Serangoon Swing...Part 8, The PM arrives.

From about 10 pm onwards, more people came from out of nowhere strolling towards the main section of the crowd that encircled the stage. Perhaps they had known in advance that PM Lee Hsien Loong and his wife would be arriving at 11 pm for the Countdown proper.

The emcees and the entertainers had done their job well keeping the excited crowd on their toes...until the arrival of the Guest of Honour.
