Lee Hsien Loong Instagram – Today, the Sikhs celebrate Vesakhi. The Tamils celebrate Puthandu tomorrow. Other Indian ethnic communities such as the Bengalis and Malayalees also celebrate their respective New Years around this time.
The @centralsikhgurdwaraboard, @indianheritage_sg and @officiallishasg have organised events to mark this festive period.
Different communities have celebrated and commemorated multiple religious events in the past few weeks, reflecting our unique and diverse multiracial and multireligious society. Do take time to learn more about these festivals, and join in if friends or neighbours invite you to celebrate with them. This is the Singaporean way!
I wish all who are celebrating a joyous and prosperous year ahead! – LHL
