11,000 gather in Melbourne to celebrate Singapore Day

Melbourne - He may have left Singapore five years ago for a change of lifestyle in Melbourne but Mr Mano Doray said he is still 'very Singaporean'.

So when he heard that Singapore Day was coming to the Australian city, the sales representative made sure that he and his family came early - at 10am - to soak in the sights, sounds and tastes of Singapore.

'We miss the food, we miss speaking in Singlish, like hor and wah lau,' said the 46-year-old.

Yesterday, over 11,000 Singaporeans from Melbourne and other parts of Australia and New Zealand gathered at the Sidney Myer Music Bowl to attend the event organised by the Overseas Singaporean Unit (OSU).

The turnout was almost double that of the first Singapore Day held in New York last year, which drew about 6,000 Singaporeans.

There are about 40,000 Singaporeans living in Australia, with about 10,000 based in Melbourne.

Many headed straight for the food stalls where hawkers from Food Republic whipped up favourites like char kway teow, chilli crab and roti prata.

Mr Lim Thiam Seng, 35, an auditor working in Melbourne, waited for 30 minutes for his Hainanese chicken rice. 'I cook a lot of Singapore food here but the taste is always different from home.'

Themed Rekindle and Rediscover, the park was transformed into a mini-Singapore with areas like Newton Circus and Clarke Quay. Singlish-speaking contractor Phua Chu Kang and his family, from the hit TV show, put up a skit.

Prominent home-grown artists such as Dick Lee, Singapore Idol Hady Mirza and rock band Electrico also performed.

The crowd also got a first-hand glimpse of the evolving cityscape at the new downtown via interactive display models. Students and professionals took the opportunity to meet employers from the private and public sectors.

Children got to experience the new learning environment through sample lessons conducted by four primary school teachers from Singapore.

Ms Dorine Lim, 37, a human resource executive from Melbourne, said she was surprised by the change: 'It's more interactive, the teachers try to engage the students more.'

Deputy Prime Minister Wong Kan Seng, the guest of honour, was also there to touch base with the overseas Singaporeans.

Asked about overseas Singaporeans who do not wish to return home, he said: 'I think there needs to be an emotional connection for those who decide to stay and hopefully one day they will find reason to come back, for family, parents, siblings or friends perhaps.'

In the evening, 400 guests were treated to a specially created dinner by the Singapore Chefs Association at the Melbourne Town Hall. Mr Wong also gave a speech in which he reiterated the importance of Singaporeans overseas to stay connected with home. There are about 150,000 overseas Singaporeans spread across the globe.

OSU director Roy Quek hinted that the Singapore Day next year may be held in London.

Already, the Singaporean community there has set up a Facebook group to gather support for the event.

Quote of the day

Greed is fine.  It is stupidity that hurts.

�老入花� 男人大不幸-----高凌��果日�2007/8/2

Q :活到60�,�人生的�悟?
A:����多起伏,我的��是,�能早�把�望降下�有宗教情� ,就不�走到倪敏然那�路。人到60�,��越�越少,要懂得守,也要懂什��段做什�事。就像凌峰�的:「少年狂、中年�、老年放。」所以我跟余天、�菲�不�老入花�,因�看太多了,最後搞得妻�子散、人��失或心神不�、事�垮掉。倪敏然生前也�到,「人生三大不幸,少年得志,中年失�,�老入花�。」 前��我�都遇�,最後��,他似乎也有�感逃不掉。

生命��最快�
那�他去美�跟李���判,希望她接受夏�,李���同意。李���得����口就表示�感情了。倪敏然�夏�跟他在一起。但夏���,既然你太太不答�,你什�都不能�我,那也�什�好�的。倪敏然�以面�什�都�有,就走了。

Q :他�世�你的影�?
A:他曾在人生最後的�光�,回美�跟�女相�那�天,是一生最快�的日子。以前他跟我玩�多少,名利多���亮�,但到最後,他��� 平淡最快�。所以我很清楚往後生命��最快�。前�天老婆�我要不要陪9��子去拿甲�?我就陪著去,也��女去玩水。跟小孩相�最平淡也最珍�,但人往往失去�,才�懂。

Q:你年�什�都玩�,但�玩�的人不�安分。尤其倪敏然碰到�情豪爽的夏�,被吸引也很正常?
A:也有人一生平平淡淡在�。有句�「玩火自焚」 ,�道我�就�碰�不能碰的�西�?但我�知道什�不能碰。你跟�女孩在一起,能得到身�?�情?�是你的�酬,但你一定要想代�是失掉��是家庭?代���酬本�就是你要算的一本�!像我敢去情色按摩院�?若警察��,我�子都�不及穿,�都�光了,我就忍住不要去了嘛!

越懂分寸越持久 就像今天�嘉玲的party也�我帖子,我太太又在美�,就去�和吧!可是我��得去也是白去,因�已不是我�的�代了,�指望人家�我�怎��?想�年我�也享受�小女生拱上�的滋味,看到老男人在旁�,���:「那老�子��混什�?�豁我�的小妹妹�?」可是我��在�道不是老�子?�出去豁什�?更何�你又不��,也���,不是自己找糗嘛!
老子�,10�人3���,3�短命,3�是胡搞瞎搞把命搞短的, 只有一�是靠修身��。所以�能早��要修身就早快�。�玉清�20��出道就�:「我就是西�白�衫,是�歌唱公��。」他早悟道了,看到野狗好可�,就抱回家�;默默�房子,搞到��上�。 他一生���,只有我��在�名�利,�果他�在《千里之外》最�,�� 周杰�就��他,不��! 周杰�也��他。
�菲自制力也很�,否����多�,身�有多少�惑和女人,��最多的��是他,但�什�一�都拍不到?就是他�望不�,�事就去玩�帆。所以越懂分寸,越能持久,�望若�止�,很多是非就�降�。其�上天不�的�西就是不�,像郭台�有�,但他老婆跟弟弟的死都在明示「 金�不是�所不能」。你看他告�者,�太太墓��得爬�,有反省力的人一定�想:「怎�搞成��?」有�不�下�、不收�、不�德,到中年是很痛苦的。
(�者�玉梅��整理) 

就是因�有了��,才���身�的�!

               人因�有��,所以�得�反��
    
一般人生活在�今繁�的���系下,在任何人、事、物中都有很多的��,也因�有太多的��,! 所! 以�棋不定、�豫不��成了大部份人的��。

�你看著�桌跟你吃的不一��,你可能�始�疑是不是他�的比�好吃?所以每�拿起菜�目�看到林林��一大推的菜名,你只好又�始�棋不定啦!

�你看到朋友、同�日子�的不�,你可能�始�疑自己是不是入�行、��公司了,於是三心二意、工作不力,下�只好每�愈下。

�你逛街看到美女、辣妹,你可能�疑自己是不是娶�老婆、交�女朋友?回家便�好�色看!感情怎��好?
也因���多了,更容易使自己迷失、不知道自己要的是什�?

�得有一次�商一�夫妻,�程中我�老公�
『假如��子你只能�一部喜�的�,也不能�,那你�如何保��部�?』
老公很��的��『那我�用最好的�油、��保�、常常洗�..........。』
我���微笑��他�了一大堆,��我又��
『那假如��子你只能娶一�老婆,也不能�,那你�如何�待她?』
��老公�一�,�著老婆伸手跟我握手��『我知道答案了!』
一瞬�老公看老婆的眼神都�了。

有�侯�有���比有��好!
在今天你如何重新面�你的工作?你的另一半?

~~如果�有��~~ 生命是一�串孤立的片刻。
靠著回�和幻想,�多意�浮�了,在消失�浮�不�的重�之中�得解放�安慰。好好珍惜身�的人!........
『在身�默默�你付出的人往往都不懂得珍惜
  就是因�有了��才���身�的�』
