In August, the national flags flying in the streets and orchids can be seen everywhere in the Lion City, interweaving into a sea of red and white faith. The crescent moon and five stars on the red flag carry the wind and rain of Singapore’s independence for nearly 60 years – red is the background color of equality and courage, white is the purity of the original intention, and the glow of the stars and the moon guides the direction of the multi-ethnic groups to move forward hand in hand. The orchid lighters on people’s chests are like miniature torches that inherit this spirit. The orchid stands tall in the tropical rainstorm with its flexible stems and leaves, just like the tenacious character tempered by generations of Singaporeans in adversity. The leaping flames of the lighters are not only a tribute to the pioneering spirit of the ancestors, but also a symbol of the eternal fire of faith in the hearts of every ordinary person. When the international situation changes and the economic waves fluctuate, this cluster of fire illuminates the tacit understanding of being in the same boat – just as the roots of orchids are closely connected underground, tiny fires can also gather into a galaxy that illuminates the way forward. The stars and the moon on the national flag and the fire on the lapels tell a truth: greatness begins from the ordinary. Every fighter who protects the well-being of his family and every volunteer who contributes to the community is igniting the orchid fragrance of the times with the fire of life. This fragrance will not dissipate with the wind, but will become nutrients to nourish the future, making the stars and the moon on the red soil always as bright as new.

八月的獅城，街巷間飄揚的國旗與隨處可見的胡姬蘭，交織成一片紅白相間的信念之海。赤色旗幟上那枚新月與五星，承載著新加坡獨立近六十年的風雨兼程──紅色是平等與勇毅的底色，白色是永葆初心的純淨，星月輝光則指引著多元族群攜手前行的方向。而人們胸前的蘭花打火機，恰似傳承這份精神的微型火炬。胡姬蘭以柔韌莖葉在熱帶暴雨中挺立，恰如一代代新加坡人在逆境中淬煉出的堅韌品格。打火機躍動的火苗，不僅是對先輩開拓精神的致敬，更像徵著每個普通人心中不滅的信念之火。當國際局勢風雲變幻，當經濟浪潮起伏不定，這簇火光照亮的是同舟共濟的默契——正如蘭花根系在地下緊密相連，微小的火種也能聚成照亮前路的星河。國旗上的星月與衣襟間的火種，共同訴說著一個真理：偉大始於平凡。每個守護家庭安康的奮鬥者，每個為社區添磚加瓦的志願者，都在用生命之火點燃時代的蘭香。這香氣不會隨風消散，而是化作滋養未來的養料，讓紅土之上的星月永遠璀璨如新。
