Celebrating 3 May Constitution Day

This year, the Embassy of Poland in Singapore proudly celebrated the 235th anniversary of the Constitution of 3 May, one of the most important milestones in Polish history.

The evening brought together distinguished guests from Singapore and Poland, including Guest of Honour Dr Janil Puthucheary, Members of Parliament Gho Sze Kee and Joan Pereira, Polish Deputy Minister at the Ministerstwo Rolnictwa i Rozwoju Wsi Małgorzata Gromadzka, and Polish Sejm deputies Katarzyna Królak and Jarosław Rzepa. Their presence highlighted the strong and growing relationship between Poland and Singapore.

We were delighted to welcome diplomats, business leaders, media representatives, members of the Polish community, and many friends of Poland. Their participation made the celebration especially meaningful and reflected the warm ties that connect our countries.

The programme opened with a memorable piano performance by Krzysztof Moskalewicz, who delighted guests with a repertoire that ranged from Dayung Sampan to works by Frédéric Chopin.

Guests also enjoyed an exceptional culinary experience prepared by Chef Sebastian Kornacki with the support of the Taste Europe programme. The evening showcased the richness of Polish hospitality, culture, and cuisine.
