KJJP-FM 105.7 is currently operating at very reduced power and signal range using a back-up transmitter. This is because of complicated problems with its very old primary transmitter. Local engineers are currently working on that transmitter and consulting with the manufacturer to diagnose and fix the problems. We apologize for this disruption and service as we work as quickly as possible to restore KJPFM to full power. In the mean time you can always stream either the HPPR mix service or HPPR connect service using the player above or the HPPR app.

Delivery Driver Joins Singapore's National Day Parade

Published August 10, 2020 at 5:13 AM CDT

STEVE INSKEEP, HOST:

Good morning. I'm Steve Inskeep. Delivery drivers are working overtime, so it's fitting that one decided to tag along at the end of a parade. It was Singapore's National Day parade. People lined the route, flags in hand, cheering the country's 55th birthday. And video on social media shows a delivery man on a motorbike joined the tail end of that parade, smiling and waving. Maybe drivers deserve their own parade. They could just drop off stuff along the route. It's MORNING EDITION. Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright NPR.
