NDP 2005

Today is Singapore National 40th Birthday. Watching the parade on my home TV once again made me proud to be a Singaporean. Yes, I may complain once in awhile about certain policies, etc, but deep in my heart I know where I belong... Singapore is my home. All my traveling overseas made me love Singapore even more. Yes, we might still have many rooms for improvement, yet...

Thank God for the peace and prosperity we have.
Thank God for our government.
Thank God for our freedom of worship.
Thank God for our education system.
Thank God for economy...

I pray that God will continue to bless Singapore as more and more leaders submit to His leadership to lead this small nation.

Below are some shots taken from the TV... better than those I took during the last Preview at the Padang I guess.
