Organisations and businesses in the Indian community will come together to pay tribute to SM Lee Hsien Loong with an appreciation dinner on Oct 10 at 7pm at the Marina Bay Sands main ballroom.
The event will highlight the achievements of the former prime minister and pay tribute to his service to Singapore which spans over five decades – in particular his keen interest in the Indian community and participation in countless Indian events over the years.
“SM Lee has been PM for 20 years and in those years, he has given his time and attention to all ethnic communities of Singapore,” said Mr R. Ravindran, chairman of the organising committee.
“He understood the diversity of the Indian community well and supported us in many ways. It’s time for us to pay tribute to his excellent leadership and say thank you.”
During the dinner, organisers will honour the 72-year-old through a showcase of his many passions – photography, for example – as well as his strong support for the arts, culture, language and tradition and his belief that people should have the freedom to pursue unconventional ideas.
The dinner is open to all Indian organisations, who may book a table for up to 10 persons. Each table costs $2,000 and is available on a first-come-first-served basis.
Individuals who wish to attend must go through an Indian organisation.
To book a table, please contact hariibmc@gmail.com or via phone on 62953258 and 97913001.
