There are many ways to show off our Singapore pride — from flying our national flag to adorning our bodies with temporary tattoos during National Day. One migrant worker, though, decided to do something a little more permanent.

Vinoth, 29, got the iconic lion head symbol inked on the back of his neck as an homage to Singapore and a photo of him and his tattoo was shared by Lieutenant-Colonel Alex Chua in a heartwarming Facebook post on June 17 as part of his #storiesfromthefrontline series.

The Indian national told Chua: “I love Singapore. It is clean, safe and people take care of me. That was why I wanted to tattoo this Singapore lion head on me.”

Vinoth, who has been working as a grass cutter in Singapore for the last four years, got inked while he was back in India on home leave last year, Chua said.
