What Will You Defend? online video contest

Come February 2009, Singapore will be commemorating 25 years of Total Defence. In the past 25 years, Total Defence has helped to build confidence among Singaporeans in facing and overcoming present and future challenges, and protecting what we love in Singapore.

Tell Singapore what you will defend via a short video clip of less than 2 minutes, and you could win yourself attractive prizes. In pairs or threes, record snippets of our Singapore way of life that you will defend. Potentially winning moments such as scenes of first day back at school, the school sports teams triumphing over the competition at inter-school competitions, or colourful ceremonies to commemorate special occasions in school are all possible subjects of "what you will defend" in Singapore.

As winning entries are selected via public voting, remember to keep your videos Relevant (tell us what you will defend), Creative (tell us a good story) and Compelling (make us cry or laugh).
