Eunos CC CDEC Appreciation Night

28 May 2009

The event is held at East Coast Hua Yu Wee (华友园) where more than 100 grassroots leaders attended. The Civil Defence Executive Committees in Singapore would be dissolved and merge with the Emergency Preparedness Group to form the C2E - Community Emergency and Engagement Committee. To appreciate the efforts of the grassroots leaders who have contributed to the success of Eunos CDEC, a dinner is held.

A video compilation was screened to play tribute to the CDEC volunteers, followed by a slideshow depicting the activities of Eunos CDEC over the past years. Tokens of appreciation were also presented to the committee members as well as supporting agencies by the Guest-of-Honour, Mayor Zainul Abidin Rasheed.

Eunos CDEC Chairman Mr Pang Loo Seng PBM hosted a short game. Each table had 3 sets of worksheets which dictated the tasks of the game. Enthusiastic participants quickly followed the instructions and started scribbling on the sheets. Little did they know that the last instruction was to ignore the previous tasks. The moral of the game was to highlight the importance of staying calm and looking at the big picture during crisis.

Eunos CDEC members then presented a song item - entitled "我在你左右". It was translated, literally, to an English song as well - entitled "I Am Beside You". Mayor joined in and sang the English version.

The Karaoke session then commenced, with Mayor closing the session with his signature Hokkien song "爱拼才会赢".
