  • Participants' Handbook
    1st to 3rd November 2019 Participants’ Handbook version 3 (updated on 21 Oct 2019) A project by: 1 FOREWORD Let’s Take A Walk (LTAW) is a non-profit, endurance walking event with six categories – 20 km JalanWalk (Saturday), 20 km JalanWalk (Sunday), 50 km PowerWalk (Day), 50 km PowerWalk (Night), 100 km XtremeWalk and 150 km UltimateWalk. The event is organised by volunteers from Raleigh Singapore who share the conviction to pay it forward and help those in need in our society. Started 22 years ago in 1997, LTAW has been challenging participants to push their mental and physical limits, while championing worthy charity causes. This year marks the eleventh edition of LTAW. Our adopted charity for LTAW 2019 is the Rare Disorders Society Singapore (RDSS). RDSS is a non-profit organisation that supports families or individuals who are suffering from very rare form of diseases. These groups of patients form a minority in our society and hence they receive little or no attention. As such, we have chosen this year’s theme to be “Raring to Go the Distance”. Through LTAW 2019, we hope to create the awareness for RDSS and their beneficiaries. On behalf of the organising committee, we thank you for your participation and for supporting LTAW. Every step counts and we are happy to have you on this journey with us. Thank you! Warmest regards, Siti Maziah Binte Masramli Toh Poh Joo LTAW 2019 Co-organising Chairpersons 2 3 OUR BENEFICIARIES RARE DISORDERS SOCIETY SINGAPORE Rare Disorders Society (Singapore) or RDSS is a non-profit organisation initiated by parents of children with LSD (Lysosomal Storage Disorder).

  • East Coast Park Connector Network Cycling Trail
    A Guide to Eastern Coastal Park Connector Network ECPCN (ECPCN) Cycling Trail Come live it up in the east by embarking on this 42-km long ECPCN cycling trail. Comprising seven park connectors, the ECPCN links up popular beach parks at East Coast, Changi Beach and Pasir Ris - hotspots for cyclists, rollerbladers and water sports enthusiasts. Running and cycling routes on this park connector network are also popular choices for several big-scale sports events, including the annual Sundown Marathon. This well-shaded cycling route offers you an abundance of scenic views, especially along the coastline. The route also gives you easy access to car parking facilities, toilets, and eateries. Use your own sports bike for this expedition. Alternatively, rent a bike from one of the seven PCN Pitstops, and drop off the bike at any of the other Pitstops located along ECPCN without having to back track. If you plan to take public transport, consider starting your expedition at Telok Kurau Park, Sun Plaza Park or Pasir Ris Town Park (given their proximity to MRT stations and PCN Pitstops). If you drive, there are ample parking lots available at the public parks.

  • Biodiversity and Human Livelihoods in Protected Areas: Case Studies from the Malay Archipelago
    Biodiversity and Human Livelihoods in Protected Areas: Case Studies from the Malay Archipelago Protected areas have emerged as major arenas of dispute concerning both indigenous people and environmental protection. In the Malay Archipelago, which contains 2 of the 34 biodiversity hotspots identified globally, rampant commercial exploitation is jeopardizing species and livelihoods. While protected areas remain the only hope for the imperilled biota of the Malay Archipelago, this protection requires consideration of the sustenance needs and economic aspirations of the local people. Putting forward the views of all the stakeholders of protected areas – conservation practitioners and planners, local community members, NGO activists, government administrators, biologists, lawyers, policy and management analysts and anthropologists – this book fills a unique niche in the area of biodiversity conservation, and is a highly valuable and original reference book for graduate students, scientists and managers, as well as government officials and transnational NGOs. Navjot S. Sodhi is currently an Associate Professor at the National University of Singapore. He received his Ph.D. from the University of Saskatchewan, and has been studying the effects of rainforest loss and degradation on Southeast Asian fauna for the past 11 years. He is a former Bullard Fellow at Harvard, and has conducted research funded by many organizations, including the National Geographic Society. Greg Acciaioli graduated with a Ph.D. in Anthropology from the Australian National University, and currently lectures in anthropology and sociology at the University of Western Australia. He has been a Research Fellow at the Center for Southeast Asian Studies at the City University of Hong Kong, the Asia Research Centre at Murdoch University and the Asia Research Institute at the National University of Singapore.

  • ANNUAL REPORT 2013/2014 1 Grow with Us
    ANNUAL REPORT 2013/2014 1 Grow With Us The seeds of Singapore’s greening campaign were sown in 1963, when former Prime Minster Mr Lee Kuan Yew planted a Mempat tree at Farrer Circus. Fifty years later on 16 June 2013, he set a Rain Tree sapling firmly in the ground at Holland Village Park, marking the start of a series of activities to commemorate our greening journey. As we look back at the greening efforts over the past 50 years, we can see the dramatic transformation that has taken place in Singapore’s landscape as we transitioned from those nascent years to a Garden City and now to our City in a Garden. Going forward, we will continue to be guided by the vision of our pioneering leaders to make Singapore a distinctive and attractive place to live in. We will continue to build on the foundations that have been laid over the past five decades and we invite everyone – individuals, communities and corporations – to Grow With Us.
