Singapore, National Day
Aug 9 is National Day in Singapore. (date corrected:7/8/05)This year, it was Singapore's 39th birthday. Oh-oh, she is almost twelve years younger than me.
As you know, Singapore is a multiracial country. The population consists of 76.5% of Chinese, 13.8% of Malays, 8.1% of Indians and 1.6% of other races. (source: "Singapore 2003" by Ministry of Information, Communications and the Arts)
So as for Singapore, it is very important to unite the country regardless of race, language or religion.
Singaporeans fly the national flag on the wall of their apartment building, lucky 60,000 spectators see the National Day Parade at the National Stadium, the rest of Singaporeans watch the parade on TV that day. They sing National Day Songs and National Anthem all together wearing red-coloured official National Day T-shirt.
Me? I watched the 2004 National Day Parade in Tokyo live on the internet. I put on the red T-shirt, too.

Thank you.
I thought you are not Japanese when I saw your comment first.
Did you take advantage of some translation site?
