SG HEART MAP UNVEILS 50 SPECIAL PLACES Jul 28th, 2015 Home is where the heart is. SG Heart Map celebrates the places that define Singapore as our home. Over a crowdsourcing period of six months, Singaporeans have contributed personal stories of their endearing and cherished places in Singapore relating to childhood, special moments, favourite hangouts and food places. Through this collection of stories, 50 SG Heart Map places have emerged, weaving together memorable past places, meaningful new places and aspirations for future places into a rich tapestry. Besides attesting to the special places where we live, work, play and eat, the diversity of places and experiences reflects the development of Singapore’s physical landscape over the past first five decades since Singapore’s independence.

These “Hang-Out” places range from the perennial favourites such as Sentosa, Orchard Road, Singapore Zoo and East Coast Park, to places that are relatively new like Marina Bay, Resorts World Sentosa and Gardens by the Bay. Beyond the places where Singaporeans work and play, close to 25% of the contributors shared stories about their lives and memories in the different towns across Singapore. This strong sense of community led to a rich collection of sharing pertaining to their childhood memories, and their favourite food and hang-out places in their towns. SG HEART MAP HDB TOWNS 1.

Leadership development remains the critical issue for mission endeavors around the world. How are leaders developed from the local context for the local context?
