NDP 2020 mobile column will reach more heartland areas; to pay tribute to frontline and essential workers

SINGAPORE: The National Day Parade mobile column this year will travel along five routes across Singapore to cover more heartland estates.

From 10am to 1pm on Aug 9, residents can get up close to the display of hardware and other vehicles from the Singapore Armed Forces, the Singapore Police Force and the Singapore Civil Defence Force. Its Leopard 2SG Main Battle Tank and Bionix Infantry Vehicle will also be featured, as well as the Republic of Singapore Air Force’s Mounted-Portable Search and Target Acquisition Radar and the Navy’s Harpoon Anti-ship Missile.

About 100 of these workers from various groups such as healthcare, essential industries and the social services sector will be onboard the mobile column’s vehicles as they make their way across Singapore. Captain Eastina Tan poses for a photo during a rehearsal of the mobile column in Tuas South on Aug 1, 2020. “She constantly went to her patients’ house to do house visits, care for them, dispense medicine and monitor them,” said the Formation Liaison Officer for the Terrex Infantry Carrier Vehicle.
