As the Covid-19 outbreak intensifies in Singapore, frontline workers continue to make sacrifices to keep the virus under control.

Many Singaporeans have since shown their appreciation for these workers, from clapping initiatives to a mama store with free necessities for healthcare workers.

One towering figure synonymous with our nation’s pride recently joined these efforts.

Marina Bay Sands (MBS), normally illuminated only by the lights from its hotel rooms, brings an uplifting display of lights to cheer Singapore on amid the Covid-19 outbreak.

Hope doesn’t cease, and we wish to spread the message of positivity through this display of lights.

Don’t head out just to take a picture of the light display

Even though the light display makes for a good addition to your Instagram feed, we hope you’ll think twice before venturing out just to snap a picture.

We know staying home for prolonged periods of time can be torturous, but at this point in time, that’s the best we can do to keep the outbreak under control.
