In view of what MM Lee has told us yesterday in parliament that our pledge is merely an "aspiration", henceforth, the new pledge will be now written as :
OUR PLEDGE
We, the citizens of Singapore,
aspire to be one united people,
regardless of race, language or religion,
aspire to build a democratic society
based on justice and equality
so as to aspire to achieve happiness, prosperity and progress for our nation.
