NDP timed to precision of cos can be nice to see... bt anybody ever recalled & accounted how much tax payer's $ pumped into the event itself? the costs for logistics for all the training, rehearsels & actual day itself is alraedy a heaping amount. manpower is cheap cos they exploit usage of NSF, as well as getting schools involved.
let's nt 4get the hours of flight chalked by the pilots, the stunts & flight manouver drills... expensive deal. dun 4get, our jets arent using 98 / 95 / 92 unleaded... neither do they use diesel. jet fuel is a whole lot more expensive.
the fireworks too arent cheap, each time they sound off 1 regardless big or small. we should be hearing cash register ring. so for the fireworks display... we should be hearing cash register ringing non-stop for the 15-20min display.
at the end of the day, who r the real heroes??? sgporeans... cos we're the biggest sponsor over n above the main & co-sponsors for the event.
