday song and the 3 "Yum-Seng" toast to the Nation, balloons dropped and poppers were released to add to the SERANGOON celebration for the National Day. HAPPY BIRTHDAY SINGAPORE !!!
