]]>

As Singapore celebrates its 60th birthday, this year’s National Day is going beyond the Padang – and SAFRA is leading the way! 

This August, Singapore’s spirit will rise high over the skyline and through the heartlands as SAFRA spearheads a National Day celebration that is not just a party, but a proud tribute to 60 years of nationhood by bringing the nation’s biggest birthday bash to the Bayfront Event Space at Marina Bay, making the festivities more accessible, more vibrant, and more meaningful for NSmen, their families, and the wider public. 

Feel The Vibrant Heartbeat 

In a bold and meaningful move, SAFRA’s “Vibrant Heartbeat” themed celebration – SAFRA Bayfront National Day Celebration – brings together live music, community pride, and national unity at the Bayfront Event Space at Marina Bay. As an extension to this celebration, all seven SAFRA clubs islandwide will also have additional activities, culminating in a joyous occasion for all SAFRA members and Singaporeans.

On 2 and 9 August 2025, the Bayfront will pulse with colour and rhythm as it transforms into a celebratory hub for thousands. Before the parade begins, audiences will be treated to live performances by celebrated homegrown groups like Jumpstart, a bilingual pop-rock band known for their powerful vocals and diverse style, and yIN Harmony, which fuses Chinese, Indian, and Japanese flutes to reflect Singapore’s rich multicultural heritage.  

From 6pm, the excitement builds with a live NDP 2025 screening on towering LED screens, creating a truly immersive experience. Spectators at the Bayfront will also enjoy front-row views of iconic NDP spectacles such as the State Flag Flypast, a breathtaking fireworks display across the city skyline, and a special aerial tribute by the Republic of Singapore Air Force (RSAF) in honour of SG60. 

Among the brand-new highlights this year is the “Jump of Unity” featuring naval divers from the Republic of Singapore Navy descending dramatically at the Bay – a powerful symbol of strength and solidarity. Audiences can also look forward to a visually stunning maritime display as part of the ceremonial segments.

Stay For The Post-Parade Celebration Vibes 

Once the parade ends, the celebration amps up again with a post-parade party featuring the energetic Urban Drum Crew, who have performed in over 15 countries, and DJ Tinc, whose electrifying sets and vocals promise to keep the crowd’s spirits on a high. 

For those celebrating in the heartlands, all SAFRA clubs – Choa Chu Kang, Jurong, Mount Faber, Punggol, Tampines, Toa Payoh and Yishun – will come alive with NDP screenings on 9 August, together with traditional games, pop-up food stalls, and sing-along sessions. There will also be island-hopping tours to Kusu Island, Pulau Ubin, St John’s and more, alongside a photography competition to celebrate Singapore’s natural and cultural treasures. All SAFRA members should stay tuned for more information at the SAFRA Clubs’ Facebook pages and the SAFRA website if you would like to register for these activities.  

As BG (NS) Kenneth Liow, Director of National Service Affairs and Chairman of the organising committee, aptly puts it, “Marking SG60, this year’s celebrations will hold great meaning for all Singaporeans and our national servicemen who have safeguarded Singapore’s peace and security for decades.” 

Whether you’re dancing by the Bay, playing chapteh with neighbours, or snapping photos of our island’s beauty, SAFRA’s SG60 festivities are a heartfelt reminder of what it means to be Singaporean – resilient, diverse, and united. Join in, and let’s make this milestone birthday a celebration to remember. 

This vibrant festival is set to be the biggest community celebration SAFRA has ever brought to the Marina Bay. So you do not want to miss this! 

How To Attend: Tickets and Balloting (26 June – 4 July 2025) 

SAFRA members and NSmen who ballot successfully will be able to enjoy the full show alongside their loved ones. 

Balloting is open to all SAFRA members, Singaporeans and Permanent Residents from 26 June, 12pm, to 4 July 2025, 12pm. Each applicant can ballot for 2 or 4 tickets. All successful applicants will be notified by 10 July 2025 via SMS and email. 

Visit www.safra.sg/BayfrontNationalDayCelebration for more information on the event and for the balloting link. 

Your National Day, Your Celebration 

As Singapore turns 60, this celebration is all about inclusivity, unity, and community. Whether you’re watching the parade with your family, bonding with your kids amidst the festivities, or celebrating into the night with your best buddies – this is your National Day. 

SAFRA Bayfront National Day Celebration is more than an event. It’s about bringing Singaporeans together – across generations, backgrounds, and roles – for a shared moment of pride, joy, and unity. 

This August, let’s make new memories under the Marina Bay skyline. Let’s celebrate Singapore the SAFRA way.

Finding It Hard To Make New Friends? Here Are 6 Ways To Grow Your Social Circle https://nsman.safra.sg/finding-it-hard-to-make-new-friends-here-are-6-ways-to-grow-your-social-circle/ Tue, 30 Jul 2024 02:00:06 +0000 https://nsman.safra.sg/?p=27746 Ideas to form new friendships and nurture your current ones.

The post Finding It Hard To Make New Friends? Here Are 6 Ways To Grow Your Social Circle appeared first on eNSMAN.

]]>

Loneliness is a huge problem that can have far-reaching effects. Last November, the World Health Organization declared loneliness to be a pressing global health threat, linking it with an increased risk of developing dementia, coronary heart disease and stroke. Loneliness can also leave young people feeling socially isolated, which may impact their emotional wellbeing and contribute to serious mental health conditions like depression and anxiety. 

Conversely, having close friends gives us a sense of belonging and purpose, makes us feel more confident, improves our mood, enriches our lives, and boosts our happiness. 

So, how do we go about making new friends and nurturing the friendships we already have, especially if we are always busy or don’t always feel comfortable putting ourselves out there? 

The International Day of Friendship on 30 July is a great occasion to think about the different ways to expand your social circle and make space in your life for new people who can help you grow as an individual. 

Here are six to start with. 

1. Seek out people with similar interests

Seek out people with similar interests

When you find people who share the same interests as you, you’ll find it easier to connect with them, says June Wee-Grant, a life and modern leadership coach. She suggests making a list of activities you enjoy or have always wanted to try, and then joining a group or club that lets you meet people who love doing those same things. 

“They could start out as activity buddies at the very least, and these connections may eventually evolve into friendships,” she adds. 

It can be scary initiating conversations with complete strangers, but it’s important to take that first step. 

“Feeling vulnerable may actually be a good thing, because it can help warm other people up to you,” June says. 

“You could start the conversation by saying something like, ‘It’s my first time here and I don’t know anyone – what about you?’. 

“If that person is in the same boat as you, he may feel a sense of relief that he’s met you. On the other hand, if he’s familiar with others at the event, he may offer to introduce you to them and try to make you feel more at ease.” 

2. Catch up with old friends

Catch up with old friends

Many of us have friends from our school days whom we’re no longer in touch with. Perhaps their lives went in a completely different direction and you never crossed paths with them again. 

If you feel that you can pick up where you left off with them, then why not look them up and reach out to them? It may feel awkward at first, especially if you haven’t seen each other in a long time, but June says to be casual in your approach. Who knows, they may be thrilled to hear from you and agree to catch up with you over a meal or a drink. 

3. Do volunteer work

Do volunteer work

Volunteering is a great way to not only give back to your community, contribute to a special cause, learn new skills and improve your emotional wellbeing; it’s also a chance to meet new people and participate in a shared activity with them.  

Friendships take time to build, so even if you volunteer once or twice a month, you’ll have regular opportunities to spend time with fellow volunteers and nurture the bonds that you’ve created with them. 

Find out more about how volunteering can enrich your life.

4. Make new friends through the ones you already have

Make new friends through the ones you already have

If you are especially shy or don’t feel comfortable making new friends on your own, try joining the social circles of people you already know. That way, you won’t have to go through the process of looking for new people to hang out with, and, since you already know one person in the group, you’ll find it easier to open up and be yourself in front of the others. 

“Look at your friends and colleagues and identify the ones who are sociable and have a large network of friends,” says June. 

“Let them know that you’d like to tag along with them to some of their outings, so they’ll know to invite you in the future.”

5. Work on your current friendships

Work on your current friendships

Don’t let the friendships you have fall by the wayside. Many friendships die out because both sides never bothered to stay in touch or work on the connection. 

“Check in with your friends from time to time to find out how they’re doing, and plan things to do together,” June explains. 

For instance, schedule regular dinner dates, play your favourite sports and games, or organise a weekend road trip.

But remember, maintaining close friendships isn’t just about spending time together, June continues. It’s also about engaging with each other authentically. When you’re tuned in to the other person, you connect with them on a more meaningful and genuine level.

6. Become a SAFRA member

Joining SAFRA gives you the chance to access the perks and amenities of a club lifestyle, score the best deals and discounts in town, and obtain exclusive services.

Beyond that, it’s an easy and convenient way to meet new people and maintain friendships with your NS buddies, thanks to the various social, recreational, sports and educational events offered regularly at the clubhouses. There are also many interest groups you can join, from the Social Badminton Club and the Adventure Club, to the Tech Club, the Golfing Section, and the Travel Club.    

SAFRA Membership is open to all existing and former Singapore Armed Forces (SAF) NSmen, full-time National Servicemen (NSFs), SAF Regulars, Defence Executive Officers and their dependents.

8 Lesser-Known Reasons Why You Need A SAFRA Membership Today https://nsman.safra.sg/lesser-known-reasons-why-you-need-a-safra-membership/ Thu, 11 May 2023 10:00:48 +0000 https://nsman.safra.sg/?p=21117 A membership that comes with perks for almost all aspects of life!

The post 8 Lesser-Known Reasons Why You Need A SAFRA Membership Today appeared first on eNSMAN.

]]>

It is widely known that a SAFRA membership comes with a trove of savings, which includes cheaper booking fees for its many sport and entertainment facilities, generous discounts from more than 140 partner merchants as well as exclusive rewards you can redeem with your SAFRAPOINTS. But that’s not all!

Did you know that as a SAFRA member, you can enrol yourself in Singlife’s year-long Dengue Insurance Plan for free? SAFRA members can also book complimentary legal consultations with professional lawyers, enjoy enhanced staycation packages and so much more

For both uninitiated and existing SAFRA members, here are 8 lesser known but invaluable benefits that come with a SAFRA membership that will surely enrich your lives. But before that, get your complimentary-year long SAFRA membership while you still can!

1. Education sponsorship that is bond-free

Education isn’t cheap – that’s a fact. SAFRA’s bond-free education sponsorship scheme subsidises the cost of Diploma, Degree, Master courses across a myriad of local and private universities, which includes Singapore University of Social Sciences (SUSS) and James Cook University!  

Just for perspective, the tuition fee (excluding tax) for a full-time course at SUSS averages at $30,000 for Singapore citizens. For James Cook University, it will set you back at least $59,000 for any of its full-time programmes.

Did we mention that this education scholarship is bond-free as well? 

Applicants must have completed their full-time National Service and possess a valid SAFRA membership (Ordinary A, B or Life). The sponsorship has two yearly application periods, with the next beginning on 1 August 2023. So start applying away at safra.sg/promotions/bond-free-education-scheme!


2. Legal guidance for zero dollars

SAFRA members can sign up for free legal consultation sessions with lawyers who have volunteered their time to provide free legal information and professional guidance to SAFRA members. Since it began in 1994, more than 2,300 members have benefited. It may not seem much, until you realise that a typical consult with a lawyer goes for at least $100 per hour. All you need to qualify is a SAFRA membership.

The schedule be found at safra.sg/lifestyle/safra-legal-information-service. Appointment booking starts 1 month in advance from the date of the legal session.


3. Big discounts with big insurance coverages

Part of adulting is ensuring that both you and your loved ones are insured against uncertainty. Well, good news – SAFRA members are entitled to be covered under a free year-long Dengue Aid Insurance Plan provided by Singlife (You read that right – FREE). All you need is a SAFRA membership! This is in addition to a multitude of exclusive rates for a diverse range of insurance types, including term life and travel insurance. 

You can find the complete list of insurance deals at safra.sg/our-services/safra-insurance. Existing SAFRA members can sign up for the Dengue Aid Insurance Plan at safra.sg/promotions/Singlife


4. Special rates for enrichment classes

A SAFRA membership entitles you to exclusive rates and deals at more than 20 enrichment schools housed within the various clubhouses. And they aren’t just limited to academic guidance. You can find classes that cover swimming, arts and crafts, sports and dance – for both kids and adults – and many more listed here!

5. Exclusive wellness and medical packages

Great healthcare is an indispensable quality of life that everyone should have in theory. SAFRA has dedicated affiliations with over 100 reputable healthcare, wellness, and dental providers to ensure that proper care is both affordable, and accessible. Some of these include Raffles Medical, Eu Yan Sang TCM and Q&M Dental Group.

You can find the complete list of healthcare partners at safra.sg/promotions/healthcare-products-and-services


6. Great savings on automotive services

Owning a car is one thing. Maintaining it is a whole other affair that can get costly. A SAFRA Membership also comes with exclusive savings when you engage services from some of SAFRA’s partner automobile merchants, including polishing and washing services as well as car accessories.

Donate your NS55 Credits for a Cause

SAFRA Cares

If you would like to make a difference in someone’s life, why not donate to a worthy cause through SAFRA Cares and help the needy?

SAFRA Cares is a SAFRA initiative that aims to raise funds to help low income families and children.

Join us in our mission to bring practical help and give hope again to those who have lost it.

SAFRA Cares aims to channel 80% of funds collected to the diverse groups of beneficiaries under the President’s Challenge, especially those that support low income and vulnerable families, youths and children.

The remaining 20% of monetary donations are targeted to benefit severely disabled servicemen under the SAF Care Fund.

Other beneficiaries include charities and welfare organisations adopted by iconic SAFRA Cares events such as Swim For Hope and Let’s Gift For A Reason.

To donate your NS55 credits:

  1.  Launch your LifeSG app
  2.  Go to Benefits and Support –> NS55 credits –> View details
  3.  Tap on the blue “Scan QR code to pay” button and scan the QR Code below.
  4. Key in your desired amount, and you’re all set to proceed and donate!

Every dollar goes a long way towards helping the needy.

Thank you for your generosity.
