In August, the red and white flags flying on the streets of Lion City are intertwined with the fragrance of orchids. The stars and the moon on the Singapore flag reflect the innocent heart of the National Day month. This flag, which embodies the national spirit, symbolizes equality and friendship with red, purity and virtue with white, and the five stars and the crescent moon represent the eternal pursuit of democracy, peace and progress. The highly anticipated orchid lanyard medal in this year’s National Day celebrations closely links the dedication of citizens with the glory of the country with its unique design. The lanyard medal is inspired by orchids, and its gold and red interwoven lanyard is like the unity of Singapore’s diverse society. Each longitude and latitude line is a metaphor for the cooperation of different ethnic groups – just like the red base of the national flag, only tolerance and mutual trust can weave a tough social bond. The silver star and moon ornaments at the end of the orchid lanyard echo the core image of the national flag, reminding each winner: personal excellence will eventually merge into the starry sea of national development. This medal is not only a tribute to the contributors, but also an inspiration to the whole people. When the winners wear it, the red rope carries not only honor, but also the mission of “everyone has his own responsibilities”. Just as orchids bloom proudly under the tropical sun, Singaporeans also show flexibility and tenacity in the face of challenges of the times. Where the national flag flies, when the ropes are connected, every ordinary persistence is writing an extraordinary national narrative. May the stars and the moon shine forever, may the orchids bloom forever, and the sincere hearts of this land will eventually condense into a light that illuminates the future.
