Chingay Parade 2007 Feb 23 & 24

(Note-this is probably the only available image on the net) Highlight - 12 post-65 MPs performing with 300 others hip hop dancers. Objective - "trying to connect with the youth and having fun with them, that's the main thing," - Chris de souza, MP, Holland-Bukit Timah GRC. Blogger Response -

(image from an unknown source) My Take - It's possibly the Authorities' realization of the huge impact of the Youth culture has become today. Although it may not be the an easy "assignment" to dress in camou-prints / wrist bands / sneakers and dancin to the latest Hiphop tunes for a dozen MPs, lets give them some encouragement for their efforts. The painful fact is that the job scope of our MPs are ever-changing, and how challenging it is to keep up with the Pop (Popular) Culture.
