NDP 2024

The number “59” and letters “SG” has been embedded into this year’s NDP 2024 logo, symbolising Singapore and our 59 years of independence.

In our 5th collaboration with the National Day Parade (NDP) Executive Committee, we partnered Temenggong Artists-In-Residence, a renowned non-profit arts organisation, to co-create 6 artworks with 40 student artists from 22 Special Education (SPED) schools for the 2024 NDP packs. The artworks, drawn by the student artists and composed by Temenggong Artists-In-Residence, express their ideas about Total Defence and convey their best wishes for our Nation’s birthday. The artists’ contributions also show how our strengths, aspirations and shared experiences are what truly defines us as Singaporeans.

Singapore is known for being a multiracial country, our people are, therefore, adaptable and can react to situations when necessary. We continue to believe in helping one another regardless of our race and religion. The four persons here represented different cultural backgrounds in a shared, harmonious society, ready to protect our people, our animals, our homes, and our communities, with the support of our Civil Defence.

Digital Defence is arrayed here with elements from the cyber world, internet security and our robotic era. We must continuously educate our young and the elderly to utilize social media and technology appropriately and responsibly. By mentally preparing and protecting ourselves from online scams and falsehoods, we can instead utilize our advanced Digital Defence to its fullest and benefit Singapore and our people through practical technology usage.
