A skateboarder from Singapore recently executed a kickflip maneuver atop the iconic Cenotaph, a solemn war memorial situated in Esplanade Park dedicated to honoring the sacrifices of those who fought in World War I and World War II.

The incident has prompted a heated discussion on the delicate balance between artistic expression and the need to preserve the sanctity of historical monuments.

Upon receiving inquiries from AsiaOne, authorities confirmed on Monday (Dec 18) that a formal report had been lodged, and an investigation into the matter is underway.

The Cenotaph stands as a solemn reminder of the sacrifices made by countless individuals during times of war.

Skating on such a revered memorial raises questions about the boundaries of artistic freedom and the responsibility to show respect for the significance of historical monuments.

While some argue that the skateboarder's actions constitute a form of artistic expression, others insist that certain places, particularly those dedicated to memorializing the fallen, should be treated with utmost reverence.

The incident has reignited the ongoing debate surrounding the clash between individual freedoms and societal norms.
