Shocking: National Day Parade to continue as planned - forum456 - 20-07-2021

The National Day Parade will proceed as planned and Mindef is reviewing the scale of the parade to ensure that all the necessary safe management measures are still adhered to, said Finance Minister Lawrence Wong on Tuesday (July 20).

Mr Wong said that National Day on Aug 9 is a very important national event, so the parade is going ahead as planned.

"Mindef is reviewing the conduct of the parade, the scale of the parade and all the necessary safe management measures to ensure that any rehearsal or events leading up to the parade itself can be done safely," he said at the multi-ministry task force press conference tackling Covid-19.


Mindef will provide updates on this in due course, he added.
Mr Wong was responding to a question on how the current outbreak will affect the National Day Parade.
The number of community infections on Tuesday has grown to 184 cases, prompting the ministry to hunker down and announce tighter measures by going back to Phase Two Heightened Alert.

Why NDP can continue when the group of people are much larger than dine in in restaurants ?

It does not make sense to have NDP which can cause mass infection if the thousands of audience are involved.

2 persons dine in is not allowed but thousands of audience in NDP are allowed ?

Something is seriously wrong with the ministers ?

Can all the ministers in COVID team resign if mass infection occurs in NDP ?

They need to be accountable for their mistake if it occurs.

The NDP is getting more and more complex every year. Waste so much money and effort on umpteen rehearsals.
