The biggest and well organized one being the npd08 = national day parade - a 3 hour mega show on a stage in Marina Bay involving tenthousands of actors, a flight show of the national air force and ending with a nice firework in the bay. It is said that 200.000 people watched it in the bay and even more on the tv... at least for us...our elective student group of 10 people... found it very very crowded in the city. The government puts a lot of money into the event. All the houses were decorated with the National Flag and the motto of the day was "Celebrating the Singapore Spirit" and it is praising the ambitions, goals and characteristics of the nation. Find out more about this on Wikipedia.

Hast du die eröffnungsfeier der Olympischen Spiele gesehen? Wenn nicht, war deine Zeremomie vielleicht ein kleiner Trost!
Ja, die war mal echt wahnsinn! hab sie leider nicht live gesehen, sondern erst in der wiederholung - da ich da grad transpirierend durch den zoo dschungel der night safari gestapft bin
