Have a Singapore flag displayed

outside your home to celebrate

National Day?

Remember to keep it by tomorrow,

as after Wednesday (September 30th),

you can be fined up to $1,000 under

Singapore law.

Every year, the flag can be displayed

outside a building or in an open space

without a flagpole between July 1 and Sept 30.

This arrangement was made for the

National Day celebrations in August!

Earlier this year, the timeframe was

brought forward to April 25th, for Singaporeans

to show a sign of unity in the COVID-19 pandemic.

However, the end date of this timeframe was

still set on September 30th.

The reason for not allowing year-round

displays is to make sure that the flag

does not suffer from prolonged wear

and tear, which can happen after

periods of neglect.

Update : Minister for Culture, Community and Youth

and Second Minister for Law Edwin Tong

has since taken to Facebook to clarify

that there are no plans to uphold the

specific law.

 

It seems we can fly our flags proudly

after all!
