Yes, bubble tea is going to be a part of the 2019 National Day Parade (NDP).

LiHO marching contingent

Local bubble tea chain LiHO will be marching at this year's parade for the first time ever, during the "Parade and Ceremony" (P&C) segment.

Themed "Our Singapore", a total of 38 contingents will march at this year's parade, including the usual military groups comprising four guard-of honour contingents and five Singapore Armed Forces (SAF) and Home Team contingents.

The segment will also have 16 social and economic contingents, made up of different companies and organisations, including LiHO.

Besides the uniformed groups and organisations, volunteers from the Home Team and Singapore Armed Forces Volunteer Corps (SAFVC) also formed the first-ever SAF and Home Team Volunteer contingent for this year's parade.

Singapore businesses make the country

The P&C segment this year is a commemoration of organisations and their contributions to Singapore, and "a celebration of Singaporeans who are an integral part of the nation", according to Pioneer magazine.

Neat.

Some 15,000 personnel are involved in this year's parade, with 2,600 participants in the P&C segment alone.
