Why this petition matters

Started by Abby See

[DO NOT DONATE. NO MONETARY ACTIONS NEEDED.]

This is a petition for a cancellation of the Singapore National Day Parade (NDP) 2021 due to COVID-19 restrictions.

With the rising cases of COVID-19, the continuation of this public event does not make any sense. This event is clearly non-essential during a pandemic. 

“Social gatherings should be a maximum of 5 people.” - Government. Even if NDP is not considered a “social gathering” it is still a mass-scale gathering. There are thousands in this event. Audiences too should not even be there, vaccinated or not.

“Stay at home.” - Government. So why the need for NDP? 

This public event contradicts everything the government has told their people to practice.

EDITED (added): As the people have spoken, this event will surely gather crowds around the vicinity. That is what we all want to avoid. Social distancing will be a challenge as many families will be there. Yes, National Day is important, and we have to celebrate it. But let’s not risk the lives of our people over a parade which can be done after the pandemic.

Cancel Singapore National Day Parade (NDP) 2021, or it MAY become the next big cluster.
