Past Themes
Since 2003, the Speak Good English Movement has been launched annually with year-long programmes and activities held island-wide to increase the awareness among Singaporeans that speaking good English matters in their daily lives. Each year a different theme focusing on the target audience is created. The themes that were used in the campaign thus far are:
- 2000–2004: Speak Well. Be Understood.
- 2005-06: Speak Up. Speak Out. Speak Well
- 2006-07: Be Understood. Not only in Singapore, Malaysia and Batam
- 2007-08: Rock Your World! Express Yourself
- 2008-09: I Can
- 2009-10: Impress. Inspire. Intoxicate.
- 2010-11: Get it Right
- 2011/12: How You Speak Makes A Difference

Famous quotes containing the word themes:
“I suppose you think that persons who are as old as your father and myself are always thinking about very grave things, but I know that we are meditating the same old themes that we did when we were ten years old, only we go more gravely about it.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“In economics, we borrowed from the Bourbons; in foreign policy, we drew on themes fashioned by the nomad warriors of the Eurasian steppes. In spiritual matters, we emulated the braying intolerance of our archenemies, the Shi’ite fundamentalists.”
—Barbara Ehrenreich (b. 1941)
