1) Chief Justice, Sundaresh Menon voted the coolest cat - front row seat next to DPM Tharman in a short sleeved colourful shirt that carried him well compared to so many porlumpars with full suit and tie.

2) Aunty in heavy slumber seated next to May Schooling. The cameraman immediately cut off the Schooling when he noticed the aunty sleeping. Not sure if someone woke her up or the clapping when Joseph Schooling was mentioned. Can see aunty wiping her eyes and trying to sit up.

3) Apparently same SCDF ambulance that treated Heng Swee Kiat and invited to grace the occasion had to attend to LHL when he fainted.

4) MP Lee Bee Wah photo flashed on screen cheering Joseph Schooling - looks like this women is determined to hog the limelight on Schooling

The whole annual event is nothing but trivia.

Nothing good has come out of any of these NDP speeches ever. All the nation gets is memorable sound bytes.

"Mee Siam Mai Hum", "Pak Si Buay Cao" etc.

The policies have come to naught too. Swiss standard of living, stop at two, graduate mother scheme, NSS, remaking singapore and a whole pile of bullshit that I can no longer recall after being away for so long but I still remember it being shit because it smelled so bad at the time.

The country lurches from one fad to the next with no real sense of direction and no obvious purpose. It is kept afloat only because of a population ponzi scheme that will soon unravel.

I agree. NDR is a waste of time. Will Singaporeans be better because of NDR? Perhaps LHL's taking last nite is divine's way of telling the pap to cut out future NDRs. If pap insists on holding NDRs, more things may happen in future

You guys actually sit through and watch that crap? There are better ways to fully use one's time (i.e. watching pornographic movies or catch pokemon)

Why think the thread is on trivia. Thats where the entertainment is. Certainly beats conversing with a man pretending to be a woman on the belief that you out-trolling a troll when the whole aim of the troll is not the pretence but the continuous baiting and hooking to occupy his sorry life.

During the fathers time, it was what he wanted to do, the agenda, the plan and what he wanted to achieve, some of which are highly controversial and subsequently removed. The son's however is a report card - gardens by the bay, punggol waterway, Biopolis, Fusionpolis etc. Nothing about job creation, job security and why Singapore is now the most expensive city to live in.

GCT's 14 years, no one can remember what he said 14 times - so there is not substance. The Swiss Standard and the Football team to make the World Cup was not mentioned during NDR. GCT mentioned Swiss Standard in 1984 during GE1984 to be achieved in 1999. What we ended up with is Philippines bud grafted into Singapore.

To upkeep and to provide their lifestyle, they hv to create enormous infrastructures, thereby importing masses of workers who in turn provide huge huge levies into its coffer.

What other ways they can generate the $$, except the taxes n levies, fines, etc ?

LKY was a very effective leader. He was able to articulate his vision and get people to follow him.

How we miss LKY

They have no vision for SG except to build more malls to collect rents and import more foreign trash to collect levies. In the process the pap kills SG with high cost of living

Yes, these are basically eye candies. It was the norm in ancient civilisation and kingdom where iconic structures, many of them white elephants are built to honour their reign. I note that during GCT's time this sort of stuff did not occur because he had old man watch over his shoulders.

Though these things do make living in a congested city more liveable, if these becomes symbols and markers of a time when citizens and society had progressed together it would have fantastic. A time when people had job security, fresh school-leavers and graduates had hope, housing become more affordable for the young, an a more inclusive society etc.

These will now become symbols and markers of a time when MRT and breakdown were a constant, crime increasing, fractures in society between races as well between locals and foreigners, introducing new legislations to restrict the media and general discussions, the lack of transparency and accountability over our sovereign funds, the bets in Barclays, Merril Lynch, Credit Suisse etc going sour.
