In a grassroots first, residents of Hougang and Punggol East came together to celebrate Hari Raya at Pesta Raya SG50 with mirth and joy! Joining us in the festivities on Saturday, 1st August were the MPs for Hougang and Punggol East, Mr Png Eng Huat and Ms Lee Li Lian, who were ushered in with a rousing traditional kompang performance. The crowd was treated to the melodious musical prowess of the very accomplished Rozie Rahim as they tucked themselves into a delectable array of Malay dishes. In the true spirit of SG50 and in celebration of our multi-racial Singaporean community, three ethnically Chinese residents impressed the audience with their rendition of the aptly titled Orang Singapura, a Malay song.
We may be from different constituencies and, indeed, different races but our commemoration of Hari Raya was a display of a uniquely Singaporean way of life worth celebrating as our nation lies on the brink of its golden jubilee.

"Hope to see Singapore work towards an inclusive society, a loving and caring nation. A place which Singaporeans are proud of and are eager to stand up for. Stand up for Singapore! Happy 50th Birthday, Singapore!" - Ms Lee Li Lian, Member of Parliament for Punggol East. That was the spirit with which the Punggol East team was out and about at Rivervale Plaza this morning carrying on with our annual tradition of distributing flags on 9th August to wish one and all a Happy National Day!
In celebrating our Golden Jubilee and how far our nation has come over the past 50 years, we also looked to the next 50 via the SG100 Art Competition organised by the Workers' Party Youth Wing where young Punggol East residents were asked to translate their visions for 2065 onto canvas. By the looks of it, we're in store for a colourful future!
