The SDP's Hong Lim Park Countdown on the New Year Eve was a time of celebration and a moment of reflection of what went on in year 2008 and what's in store the next.
The event began with a simple dinner of hot dogs and chips served by the SDP members and Friends of SDP. Year 2008 could not pass without remembering the passing away of a friend and loyal servant of this nation, the late Joshua Benjamin Jeyaretnam (JBJ). There was a New Year's Wish Board where people wrote and posted their wishes and resolutions for 2009. Freedom songs as well as songs of tribute to JBJ. There was also a giant candlelight display with the words "Free Singapore" visible from the higher floor of the nearby Furama Hotel.
The event finished with a countdown to 2009 and ushered in the New Year with lots of light sticks and more songs.

Awesome Words
“Throughout history it has been the inaction of those who could have acted, the indifference of those who should have known better, the silence of the voice of justice when it mattered most, that has made it possible for evil to triumph.”
