The organizers have officially announced that Sun Ho will be performing at the countdown event. I am honestly stunned by this result and I know this happened only because you all chose to step up and push for it. Please keep watching how these decisions get made in our city …

We, the undersigned, petition for Sun Ho to perform at Countdown 2016 to be held at The Float @ Marina Bay.

MediaCorp has headlined singer-songwriter Adam Lambert as the star in the annual Countdown show, one of the biggest media events of the year featuring artistes and performers locally and overseas – but we understand that there are people who feel their children might turn gay from watching a gay person.

We believe it is Sun Ho who has more of an "unquenchable thirst to sing better, to live better, to love better, to be better." (After all, we can't imagine why else she'd travel across the world to live for an extended period of time in a luxurious mansion if she wasn't trying to be a better artiste.)

We call on people to rally for a performer who reminds the “majority of Singaporeans” of wholesome things such as family values, money, booty-shaking, money, some criminal case, money, God, money, church, and, of course, money. You know, "mainstream Singaporean values."

Let us reject divisive things such as “western liberal ideas about family values and societal models" and "lewd acts in the name of entertainment" to “preserve our nation’s moral fibre”. With Sun Ho as the closing act of Countdown 2016, we can look forward to a "dignified family-friendly event" that is not "offensive and potentially divisive".

To avoid dividing Singapore and souring what can be a rousing end of a significant SG50 year and a roaring start to a brand new year, we hereby petition:

  • MediaCorp
  • the Government of Singapore
  • Minister Grace Fu and the Ministry of Community, Culture and Youth
  • Esplanade Theatres on the Bay
  • Urban Redevelopment Authority
  • TGIF Bazaars
  • The roti prata uncle from Casuarina
  • All other organisers, partners and sponsors of Countdown 2016

‎to respect the views of the majority of Singaporeans by adding Sun Ho to the lineup of performers for Countdown 2016.

Thank you for your kind and prompt attention.

For the love of Singapore, our family and our future

I checked the count this morning and saw a hundred people have signed on. I honestly thought I was the only person thinking about this so seeing your names here is overwhelming.

I am honestly a bit stunned by the reach this has gained over the past few days. This momentum is entirely yours because I never imagined this would resonate with so many people. Thank you for giving this project a life of its own.

Yes! Sun Ho is the ultimate face of Singaporean music - and what better way to end our SG50 celebrations with Ho singing Kill Bill? Who needs Lambert when we've got our own Ho-llywood superstar?

I totally endorse Sun Ho appearing on the Countdown as she epitomises good decent Christian values. We need more role models like her and her supportive church leaders.

sometimes I want to watch a train wreck. I'm sure other people on occassion want to as well. so I think this would be a great stage to do so.

Sun Ho is the embodiment of all the values we stand for as a nation and one people. There is no better way to welcome a new year and new beginnings (like the start of Changi vacation). Sun Ho is the role model all Singaporeans should strive to emulate. And of course, by watching her performances, our kids will not become gay.

And she must sing China Wine, which happens to be very apt for our current local climate. And also for her encore, please let her sing 'Keel Biiill'.

No doubt a more wholesome performer than Adam Lambert, whose lewd act pushing the gay agenda is insidious propaganda that would make even China whine.
