un pensamiento para ti...

nationa day parade 2006
This is quite late cos NDP was on Wednesday. But was watching the rerun today and couldn't help but comment on this...
There is a segment during the parade where a montage of scenes were played to talk about the history of the National Stadium, how it has see through so much of Singapore since its independence when it hosted Singapore's first birthday. Sadly, the structure will be torn down, and this year is the last during which the NDP would be help.
There was, however, a tiny hitch in the otherwise touching presentation - they used a really famous movie soundtrack from Lord of the Rings, more specifically, from the Return of the King.
Being Singapore's birthday, and having spent so much just for costumes, fireworks, rehearsals and even making original national songs (which frankly, stopped being good since the late 90s), what's writing a new score to them? Haven't they been boasting about how we are a cultural hub and how we have all these talented people spicing up the cultural scene?
This to me is a shame.
