Singapore KIT CHAN Since her debut in 1993, Singaporean Kit Chan has proven herself in many diverse areas - singing, theatre, television drama, poetry, song writing, and community work. After enjoying much success in Taiwan, Kit got her big break in Hong Kong in 1997 when she starred opposite Jacky Cheung and Sandy Lam in the Cantonese musical Snow. Wolf.Lake. Kit was once again invited in 2004-2005 to play the leading female in the tour of the Mandarin version of Snow.Wolf.Lake in cities like Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou. Back home in Singapore, Kit was the first solo artiste commissioned by the National Arts Council to perform the Sing Singapore community song Home in both English and Mandarin. Both versions made it to the local pop charts - an unprecedented first for community songs. As Singapore's Youth Ambassador, Kit also worked with World Vision, leading a group of Singaporean youths in building latrines and a playground for a primary school in Cambodia. Her visit to Ethiopia was subsequently made into a documentary to bring attention to the plight of the needy and less fortunate. Kit now sponsors two Ethiopian children.

On this land that we share Where we build our hopes and dreams To become the best we can Is what life really means Live our dreams

On this day that we sing With our hearts beating loud As our nation comes together And as one we stand strong and proud Let our voices, rise through the clouds

I see victory I feel unity I hear happiness in perfect harmony There is no place that I'd rather be today Where the spirit shines and runs through you and me (2x)

Win or lose is not the game Nor the reason why we came It's the reaching of dreams As one golden team

We see victory We feel unity We hear happiness in perfect harmony There is no place that la rather be today Where the spirit shines and runs through you and me (2x)

There is no place that I'd rather be today Where the spirit shines and runs through you and me

(It's our time) Take your place (Born to shine) And embrace (Now's the time) To live our dreams
