NDP 2006 Logo (Text Almost Completed Lifted!)

"This year's logo embraces our theme 'Our Global City, Our Home'. It depicts a globe with the little red island of Singapore as its focal point. Despite our small size, our island is widely recognized for its thriving economy, its connectivity to the world and its emerging role on the international stage. The use of multi-colored brushstrokes demonstrates our vibrancy as a nation. The merging of the different colors into one icon connotes our unity and harmony as a multi-racial and multi-religious society. The treatment of the brushstrokes gives the logo an Asian feel. It denotes that while Singapore is evolving into a global city, we do not forget our roots and Asian values. The futuristic font shows our boldness and that we are forward looking in shaping our future as a nation."
