As a nation, we observe on this day the Gallipoli landing on April 25, 1915, during World War 1.
On this day, we gather in solemnity to remember and honour the sacrifices of those who have served and fallen in wars, conflicts, and peacekeeping missions around the world.
On this day, we also remember the sacrifices of the families of military personnel. They, too, carry a heavy burden when their loved ones leave our shores to fight for peace.
On this day, our national day, we reflect on the cost of the freedoms we are privileged to enjoy, as conflicts continue around the world.
To honour the memory of our nation’s fallen, let us do more than remember but ask ‘What will we do with our freedom, on this day, and every day?’
