SINGAPORE (The Straits Times/Asia News Network): The Bishan otters have made their mark again, this time on Monday’s Google Doodle.

Exactly seven years ago, on Aug 7, 2016, Singaporeans voted in a poll by The Straits Times and selected the otters to represent the country on its 51st birthday. The Republic will celebrate its 58th birthday on Wednesday (Aug 9).
