What will I defend - Lee Ming Han (15)

My name is Lee Ming Han and I am currently studying in Maris Stella High School in class Secondary 2 Francis. I would strive to protect and defend my family, friends, and country in times of threat and crisis.

 The reason I would protect my family is because they have done so much for me, giving me support to do what is best, raising me up into a healthy person and to groom me to become what I am today. I would protect my friends because when I am having troubles I know that I have friends to confide. Friends also encourage and cheer me up when I am in low spirits. When my life is at it’s lowest I know I have my friends that will be there for me. I would defend my country, Singapore, as this is where my home is, where I grew up and lived in for fourteen years, where my friends and family is and where all my great memories are. Singapore has also provided me with the best education she has to offer and living in Singapore has never been any safer. 

I agree with Shaun Lau on protecting the environment, as without a proper and clean environment we will not be able to enjoy viewing the scenery of the beautiful garden city.
