A short while ago, I returned from the Serangoon North Village Spring Festival night Opening ceremony 2009 , followed by the official light up. The event was organised by the Serangoon North Merchants' Association. Mrs Lim Hwee Hua was the Guest of Honour.
The stage and pavillion area was very well decorated. In fact, last night Daisie and I were walking around that place and saw some key Committee members putting the finishing touches to the decorations. They were really hard working...Mdm Teng, Patrick, Edmund, Chua , etc..and their wives too...pitched in to help.
Dr Edmund Tan, as Chairman of the Organising Committee, was the first to be invited up on stage to give the Welcome address.
He was warmly applauded by the good crowd of residents as well as community leaders present.
The crowd and especially the coffeeshop and other shops nearby were filled with more people than usual.
Mrs Lim Hwee Hua, the MP for the area, was invited to give her Speech.
She too was warmly applauded after she spoke. She was presented with a bouquet of flowers by a sweet, little girl.

ReplyDeleteThat's the same feeling Daisie and I got too.
