Bishan East Mid-Autumn Festival Celebration 2009

On Saturday, 3 October 2009, Bishan East grassroots leaders organised the annual Mid-Autumn Fesitval Celebration. The event was graced by the Guest-of-Honour, DPM Wong Kan Seng, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Home Affairs, and Member of Parliament for Bishan-Toa Payoh GRC.

Despite the light drizzle, hundreds of residents streamed in to join in the festivities. Residents had the opportunity to taste delicious snacks, as well as savour mooncakes washed down with a cup of traditional Chinese tea. For the first time in Bishan, residents had the rare opportunity to view the magnificient aerial displays of remote-controlled kites which lighted the night skies with their delightful spots of colours. Audiences were also entertained by martial art demonstrations and the ever-intriguing art of face-changing.

Here are some photos taken during the event.
