From local flavours to familiar sights, companies across the Hong Leong Group came together to celebrate Singapore’s rich heritage and diverse culture.
Celebrating Singapore’s
61st Birthday
Across The
Hong Leong
Group Of Companies
What makes Singapore, Singapore?
It could be the hum of footsteps through the CBD, the nostalgic crunch of a packet of kacang puteh, or the familiar comfort of laksa, satay, and chicken rice. Or perhaps it is found in the stories of the everyday people who built this nation.
This National Day, our companies brought these familiar sights, sounds, flavours and stories to life across the Group — from our buildings to our hotels and restaurants. Here are some of the moments that captured the spirit of the celebrations.
City Developments Limited
The familiar sounds of the CBD — footsteps, lift chimes and keyboards — come together to capture the everyday rhythm of Singapore.
Hong Leong Holdings Limited
Hong Leong Building joins the National Day celebrations with Singapore flags adorning its façade, adding a touch of red and white to the cityscape.

Singapore’s red-and-white colours take over Princess Terrace at Copthorne King’s Hotel Singapore, with NDP-themed decorations creating a festive setting for diners.
Grand Copthorne Waterfront Hotel Singapore
A heritage-inspired display at Grand Copthorne Waterfront Hotel Singapore brings the stories of the Samsui women to life, alongside a traditional trishaw cart featuring kacang puteh.

M Social and Studio M Hotel Singapore celebrate with familiar local flavours, from a Singapore Burger to a National Day Set featuring laksa, chicken rice and satay.
Celebrating The Singapore We Know
While each company celebrated differently, the occasions shared a common thread of bringing Singapore culture and stories into the places where we work, stay, and dine. From the stories of generations past to food, these celebrations reflect the many things that make Singapore home.
