Ever had one of those days where every corner of the city seems to be buzzing with something big?
That’s Singapore this week — where national pride, business milestones, and international headlines are all colliding in one spectacular moment.
From the heart of Marina Bay to the trading floors of SGX, here’s why our little red dot has everyone talking.
🎆 SG60: Pride on Parade
This year’s National Day Parade lit up the Padang with more than just fireworks. Think dazzling aerial flypasts, intricate floats, and a sea of red-and-white waving with pride.
- Highlight: A special SG60 tribute showcasing Singapore’s journey from kampongs to a global hub.
- Families, tourists, and even regional leaders gathered shoulder to shoulder — a true reflection of how far we’ve come.
📈 Market Momentum at SGX
The Singapore Exchange (SGX) isn’t just making quiet gains; it’s hitting record profits and boasting the strongest IPO pipeline in years.
- What’s driving it? A renewed investor appetite for Asia and companies choosing Singapore as their capital-raising stage.
- Fun fact: SGX was buzzing so much last week, you could almost hear the celebratory coffee clinks from across Shenton Way.
🚔 Lights, Camera… Police Action!
Singapore Police went viral with a Rajinikanth-inspired parade performance that had social media in stitches (and admiration).
- Proof that even our most disciplined forces can have a little fun.
- Cue the slow-motion sunglasses removal and dramatic walk-off.
✈ High-Stakes in the Skies
On a Dubai–Singapore flight, a quick-thinking crew and vigilant passengers stopped a mid-air theft in business class.
- The suspect didn’t even make it past Changi’s arrivals hall before being taken in.
- Just another day where safety and vigilance keep our skies friendly.
🤝 Leaders on the Global Stage
At SG60, Singapore welcomed His Majesty Sultan Hassanal Bolkiah of Brunei, President Prabowo Subianto of Indonesia, and Malaysia’s Deputy Prime Minister Ahmad Zahid Hamidi.
- Their presence highlighted strong regional ties, from trade and security to cultural exchange.
- These weren’t just photo ops — they were moments that reinforced Singapore’s place as a trusted partner in Southeast Asia.
