Retiree Gary Giam, 66, was at Teck Ghee Square with his wife for the celebration.
The Cheng San resident said: “We were caught in the rain but we enjoyed the presence of SM Lee, the floats and the activities.”
The event is part of Chingay@Heartlands 2025, which is taking place in eight heartland locations across Singapore over four weekends in February and March. Each location offers its own unique programme.
Singapore and Malaysia will be jointly nominating the Chingay parade to be inscribed on Unesco’s intangible cultural heritage list. The result of the nomination is expected in end-2026 at the earliest.
Mr Giam said: “Chingay should be recognised by Unesco, and we are confident we will succeed with the strong collaboration with Malaysia.”

With the theme “Tastes of Togetherness”, Chingay at Ang Mo Kio rolled out a slew of activities, including a procession of community-built floats, community food art installations, a mini street parade and resident performances.
Getai and multicultural performances took place at Our Park@618 and Mayflower Market, while Cheng San Market’s stage featured live band performances.
Over at Ci Yuan Community Club, a street parade showcased performances by school students and interest groups. Buangkok Square Mall hosted a vivid 1.25m-by-1.25m work of art – a bowl of curry fish created with bricks. Over in Fernvale, residents were treated to four static Chingay community floats.
