NDP COMMITTEE INVESTIGATING S’PORE FLAG SCREW UP DURING NDP FINALE

The NDP committee is investigating why the National Stadium’s domed roof failed to light up with the Singapore flag during the fireworks finales on National Day.

The Committee said: “The Singapore flag was not projected onto the roof of the National Stadium during the pledge-taking and singing of the National Anthem at the end of the National Day Parade, and we are in the process of ascertaining the cause”

This comes after popular NDP items like the Red Lions parachuting team and the fighter jet flyby were canned due to the closed roof.

The Committee tried hard to put a positive spin to this hiccup by stating that “Celebrations still went on smoothly, and the NDP 2016 Executive Committee is heartened by the spirit of Singaporeans both at the National Stadium and at home celebrating our nation’s 51st birthday”
