Haze Over Southern Sea 1: Dawn at the Lion City
雾锁南洋之狮城拂晓 - 孙振福
人世间曾有多少离合悲欢
生命中曾有几许无奈沧桑
雾起在南方 雾落在南方
朝阳可曾藏心坎

过去的记忆你是否已经遗忘
祖先的流离可曾使你惆怅
雾起在南方 雾落在南方
重重迷雾锁南洋

望远方天水茫茫
浓雾中何处是家乡
向远方冲过险滩
浓雾散见我新家乡

过去的记忆世代不可遗忘
祖先的流离使我生命更坚强
雾起在南方 雾落在南方
重重迷雾锁南洋

This is Singapore Broadcasting Corporation (SBC)'s all-time classic: The Awakening Part I.

Truly a very Singaporean Singapore song. Best is, it does not sound "preachy" at all, unlike other Singapore songs, such as: "Count on me, Singapore", "Stand up for Singapore", and the most recent "Shine for Singapore". In fact, not only the title, but the lyrics of this Singapore song does not even contain the word "Singapore"! Yet, I count this as among the best Singapore song ever!

This is an educational video, aimed at introducing a Singapore song - a real classic - to new foreign students studying in Singapore and pupils holding Singapore permanent resident (SPR) cards in primary schools, secondary schools (including the Independent Schools (IS) and those in the Integrated Programme (IP)), junior colleges (JC) and the polytechnics. It is especially recommended for viewing after the Primary School Leaving Examination (PSLE), or the two Semestral Assessments (SA1 and SA2), or the two Continual Assessments (CA1 and CA2), where there are ample time for some Civics and Moral Education (CME). The importance of National Education (NE) cannot be overemphasized, as the Ministry of Education (MOE) has emphasized many times. Students of the National University of Singapore (NUS), Nanyang Technological University (NTU) and Singapore Management University (SMU) should also view this video, especially if they are under various MOE or Public Service Comission (PSC) scholarships or the edusave scheme.

Foreign Talents (FT) and other not-so-talented foreigners working at Fusionpolis, Biopolis and the other "polis" of various A*STAR organisations may be interested to infuse themselves with some knowledge of Singapore songs too.

Majulah Singapura!
Happy National Day, Singapore!
Let us all shine for Singapore!
May Singapore always be 晴空万里!

  • Mr. lee earned respect for what he is doing for singapore.....u earned none for doing this....why don u stand up and speak in public about ur unhappiness? then maybe ppl will respect u for ur courage......i am disappointed to see u, a singaporean,who claimed to love SG acting like this.

  • Lee is despised for what he did to Sg - turning the most democratic metropolitan city in Asia in 1965 (not fishing village - stop daydreaming) into a dictatorial billion-losing LEEgime with 1 suicide/day and 1st in Asia to go into recession.

    Running dogs prefer us to be in sg where their ISD can put us in jail. So they try to portray patriots who speak up for Sg from the outside, in a bad light. Cheap tricks.

    I am disappointed with u for loving PAP instead of SG:

  • jiang83,

    pls show some disgust for someone i.e. LKY, who has destroyed so much of what our forefathers and what other old guards of PAP have done for our Singapore. If u don't just keep it in your mind and don't try to be a running dog to carry balls for the disorder and sadness that SIngapore is now facing. If you find other countries welcome ball-carriers like you, pls do seek shelter there. We, patriots of Singapore, do not welcome you in OUR Singapore.

  • jiang83,

    U want to chase us out of OUR country? U got something wrong with ur brain! Please go have your brain check! You are under the delusion that you own Sg and therefore can chase others out. Get it into your delusional brain: you do NOT own Sg. You are not fit to chase us out of OUR country. In fact, ball-carriers like you are traitors of Sg and not fit to call yourself S'poreans. Leave!

    If u find my response too harsh, next time, rem u are not fit to tell others to leave THEIR country.

  • harryteo88: Pls do respect someone who has done so much for our singapore. If u dont, just keep in ur mind and dont disturb the peace and happines Singapore is having. If u find that other countries are having more freedom and better, pls do seek shelter there.

  • I support u wendy! All the way!

  • A Machiavellian like LKY manipulates the minds of people to suit his will. tts why the older generation of s'poreans generally respect LKY. There nothing you can do unless you can find a way to get rid of PAP and end the suffering of singaporeans. Perhaps we should engage the US, ask them to invade sg and get rid of the Lees, juz like hw they gt rid of saddam. Hope no one suit me for libel :p

  • he is just expressing himself in a creative way.

  • OMG! i vet through what i typed, but didn't find any ' I LOVE PAP' in my comment.....so don put words in my mouth!!

  • Why did you say this video is an "insult"? Which part is insulting? Everything in this video is a fact. Stating a fact is not insulting. Unless you think it is ok to jail Chee and JBJ and for our judges to act as doggies - which is what this video is abt

    Where is your sense of justice and morality? I just hope to clarify things: are you for justice or not?

  • Yes, it was PAP who brought Sg to what we are and wat we have now: highest paid politicians in the world, highest GINI coefficient, 1 suicide/day, 80 yr old clearing plates at hawker centres, no retirement...

    Are u a PSC overseas scholar from the gifted stream? If not, you have an artificial glass ceiling set by PAP such that you can never climb to the top no matter how talented you are. Why are you defending the very people who are enslaving you? *amused*

  • Why are you comparing with "our neighbours" when LKY's salary is higher than Canada + USA + UK + Japan + Germany + France + Spain + Italy COMBINED? Has Sg reached the standard of these countries COMBINED? If not, LKY does not deserve the salary and he has leegalised corruption. Why do you have a problem insulting a corrupted leader?

  • if the opp people are leading, we would have been a MUCH better nation than our neighbours and the proof is simple: go read up on past Singapore's opposition such as Lim and Chia:

    watch?v=CpJi_1f3uKw

    watch?v=gCGLaiKFaX8

    Read up also on excerpts of Chee's book on his SDP website. A clear reading show that we would have been better under the opposition.

  • As a S'porean who love Singapore, I believe this is the right thing to do - to criticise a govt that has led S'pore from the centre of South East Asia in 1965 (Sg was no fishing village then. Don't be taken in by PAP's propaganda) to the 1st country in Asia to go into recession recently. LKY is NOT the founding father of Sg - He is a traitor who betrayed Lim Chin Siong, the real PM of S'pore. Why won't you insult a traitor?

  • No. It's from another channel 8 show: Haze Over Southern Sea 1: Dawn at the Lion City 雾锁南洋之狮城拂晓

  • isnt this the song from the last time channel 8 sumsui women show??? i think so.

  • As a S'porean, I believe that this is not e right thing to do. Insulting e govt who have led S'pore through e hard times. LKY is one of e founding father of S'pore and how can you, as a S'porean, insult him and PAP? Imagine, if e opposition people are leading, will we have our stand as one of the better nation compared to our neighbours? I'm not trying to say tt e opposition are bad, however, I just hope to clarify things, it's PAP who brought S'pore to what we are & what we have now.

  • UY did it like 10 years ago actually. He was one of our first cyber activists.

  • Uncle Yap. Click on "more info".

  • WOW!! who did this graphics? very good!

  • actually he meant kangaroo court owner

    not that he wanna insult kangaroo.

  • Wah.....PAP people become Kun Klux Klan already yah!

  • To Singapore Channel,

    Please do not insult the kangaroo. They are actually very nice animal who take care of their young. The comaprison is simply not fair.
