Racial Harmony Day: Singapore's cultural diversity unites, not divides, says PM Wong
Prime Minister Lawrence Wong says one of Singapore's strengths is that its cultural diversity brings people together, rather than drives them apart. In his Racial Harmony Day message posted online, he says that it is the result of generations of Singaporeans choosing respect over prejudice, and understanding over suspicion. Meanwhile, schools across Singapore celebrated Racial Harmony Day, with activities reinforcing the values of mutual understanding and respect that underpin the nation's multicultural society.
