SINGAPORE - Many Singaporeans have called for the Bicentennial Experience to be made permanent, and this is a move that the Government will carefully study, said Deputy Prime Minister Heng Swee Keat on Sunday .

He was speaking on the sidelines of a visit to the Bicentennial Experience at Fort Canning, where he also welcomed the exhibition's 500,000th visitor, Tampines Meridian Junior College student Tit Yee Kiat, 18. It takes visitors back in time to witness key moments in Singapore's transformation over 700 years, and is one of the main highlights of this year's bicentennial commemoration.

"One important area that we are working on now is the Singapore Together movement. I will like to see how we can bring Singaporeans together to talk about our past, and what does this mean for our future? By looking back at our past, I think we can chart our future better together."
