As I walked down Scotts Road today, I noticed the decor on the ceilings. The slogan says,

Christmas and all its commercialism has unfortunately gone far from its true meaning. I do still hope though that one day Singapore and the whole world can celebrate, be thankful and remember why it’s called CHRISTmas in the first place.
