NDP prep was no small feat! But, it's over - feeling both =) and =( !!

Singapore, an island with limited resources - how did we survive? Credits goes to our amazingly efficient port operators dealing with exports and imports 24/7, meeting Singapore's needs via trade :)


Port of S'pore Authority (PSA) international, handling about a fifth of the world's total container throughput, should deserve more than just a word of praise or mere acknowledgement by our fellow Singaporeans :P

Let's hav a peek into the intricate PSA Singapore Terminals, flagship of PSA international. Discover the Human-Touches that made our port worked so successfully!

Container Equipment Specialist - "my office.. is the yard-crane"


Senior Mechanical Engineer - "our mission's to keep PSA's port-cranes working - containers after containers.."


Operations Executive - "..make sure that the operations in our ports ran smoothly"


Senior Systems Engineer - "..computers are now a major part of our lives, here at the port.. is no different"

Each and every individual plays a role! Not just restricted to biz but to life in general. So what is yours?

Now that National Day's over, we're having some bittersweet feelings - relief that we've accomplished what we set out to, joy to be part of the nation's celebrations and, of course, a certain amount of sadness that this is going to be the inevitable end of a long journey.

Pardon the emo-ness. Lol.

Anyway, many of you have the funpacks safely in your homes already. Did you enjoy the goodies? Have you used the discount vouchers? And did you see the yellow tab?

(the yellow tab = tab indicating who packed the funpack for you)

These funpacks are packed with love. People from all walks of life - including the deaf, spastic, intellectually disabled, inmates and NSFs - had taken much time and effort to pack the bags so that people who received them would be happy.

Let's take a little look at some photos of our fellow citizens packing:

One good turn deserves another.

Reciprocate their actions with some care and concern, in whatever ways you can, be it by volunteering your time and energy, donating money or simply refusing to judge them.

After all, caring for each member of this society shouldn't be restricted to just National Day.

All of them have their stories... Do listen to them with your heart.
