Singapore national day 2009

Singapore is the small but dynamic country now. We are going to celebrate the 44Th national day. I am very proud to be Singaporean, I will tell you why?

This coming National day fall on 9Th of August 2009, all Singaporeans are waiting for the grand national day celebration. Why Singapore national day is so significant to me?Let's me voice out just four points, shelter, job, education and go globally.
After separation from Malaysia, Singapore became the independent country, the day was 9Th of August 1965. At that time, many people doubted whether the tiny red dot Singapore could survive or not because of lacking natural resources. But our Singapore pioneer leaders and all citizens had the iron will to overcome all the obstacles and proved to the world that we could make it even we were weak at that time. Singapore pioneer leaders started the great plan in nation building. Providing shelters for all Singaporeans were the immediate task. They built houses for hundreds and thousands of Singaporeans, so that Singaporeans had their own comfortable houses to live in. The pioneer leaders reclaimed the land and built up many factories in industrial estates, like the famous Jurong industrial estate,etc.Now Jurong industrial estates became one of the big industrial estates in the world. Many people then had jobs to do.
The leaders knew that education was very important for Singapore's development because we had only human resources. We needed to maximum their potentials fully. That's why Singapore had invested heavily on education. In order to have peaceful environment, we were promoting racial, religious harmony. We encouraged all races, religion to have more interaction, mutual respect was the strength for Singapore. We always took the new challenges and started to invest globally.

Let me say: happy national day to Singapore and all Singaporeans. We all can watch the Singapore national day parade 2009 on TV, Ndp web site. You can just type " Singapore national day 2009 on Internet.
