SINGAPORE : Members of the public are invited to SMS their views on
the National Day Rally Speech in English, Malay and Chinese.
Feedback unit REACH wants to engage more Singaporeans on national
issues, and it hopes the inclusion of Chinese SMS text capability
will encourage more heartlanders to respond.
Between August 19 and 25, the public can send their views to
9-77325-87 (or 9-SPEAK-UP).
They can start to do so during the live telecast of the National
Day Rally speech.
They can also register with REACH to voice their opinions at an
online discussion on August 21.
The e-Townhall will be chaired by Minister of State for Education
Rear-Admiral (NS) Lui Tuck Yew, and Chairman of the REACH Panel, Dr
Amy Khor.
And for the first time, overseas Singaporeans are also invited to
email their feedback to REACH, and take part in the
e-Townhall.
