The National Day Rally (Malay: Rapat Umum Hari Kebangsaan; Chinese: 国庆群众大会; pinyin: Guóqìng Qúnzhòng Dàhuì; Tamil: தேசிய தின பேரணி) is an annual message delivered by the Prime Minister of Singapore to the entire nation, on the first or second Sunday after National Day on 9 August.[1] Started in 1966, the national day rally is Singapore's equivalent of the President of the United States’s State of the Union address. The prime minister uses the rally to review the country’s status, its key challenges, as well as to set the country's direction, major policy changes, the economy, future plans and achievements. Also, the prime minister only does the rally speech In English, Chinese and Malay, not in Tamil.[2]
