Singapore's National Day Parades, past and present



(Photo source: Times of My Life.)

Singapore's National Day is on 9 August. Singapore was separated from the rest of Malaysia on 9 August 1965, and became a sovereign, democratic and independent nation (see source). National Day commemorates the day when Singapore became an independent nation.

There's a recent post on Yesterday.sg that links to Laokokok's post that reminisces about the National Day Parades. It is worth a read. It was interesting for me to read about how National Day was celebrated in the past.

Check it out: National Day Parades, then and now.
