The video is a remake of a Singapore classic "Home" which was written by local composer Dick Lee and made popular by singer Kit Chan in the 1998 National Day Parade.
Featuring 39 artistes, the video is now the face of this year's Total Defence campaign.
Deputy Prime Minister and Defence Minister Teo Chee Hean said Total Defence had enabled government agencies, private sector organisations and individual Singaporeans to come together to effectively deal with various national crises such as the fallout from the 9/11 attacks in 2001, the Sars outbreak in 2003, and the recent global recession,

Members of the public who want to do your part and go to http://www.thisishome.sg and download the "Home" video. Four organisations have pledged a dollar to the Community Chest for every download of the "Home" video.
