Close to 50,000 Singaporeans flocked to the floating platform and the vicinity of Esplanade and Raffles Place to partake in, participate in, or view the nation’s most spectacular parade of the year, painting the town red (literally).
Red is the colour for today as Singaporeans jammed the streets from City Hall MRT all the way to the Esplanade area.
1500 hours, parade-goers already began thronging in, law and orderliness is being continuously reinforced by the hundreds of police officers stationed all around the area, preventing a stampede J.
While yesterday, the world reverberated in the China’s Olympics, Today is a day belonging to Singapore and Singaporeans!
The parade is as spectacular as ever , though for the first time in many years, it rained for an hour an hour into the parade.
Nevertheless, Singaporeans soaked the fun as much as the rain!
