First time participating in NDP

 


Yesterday I participated in NDP for the first time. I was very stressed as I had been practicing the drills for weeks and on the day itself I wanted to make sure I do not mess up my drills. However during the parade I felt very calm as I just took as another practice. Thankfully I did not mess up and was proud of myself. After the parade I felt very relived. I would like to take part in more parades and maybe take on different roles in the parade.

Why I choose this pressing issue? Racism is a serious matter in the world. Racism is a topic that is often overlooked. Racism is something I have seen first hand. It does not only affect the youth but adults as well. Although Singapore is a multiracial country it is still affected by racism and thus i would like to address this issue. Why does Racism exist?
