SINGAPORE: Members of the Pioneer Generation will not get preferential allocation of tickets for the National Day Parade, as this goes against the intent to include all Singaporeans as part of the nation's birthday, Senior Minister of State for Defence Maliki Osman said in Parliament on Monday (May 9)

"The Pioneer Generation should be honoured and thanked for their sacrifices, achievements and immense contributions for building the Singapore we know and have today," said Dr Maliki, responding to a question by MP Lim Biow Chuan.

However, as a national celebration for all Singaporeans, it is important that every Singaporean be given an equal chance to attend the NDP."

The Senior Minister of State for Defence pointed out that there will be more seats available for this year's NDP event. The Ministry of Defence expects about 165,000 Singaporeans to be able to watch the two Previews and the parade on the actual day - three times more than past NDPs at the Marina Bay Floating Platform or the Padang.
