If i could protect anything, I would protect my parents. From the time i was born, they have been working hard and making countless sacrifices for me.They have instilled proper sense of right and wrong in me, and made me into the person I am today. I owe them everything, and it is only natural that i would defend them.After all, family first!:D

I want to defend my brother and sister! Being young, they cannot defend themselves and need someone else to protect them. I think Singaporeans are really really fortunate as we don't see children armed with weapons and fighting in wars. They should have a carefree childhood and not struggle in order to survive. I want my siblings to be living in a safe environment :)))))

I would like to defend nature in Singapore as Singapore is already a place being termed as a “concrete jungle” with many buildings and little nature. So, we should treasure the nature that is left in Singapore and hence; we would not live to regret about not having cherish the nature that we used to have in Singapore many years down the road.

Singapore is our nation and our main home. without singapore, we will not be living such a stable and high standard life. Singapore provide a roof over our heads and provide us with everything we need. it cares for our welfare, our well-being and everything. i love Singapore, thus i want to defend Singapore!

What i would defend.
The happiness of my family, friends and myself. With happiness comes hope, and i believe that with hope, one can achieve anything. Happiness improves the mental health of everyone and definitely should not be taken for granted, which unfortunately, many people do.

It makes life, unpleasant happenings and difficulties easier to live through, something that many people can not conquer because of the lack of hope, stemming from the lack of happiness. I am sure that with joy in one's life, nothing is very much impossible.

For such an important aspect of our life, shouldn't we defend it duly?

CULTURE + HISTORY:
Singapore is a budding country with our ancestors coming from many different countries and culture, resulting in Singapore being a multi-racial and harmonious country. The picture is just one if the many fine architectures that have still been preserved up till now. Without our roots, we would just be a country standing still with no progress. Without history, we would never learn from our past mistakes and always fall back into the past. Hence, i want to protect Singapore's culture and history so that we will always look back at our past and remember our ancestor's hard work. (:

I will defend our colourful life. The sunglasses are the perfect representation of what we see, on it is the reflection of our colourful life. For which to defend my colourful life and everyone else's is basically because life's precious and i treasure it. I believe everyone around me treasures his/her life as well! As such, there is a necessity to defend our colourful life since without it, we would not exist, much less have a significantly colourful one. It is indeed tough to imagine life in a black and white world. The most integral part is that life's important, so TREASURE IT, DEFEND IT, LIVE IT.

I will defend my family. Why? Because they have already given me everything i ever needed and without them, life would be difficult, meaningless and empty. I love my family.

I will defend water, our precious resource in Singapore. As we know, every drop of water counts. Thus, it is important for us to keep the wastage to the minimum and make good use of every drop in our everyday lives since it plays an essential role. Life without water is hard to imagine, just like when we failed to defend our country during the World War 2, partly due to the cut-off of our only water supply from Malaysia. Hence, we should actually be clearly aware of our daily wastage of water may cause a shortage. Put that aside, total defence day is a day for us to commemorate! So we shall do that first before saving water instead!

I want to defend my whole family, my friends and everything that means alot to me.

These four people in the picture are: my parents, my brother and myself!(when we were younger):D
My parents brought me up, brother helped me when I'm troubled,etc etc. No matter what happens, be it a natural disaster or even the cruel recession we're experiencing now, I'll defend them forever.

I will defend my house in Flanders' Drive, San Diego.

I spent most of my childhood in that house. I followed my father to USA when he was sent there to work, living in US was a completely different experience, the life there were slow-paced and stress free. I enjoyed playing at the playground and going shopping with my mum at the grocery shops. I am willingly to defend it as i treasure my childhood memories, every mole hole in the house got its own story-

I still hope that one day i can go back and live in the house again.

The thing that I will want to protect most is the peace in Singapore. Not many people in other countries get to enjoy living in harmony with different races, and that is one of the main reasons why riots often occur, which will cause both the citizens and the country’s economy to suffer.

Singapore is the place where I grew up in and I am fond of her. The peace that we Singaporeans have is so unique that many tourists came to visit Singapore just to have a taste of the racial harmony here. By defending the peace we have, not only will we be able to lead a comfortable and safe life, we can also ensure that Singapore’s economy will continue to develop as the tourism industry will continue to generate more money.

i wish to defend my country, Singapore.

Singapore is my homeland, where i belong. It is my country where i lived for 16 years so far, and it is where i was born and nurtured. Memories here cannot be forgotten and i wish to fulfill my responsibilty as a Singapore citizen, to protect my own beloved country.

Being a citizen of Singapore, i feel that it is within my responsibility to defend my own country.
Not only do i want to play a part in protecting the Singaporean way of life, but i also want to protect the people living in the country. In order to do that, i first have to ensure peace and security in the country so as to make sure the people whom i cherish are safe.

I want to defend for the ones close to me (friends, family, and relatives). It is because they bring joy into my life, are the ones that truly cares for me all the time and they cheer me up whenever I feel down.

To me, the most important thing that we must defend is YOU. YOU are the unique YOU. YOU are one of the four-plus million natural resources that Singapore has. YOU are also irreplaceable and that is what that makes YOU unique. YOU may be from any walks of life; students, teachers, soldiers, construction workers, businessman and many more. But without YOU, we would not have what we have today. Thus YOU are one of the most precious and exquisite treasures that we must protect.

I want to defend the world! I want world peace. Why must there be wars and fightings between people when we are created to love each other. Wars only cause blood and death. There's no concern between people that we live together. Hence, I want to defend the world. I hope that all wars and riots and fightings will stop, not only within a country but also between countries. We must learn to live in peace! live in harmony! Only by defending the world, we're able to defend ourselves! We do not want riots on earth, we do not want blood on earth! In addition, we also have to defend the world by preventing global warming and ozone depletion.Lets do our part to defend the world!

I will defend my family because my family is extremely vital and plays a significant part of my life. They are my shoulders to cry on when i'm sad and my buddies to share my happiness. They are the people who i trust and depend on in times of hardship.

What will I defend? Without hesitation, “FAMILY” ran through my mind. They are the closest people in my life and it is my responsibility to protect and defend them. Since the day I was born, my parents had been taking care of me and it is my turn to take care of them. They are also my source of support; therefore, they are the most important people in my life. There are also other things that I will defend, such as my house, friends, relatives and even Singapore. All of them are part of my life and in times of threats or crisis, I will not forget any single one of them!

My home is where i live, where my family and is where i feel safe, warm and loved. It is also where i seek shelter when it rains outside and when i run into trouble. This place has always been there for me for de past decade. Hence, if something happens, my home is what i'll defend as it is not only my house. It is my shelter, part of my family.
