Kallang National Stadium

During my childhood days, the Kallang National Stadium was often packed with soccer fans. During those days, Singapore was still participating in the Malaysia League. The Kallang National Stadium was our home ground. When packed with fans, the atmosphere was intimidating to the opponents. It was like a twelve player in the team. It was also where the Kallang Roar came about.

This sight was seldom spotted once Singapore was out of the Malaysia League. In addition, the Kallang National Stadium will be demolished soon to make way for development plans. Not wanting this landmark to be erased from our memories, I went down and prayed for the best, hoping it was still opened to the public. Thank God, I was able to go in through on of the gate.
