DEFINITION

Noun

A campaign aimed at creating a courteous society in which Singaporeans are considerate of each other’s needs.

 

由来
  • 英语 “National Courtesy Campaign” 的意译。  
  • 礼貌运动最初于1978年由新加坡旅游促进局 (Singapore Tourist Promotion Board) 推广，主要是希望国人对旅客更加有礼貌和友善。
  • 然而，时任总理李光耀觉得应该鼓励新加坡人对所有人更友善和有礼，因此便于1979年6月1日发起了全国礼貌运动。
  • 礼貌运动的目的是“创造一个愉悦的社会环境，让新加坡人相互体谅，考虑彼此的需要”。
  • 1982年，新加坡礼貌运动采用礼貌狮子新雅 (Singa the Courtesy Lion) 作为官方吉祥物，取代了“Smiley”标志。新雅在1980和1990年代成为新加坡最知名的吉祥物之一，设计师甚至在1987年为新雅增加了一个女性伴侣和三只小幼崽。
  • 2001年3月1日，新加坡礼貌运动正式纳入新加坡行善运动 (Singapore Kindness Movement)。
ETYMOLOGY
  • The Mandarin term “新加坡礼貌运动” is a paraphrase of the English term “National Courtesy Campaign”.
  • The campaign was first promoted by the Singapore Tourist Promotion Board in 1978 with the aim of encouraging Singaporeans to be more polite and friendly towards tourists.
  • However, then Prime Minister Lee Kuan Yew felt that courtesy should be shown to everyone and not just tourists. As such, the campaign was rebranded and relaunched on 1 June 1979. 
  • The Courtesy Campaign aims to “create a pleasant social environment, with Singaporeans considerate to each other and thoughtful of each other’s needs”.
  • Singa the Courtesy Lion was made the campaign’s official mascot in 1982, replacing the initial Smiley logo. Singa was one of Singapore’s most well-known mascot figures during the 1980s and 1990s. In the 1987 edition of the campaign, Singa was joined by a female partner and three young lion cubs.
  • The National Courtesy Campaign became part of the Singapore Kindness Movement on 1 March 2001.
例句
当初在 1982 年构想出新雅这个吉祥物时，新加坡礼貌运动是使用祥和以及友善的卡通人物的开拓者之一，与以往以口号率领的政府倡议大有不同。(《联合早报》，5/6/2019）
SAMPLE SENTENCE
With the conceptualisation of Singa in 1982, the National Courtesy Campaign became one of the first to adopt an approachable and friendly cartoon character as its mascot, a significant departure from previous official campaigns that used slogans. (Lianhe Zaobao, 5/6/2019)
