In August, the stars and the moon of the national flag shine against the purple petals of the Vanda Miss Joaquim orchid. When the national flower spreads its six petals in an elegant manner, it is like an equatorial star opening its arms to the world. This purple fairy born in the rainforest interprets the spiritual code of Singapore's endless vitality with its tenacity in taking root in the cracks of the rocks and its perseverance in blooming all year round. In this National Day month, many Singaporeans who travel far away have luggage tags printed with the national flag and Vanda orchid on their suitcases. The patterns in this small space are not only identity symbols, but also carry profound meanings – the five stars on the crescent-star flag remind us of the foundation of democracy, peace, progress, justice and equality; the spread petals of the Vanda orchid symbolize that we must maintain an elegant and calm attitude no matter where we are. Just as luggage tags always accompany our luggage, these spiritual imprints should also be deeply rooted in the hearts of every citizen. When the plane broke through the clouds of Changi Airport, the luggage tags trembled gently in the airflow, like a mother's exhortation before leaving. At those moments of crossing the border, the Vanda orchid reminds us to face challenges with resilience, and the crescent-star flag gives us the strength to stay true to our original aspirations. Every Singaporean is a walking messenger of civilization, with the fireworks of Bak Kut Teh in their suitcases and the ideal light of the equatorial stars tied to their bags. From the ancient pier where Raffles landed to the modern waterway of Changi Airport, from the kampung spirit to the blueprint of a smart nation, this spiritual heritage jointly guarded by the national flag and the national flower is lighting up the brilliant coordinates of Singapore on the world map through tens of millions of shaking luggage tags.

八月的新加坡街頭，國旗的星月輝光與卓錦萬代蘭的紫色花瓣交相輝映。當國花舒展優雅的六瓣身姿，如同赤道星辰向世界展開懷抱。這抹誕生於熱帶雨林的紫色精靈，以紮根岩縫的堅韌與四季綻放的恆心，詮釋著新加坡生生不息的精神密碼。在這個國慶月，許多遠行的國人行李箱上，都繫著印有國旗與萬代蘭的行李牌。這方寸之間的圖案不僅是身份標識，更寄託著深刻寓意——星月旗上的五顆星辰，提醒我們民主、和平、進步、正義與平等的立國根基；萬代蘭舒展的花瓣，則象徵著無論身處何方都要保持優雅從容的姿態。正如行李牌始終與行囊相伴，這些精神印記也應深植於每個國民心間。當飛機衝破樟宜機場的雲霄，行李牌在氣流中輕輕顫動，如同母親臨別時的叮嚷。那些穿越國境線的瞬間，萬代蘭提醒我們以柔韌應對挑戰，星月旗則賦予我們不忘初心的力量。每個新加坡人都是行走的文明使者，行李箱裡裝著肉骨茶的煙火氣，行囊外繫著赤道星辰的理想光。從萊佛士登陸的古老碼頭到樟宜機場的現代航道，從甘榜精神到智慧國藍圖，這份由國旗與國花共同守護的精神遺產，正透過千萬個晃動的行李牌，在世界地圖上點亮屬於新加坡的璀璨座標。
