Singapore Day 2009 was held in Londay on 25 April 2009. 12,000 overseas Singaporeans gathered at the Hampton Court Palace in London to soak in the Singapore experience. The Guest-of-Honour was our Member of Parliament Mr Wong Kan Seng, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Home Affairs.

Do you know of any Bishan East resident currently working, studying or living overseas? If you do, can you drop us an email at bepap@singnet.com.sg so that we can invite them to write about their overseas experience?

Finally, SG Day arrived in London! Free hawker food galore + hilarious performances by talented artistes, what more could a Singaporean in London ask for?
It was also a privilege meeting up with Mr Wong and catching up with him at lunch.
Now.. the event just made me miss home more and wish to go back soon!
Dear Elsie,
We are glad you enjoyed it.
