The Housing & Development Board (HDB) is working with the McDonald's
fast-food chain on a jointly organised fun run to be held during the
official opening of HDB's Punggol Waterway this Sunday.
The
event aims to foster community spirit through various activities, such
as the waterway run. So far, response has been encouraging, with 900
sign-ups within the first three days of registration.
Highlights
will include an official opening by Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong, as
well as games, merchandise stalls, performances and pyrotechnics.
Dr
Cheong Koon Hean, CEO of HDB, said, "HDB does not just provide housing
alone. HDB also cares about bringing communities together. A fun run
like this is a great way to get our residents to enjoy activities and to
get to know each other. And now that we have a beautiful venue like
Punggol Waterway, I am looking forward to more of such community events
in the future."
Looking ahead, both HDB and McDonald's will
collaborate on other projects to encourage community participation and
healthy living in Singapore.
