60 seconds with NDP Hosts- Mark Lee & Michelle Chong
5 August 2009 Wednesday | National Day 2009

Cruz: How many times on the NDP stage so far?

Mark: First time as host. I last performed in my school days. I was the drum major of my school band.

Michelle & Cruz: What? Incredible!

Mark: Cannot isit!

Michelle: Can lah, can lah. Anyway, this is my 3rd time hosting the NDP. I fell into the waters last year.

Mark & Cruz: Oh really?

Mark: Aiyah, why they rescue you?!?!

Michelle: Hahaha! They were more concerned about the microphone I was holding.

Cruz: Then how?

Michelle: We were supposed to make a grand entrance last year, via jet skis. But they canned the idea after I fell.

Mark: See lah! Sabo queen!

Cruz: Right. What’s it like to host the NDP?

Mark: The nation comes together every 9 Aug, whether you’re at home or at the NDP. Standing on the grand stage this year, I do feel a little stressed. But I believe the excitement of it all is worthwhile. I hope everything will go smoothly.

Michelle: I’m hoping everyone will be moved to tears! Hahha.

Mark: I think the finale this year will be a spectacular one. The best ever.

Cruz: Yes! Remember the PLEDGE MOMENT at 8.22pm!

Whether you’re alone, or with friends and family… Whether you’re in Bangkok or Buangkok, Seattle or Seng Kang… 8.22pm, 9 August will be a magnificent moment. Only if you put your right fist on your chest, and recite the Pledge. And mean every word of it.

2. Live telecast on MediaCorp TV stations from 1815 hrs. Overseas Singaporeans can watch the webcast. And if that isn’t enough, you get to zoom in and out with multiple webcams on MediaCorp’s NDP microsite.

3. Locations near The Float are seeing a surge in demand for this Sunday. Y.E.S. 93.3FM will be giving away exclusive passes to the Singapore Flyer. Imagine catching the parade and fireworks high up in the sky! This week on WRM.
