  • Release No.: 43/OCT SPEECH by MR. LIM HNG KIANG, ACTING MINISTER for NATIONAL DEVELOPMENT, at TEE OPENING of the WHAMPOA FLYOVER
    Release No.: 43/OCT 14-2/94/10/29 SPEECH BY MR. LIM HNG KIANG, ACTING MINISTER FOR NATIONAL DEVELOPMENT, AT TEE OPENING OF THE WHAMPOAFLYOVER ON SATURDAY, 29 OCTOBER1994 AT 11.30 AN I am happy to be here this morning to officially open the new Whampoa Flyover. The Pan-Island Expressway (PIE) is Singapore's first and longest expressway. To cater for further increases in travel demand, the Public Works Department (PWD) had in 1991 embarked on a $185 million comprehensive programme to upgrade and improve the middle stretch of PIE between Jalan Eunos and BKE. The upgrading works include the widening of the main carriageway, the expansion of the Woodsville, Whampoa and Whitley Flyovers, the building of the new Kim Keat Flyover, and the improvement to the Toa Payoh South Flyover. The interchange of the Pan Island Expressway and the Central Expressway (CTE) is a major intersection of the two expressways. It is also, at present, the most complex in our expressway network in that it is the only one which serves as a four-way junction for intersecting expressways. Elsewhere in Singapore, our expressways have been planned to meet at three-way junctions. PWD has staged the construction of the interchange to meet traffic needs. When the CTE was built in 1983, the first stage of the interchange, allowing for three turning movements, was constructed. Provisions were made in the design for its expansion to take on more turning movements. Five additional turning movements are catered by the complete interchange layout, two of which have been opened as part of the construction works.

By shutting its nostrils and eyes, the Sunda Pangolin is able to protect its vulnerable parts from the powerful bites of this ant speces. The scales and thick skin further reduce the impacts of the ants’ attack. ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS My supervisor Professor Peter Ng Kee Lin is a wonderful mentor who provides the perfect combination of support and freedom that every graduate student should have. Despite his busy schedule, he always makes time for his students and provides the appropriate advice needed. His insightful comments and innovative ideas never fail to impress and inspire me throughout my entire time in the University. Lastly, I am most grateful to Prof. Ng for seeing promise in me and accepting me into the family of the Systematics and Ecology Laboratory. I would also like to thank Benjamin Lee for introducing me to the subject of pangolins, and subsequently introducing me to Melvin Gumal. They have guided me along tremendously during the preliminary phase of the project and provided wonderful comments throughout the entire course. The Wildlife Conservation Society (WCS) provided funding to undertake this research. In addition, field biologists from the various WCS offices in Southeast Asia have helped tremendously throughout the project, especially Anthony Lynam who has taken time off to conduct a camera-trapping workshop.

  • Urban Tropical Ecology in Singapore Biology / Environ 571A
    URBAN TROPICAL ECOLOGY IN SINGAPORE BIOLOGY / ENVIRON 571A Course Description (from Duke University Bulletin) Experiential field oriented course in Singapore and Malaysia focusing on human ecology, tropical diversity, disturbed habitats, Asian extinctions, and resource management. Students spend approximately three weeks in Singapore/Malaysia during the spring semester. Additional course fees apply. Faculty: Dr. Dan Rittschof, Dr. Tom Schultz General Description Singapore is a fascinating combination of biophysical, human and institutional ecology, tropical diversity, disturbed habitats, invasive species and built environments. Within the boundaries of the city state/island of Singapore one can go from patches of primary rain forest to housing estates for 4.8 million plus residents, industrial complexes, and a port that processes between 800 and 1000 ships a day. Singapore's land area grew from 581.5 km2 (224.5 sq mi) in the 1960s to 704 km2 (271.8 sq mi) today, and may grow by another 100 km² (38.6 sq mi) by 2030. Singapore includes thousands of introduced species, including a multicultural assemblage of human inhabitants. Singapore should be in the Guinness Book of World Records for its increase in relative country size due to reclamation, and for the degree of governmental planning and control for the lives of its citizens. It is within this biological and social context that this experiential field oriented seminar will be conducted. Students will experience how this city state functions, and how it has worked to maintain and enhance the quality of life of its citizens while intentionally and unintentionally radically modifying its environment, in the midst of the extremely complicated geopolitical situation of Southeast Asia.

We first shine the spotlight on Hougang and Chai Chee, highlighting how these two towns navigated their changes in ethnic composition and built up a strong spirit of neighbourliness. We also trace the evolution of two formerly remote towns, Woodlands and Jurong, into industrial and transport nodes that played key roles in Singapore’s economic development. We then examine how the philanthropic legacies of Eunos and Whampoa were kept alive through the various community self-help initiatives in these towns, and explore the interesting transformation of Tai Seng from a town once known for its gang and criminal activities, to a quiet industrial and residential estate today.

  • Chapter 4 the Provincial and Urban Level: Meeting the Local Needs
    The provincial and urban level: meeting local needs Chapter 4 Chapter 4 The provincial and urban level: meeting the local needs Increasingly, cities and regions in developing countries adopt incentive- based transport strategies in order to raise local revenue and alleviate congestion and environmental problems in urban areas. Nevertheless, there is no blue print as to how to successfully manage transport demand on the local level. It should always be borne in mind that sound transport measures based on Economic Instruments: • are highly city-specific, depend on city size, level of develop- ment, road networks and transport demand characteristics, cultu- ral and educational factors that determine transport behaviour, fle- xibility in transport mode choice, public acceptance, institutional capacities to introduce and enforce measures, local institutional and jurisdictional independence from national transport policy fra- meworks; • are most effective if applied as part of a comprehensive transport strategy as outlined in chapters 1 and 2; On the regional and local level important Economic Instruments which are implemented in many countries include: • Surcharges on national/federal measures (see section 4.1), • Parking fees (see section 4.2), • Urban road and congestion pricing (see section 4.3). These measures will be discussed in more detail below. 87 Chapter 4 The provincial and urban level: meeting local needs Surcharges on national/federal measures Surcharges as a policy instrument The basic idea Local charges to Supplementing a national policy.

  • 96 - Mbt- 26 Releaseno: 04\SEPTEMBER 03A-1/96/09/03
    National Archives of singapore 96 - mbt- 26 ReleaseNo: 04\SEPTEMBER 03A-1/96/09/03 SPEECH BY MINISTER FOR COMMUNICATIONS MR MAH BOW TAN AT THE OPENING OF TAMPINES EXPRESSWAY (PHASE HI) ON 3 SEPTEMBER 1996 AT 9.00 AM AT PUNGGOL BRIDGE The White Paper on Land Transport published in January this year set out our long-term vision of a world class land transport system for Singapore. I told Parliament that our vision cannot be achieved overnight. It will take us 10 to 15 years. But I know that Singaporeans can be impatient. They want results fast. That is why LTA must continually implement various measures and make tangible improvements to our transport system. Then Singaporeans can see and feel that we are making progress, as we work towards our objective. Our focus is to develop a world class public transport system. Knowing the aspirations of Singapore however, the White Paper also spelt out a major initiative to develop a comprehensive road network. More roads means more people can own cars. People will have better connections from place to place. There will be more routes to choose from. Traffic can be evened out, and traffic flows speeded up. Not only cars, but taxis and buses will flow better. All road users will benefit, whether you drive or use public transport. To achieve this goal of a comprehensive road network, the LTA has drawn up an extensive road development programme. In the next five years, the Government will spend some $1.7 billion on road building alone, an increase of 2 55 per cent from the last five years’ spending of $1.1 billion.
