20110910-HGCC-Lantern-Parade

Celebrating Mid Autumn With Hougang Residents Hougang residents celebrated their first Lantern festival with their MP Yaw Shin Leong last night. More than 550 Hougang residents turned up for the celebration in anticipation of the exciting games, performances, and the lucky draw prizes. More importantly, it was a time to gather with their family, neighbours and their new MP for a time of tea, mooncake and fellowship on this mid autumn festival. The night saw 3 great dance performances by 2 different dance groups, Pu Ti Buddhist Temple and J&A Dance Group. Both children and adults enjoyed the dance performance tremendously. The slight drizzle interrupted an initial attempt for a lantern parade around the neighbourhood park. Eventually, the sky cleared, and everyone gathered enthusiastically, lit their lanterns and followed Mr Yaw for a parade round the park. It was a traditional lantern parade that would take place every year for HGCC organized lantern parade. This year was no exception. The children carried their lit up lanterns and joined the parade happily. It was rumoured that the 1st prize was a 29” flatscreen TV, residents were more than glad to find out that it was a 32” Samsung flatscreen instead. There was also Ipod shuffle, Oto Foot Massager, and even a fully equipped 1 feet aquarium amongst other attractive prizes. Everyone went home happy. Some with the memories of an enjoyable experience with their loved ones, others with goodie bags, yet others with their lucky draw prizes. The children were the greatest winners. The emcees humoured them with lots of fun games, and they get cute sculptured balloons, on top of goodie bags full of tidbits and lanterns. Overheard from a resident: Next year I want to ‘chop’ tickets early! Hougang Constituency Committee (HGCC, WP’s alternative grassroots arm in Hougang) would like to thank all their generous sponsors, who donated cash, the lucky draw prizes, mooncakes, piglet baskets, paper lanterns and drinks. Also, HGCC expresses appreciation and thanks to all volunteers who gave their time and effort to make the event a success and an enjoyable one. HGCC wishes everyone a Happy Mid Autumn!

I like the Kampong Spirit. Unfortunately Potong Pasir residents may have to miss it for the next painful 5 years under PAP.
