第1篇 新加坡总理李显龙2019年新年英语演讲稿

my fellow singaporeans:

what were your most memorable moments of 2019? for me, four moments in particularstood out.

the first was on 29 march, when we sent off our founding prime minister mr lee kuan yew.singaporeans lined the streets to bid him a final farewell. the rain was pouring. as the guncarriage left parliament house, people shouted his name. i was deeply moved to see everyone’sfaces – drenched, grieving, but not downcast. we were one people, grateful for what ourpioneers had achieved, resolved to take singapore further forward.

the second moment was the weekend of 4 july. over three days, i attended five events – ansg50 catholic mass; the jubilee day of prayer organised by protestant churches; a harmony indiversity concert organised by the taoist federation and new creation church; and two iftars –one in al-ansar mosque, and another organised by jalan kayu grassroots organisations as partof a racial harmony night. together, the events reflected the diversity of our society, ourracial and religious harmony, and the singapore identity which we have built over the past 50years.

my third moment was on 9 august, when we celebrated our golden jubilee at the padang. itwas not just the scale of the mobile column and fly-past, but the singapore story told throughthe lives of ordinary singaporeans past and present. that is why when our pioneer soldiersmarched past, we gave them our loudest cheer.

schoolchildren in led costumes put up an energetic and spectacular performance to endthe show on a high note. they reminded me why we are building singapore and gave meconfidence that they can chase their own rainbows and take singapore higher and further.

the fourth moment was on 11 september, polling day of the general elections. which directionwould singapore go? which team would we choose to lead us forward?

as the results came in, i felt gratified and happy that voters had delivered a big win forsingapore. we were united in our desire to secure our shared future, to achieve the best forsingapore. as i joined our supporters at toa payoh stadium that night, i took a photo of asupporter who had brought her baby along to share this historic moment. it encapsulated whatthe election was about – our people and our future.

why did i find these four moments memorable?

because they showed the world – and ourselves – what a determined and united people cando; why singapore is a shining red dot. despite the threats of isis and jihadist terrorism, whenother societies are troubled by intolerance and racial tensions, here in singapore we rejoicein our multi-racial harmony. where other countries are mired in political gridlock andpessimistic for the next generation, we in singapore are united, hopeful and confident aboutour future.

but most of all, these were moments when we came together, and took responsibility for oneanother. we wept, we sang, we celebrated, we bonded together, and emerged stronger as oneunited people.

as sg50 ends, the next chapter of the singapore story begins. we live in a very different worldfrom our pioneers fifty years ago. yes, we have many more opportunities in the globalisedworld, but we also face fiercer competition. yes, we have more resources, but we also havehigher aspirations. our economy is slowing down and undergoing transition. we cannot expectan easy journey ahead.

but the journey can be every bit as exciting as the first 50 years. because we know that comewhat may – challenges, disappointments and sorrows – we will be here for one another. we willcelebrate our successes together, because we know we can only succeed together. the futureof us exhibition gives us a glimpse of the future we can have. through the sgfutureconversations, we will all play a part in writing the singapore story.

our future is for us to make together, and i look forward to travelling the road ahead with youtogether.

happy new year!

第2篇 伊丽莎白二世在欢迎新加坡总统陈庆炎英语演讲稿

mr. president,

prince philip and i are delighted to welcome you and your wife to buckingham palace thisevening.

our two nations enjoy a rich, shared history dating back to when sir stamford raffles landed insingapore almost two centuries ago.

how right he was when he said, “it would be difficult to name a place on the face of the earthwith brighter prospects”.

his name lives on in singapore through schools, hospitals and, of course, raffles hotel, whereprince philip and i stayed on our state visit in 2019.

then, as in our earlier visits, we received a warm welcome from the people of your country, ashave other members of my family, most recently my grandson william and his wife.

your visit to the united kingdom marks the continued deepening of the relationship betweenour countries.

although this is the first state visit from singapore, you attended both the opening ceremoniesof the olympic games in london in 2019, and the commonwealth games in glasgow earlier thisyear, and your prime minister has visited the united kingdom on many occasions.

as well as a common heritage, our countries share a wealth of common interests.

as two of the leading financial services centres in the world, we are significant investors in eachother’s countries.

our interests also extend to defence and security.

ships of the royal navy have been regular visitors to singapore and our armed forces haveserved together on peacekeeping operations around the world.

underpinning all this is a shared belief in openness and free trade, and a world founded onjustice, fairness and international law.

mr. president, your visit is an opportunity to celebrate the links between our two countries,developed over almost two centuries.

but it is also a chance to highlight common future interests, especially in education, researchand innovation, the building of cultural ties and the deepening of the bonds between ourpeople.

the places you will visit during your stay reflect both our common heritage and our futurepriorities.

for example, it was kew gardens that supplied the first rubber seedlings to be cultivated inthe singapore botanic gardens in the 1870s.

and today imperial college is helping to train a new generation of singaporean doctors, justone of many important partnerships that it and other u.k. universities are building withsingapore.

i am pleased to note that, in honour of your visit, the royal commonwealth society ofsingapore is to be re-established; and that the re-founded society will foster new scholarshipsto the u.k. for singaporeans.

and on the international stage, through our respective membership of the european union andthe association of southeast asian nations, and our collective membership of thecommonwealth, there is the scope to pursue common values and interests, to our mutualbenefit.

mr. president, next year singapore marks an important milestone in its remarkable history,the 50th anniversary of independence.

it is a pleasure to celebrate that upcoming golden anniversary with you this evening.

looking back at half a century of cooperation, and ahead to new chapters in our story, it isclear that our countries remain firm friends.

i have no doubt that by maintaining longstanding commitments to openness, fairness andenterprise, this friendship will not only be sustained but will flourish and thrive.

ladies and gentlemen i ask you to rise and drink a toast to the president and people ofsingapore.
