Speech by Mr Lawrence Wong, Minister for National SPEECH BY MR LAWRENCE WONG, MINISTER FOR NATIONAL DEVELOPMENT AND SECOND MINISTER FOR FINANCE AT THE LAUNCH OF EXHIBITION OF PUBLIC IDEAS FOR PASIR PANJANG POWER DISTRICT ON 13 JANUARY 2020 (MONDAY), 9.30AM, AT URA CENTRE ATRIUM 1. A very good morning. I hope all of you have had a very good start to 2020, and the new decade. It is fitting that we are starting this new year with this exhibition of public ideas for the Pasir Panjang Power District because this is part of the Greater Southern Waterfront which will be one of our biggest urban transformation projects to take our city to the next level. By 2027, the container terminals at Keppel, Tanjong Pagar and Brani will move out, and we will start developing that section of the Greater Southern Waterfront. But prior to that, the first project in the Greater Southern Waterfront will be the area around Labrador Park. 2. One key parcel is the Pasir Panjang Power District. It is 15ha of prime waterfront land which consists of two disused power station buildings – Power Station ‘A’ and Power Station ‘B’. They used to supply electricity to our industries and city centre back in the 1950s and 60s. They were eventually decommissioned in the mid-1980s and late-1990s, as cleaner and more advanced power stations were built. 3. In other countries, power stations with their unique structures are often repurposed when they have outlived their original uses. You can see this for example in the Tate Modern art museum in the UK and Powerhouse Brisbane in Australia. Likewise, we will adopt a similar approach here. Redevelopment for Singapore does not mean having to tear down and demolish all our old buildings. Here, we can keep these historical buildings and give the old power stations a new lease of life. 4. We can already see the potential in some of the events held at the Power District in recent years. We have had music performances, art markets, and streetwear conventions. 5. The question is – how can we go beyond these short-term events to repurpose these old buildings and transform the Power District? Rather than have URA decide and answer this question, we decided to go for a more collaborative approach in order to get as many Singaporeans involved as possible in shaping the Greater Southern Waterfront. That is why URA and SLA jointly organised the “Power-Up Pasir Panjang!” ideas competition last year. Participants were invited to submit ideas under two topics. The first topic was to come up with a master plan for the rejuvenation of the whole Power District, and the second topic was more targeted to come up with innovative ways to repurpose Power Station ‘A’. 6. I am glad that the competition received widespread interest – we received nearly 80 submissions from students and professionals coming from different backgrounds, including submissions from overseas such as China and Indonesia, and even countries further afield in Sweden and the UK. 7. There were many good ideas, as you will see from the exhibition later – some suggested converting this into a mixed-use district, a hotel, events venue, a gallery space, an indoor park, an urban farm, a theme park, co-working space, a space for creative industries. These were amongst the many ideas that were put up. I am sure it was not easy for the jury panellists to pick out the winning submissions and I would like to take this opportunity this morning to congratulate all 10 winners of the competition. 8. We are very excited by all the ideas received from the competition. The ideas give us a better sense of the wide range of possibilities for the Power District. What will we do with these ideas? We will incorporate them into a Request for Information (RFI) exercise, which we are launching today. Through this exercise, we will get additional feedback from private developers and other interested parties – meaning those who have a real interest in developing and repurposing the District. From that, we will further refine the planning parameters of the site before we conclude and release the land parcel for development, possibly through a tender sometime next year. 9. This is a much more involved process than what would typically happen – where URA decides on the parameters, and we just go straight to a land tender. I think it is worthwhile taking some time to go through such a process. It is part of our “Singapore Together” movement to involve more Singaporeans in shaping our nation’s future. By doing so it will foster a greater sense of commitment. It will also allow us to generate a broad range of ideas from as many people as possible, before we narrow down to the best proposal for this site. By doing so I believe we can ensure that the Power District will be redeveloped into a unique waterfront destination that all Singaporeans can be proud of. 10. There are other things happening around the Power District. Nearby we have the Singapore Power 230kV Substation – it is just north of the Power District and in some ways, it blocks the entrance to the Power District. You will be happy to know that Singapore Power is in the process of redeveloping this into our first 230kV underground substation – it will tuck the substation underground, with an integrated commercial development sitting on top. That will be ready by around 2025. Next to this site is the Keppel Golf Club – its lease expires next year and the land will revert to the State. Thereafter, once the land preparatory work are done, we will launch the site for residential development, and it will have about 9,000 homes, including public housing. There will be green spaces linking all of these developments – one such space is the new Pasir Panjang Park. It is one of over 50 upcoming parks under the citizens’ park programme we announced recently – where we will involve many Singaporeans in the designing of the parks. NParks will soon be engaging the community on plans for this Pasir Panjang Park as well. 11. By the mid-2020s, all of us will be able to see these developments around Pasir Panjang and Labrador Park MRT starting to take shape. Then when container terminals move out in 2027, we can start work on the next big chunk of the Greater Southern Waterfront – where the Keppel, Tanjong Pagar and Brani terminals are. If you imagine the entire stretch of the Greater Southern Waterfront, we have Marina East on one end where we already have developments – and it is extending beyond Marina East and Marina South towards the west. On the other end of the Greater Southern Waterfront we have Pasir Panjang where we have all these projects which I just described. Eventually, they will come together at the centre, linked up with new attractions in Sentosa and Brani. In 20 years’ time, when you walk down from Marina Bay to Pasir Panjang, you will start to see the transformation of the area into a new, exciting and completely different waterfront. 12. This is just the beginning of a very long journey ahead. There is lots more work to be done and many exciting opportunities for us to build our future city. But as the saying goes, a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. We are taking our first and important step today in the development of the Greater Southern Waterfront, starting with your ideas for the new Pasir Panjang Power District. I would like to thank everyone for your contributions in shaping this new area. We certainly look forward to continued collaborations with all our stakeholders to develop the new Power District and the Greater Southern Waterfront over the coming years. Thank you very much and please enjoy the exhibition. .

  • NSS Bird Group Report-Oct 2015
    NSS Bird Group Report-Oct 2015 October normally marks the peak passerine migration period for Singapore. Unfortunately it was also the peak time for peatland forest fires in Indonesia resulting in prolonged haze in the region. This is not a rant about our own inconvenience, but before we proceed further, spare a thought for the lost habitat for these migrants that have flown thousands of kilometres to find their wintering ground destroyed. The globally threatened Brown-chested Jungle Flycatcher at Bidadari on 3 October The list of migrants that came to our shore this month is a long one. Among the notable ones are the ever popular Black-backed Kingfisher that landed at Bidadari on 6 October. Bidadari, which is widely considered as the best place in Singapore to see migrant forest birds also played host to numerous Brown-chested Jungle Flycatchers. This globally threatened species made its first appearance on 3 October and a few seemed to have made it their wintering ground. The Siberian Blue Robin, another attractive species that occupy the same bushes and ground as the jungle flycatchers also made its first appearance on 5 October. 1 Ferruginous Flycatcher at Bidadari Other notable sightings at Bidadari include the Asian Paradise Flyacatchers that made their first appearance on 2 October, the attractive Ferruginous Flycatcher on 28 October. The short range migrant from Malaysia, the Malaysian Hawk-Cuckoo made an appearance at Bidadari on 15 October. It’s cousin the similar looking Hodgson’s Hawk-Cuckoo came from further north and consequently made its first appearance on 18 October.

  • OFFICIAL OPENING of the MARINA BAY CRUISE CENTRE SINGAPORE the 28,000-Square-Metre Terminal Opens Its Doors to the Public with a Night of Festivities and Fireworks!
    OFFICIAL OPENING OF THE MARINA BAY CRUISE CENTRE SINGAPORE The 28,000-square-metre terminal opens its doors to the public with a night of festivities and fireworks! Diamond Princess and Voyager of the Seas docked at the Marina Bay Cruise Centre Singapore on its official opening on 22 October 2012 Singapore, 22 October 2012 – The Marina Bay Cruise Centre Singapore (MBCCS) at Marina South officially opened today in a ceremony attended by Deputy Prime Minister Mr Teo Chee Hean. The purpose-built 28,000-square-metre terminal, which is operated by SATS-Creuers Cruise Services (SCCS), saw its first ship dock on 26 May this year and is set to welcome more vessels as Singapore cements its status as a regional cruise hub. The Singapore Tourism Board announced in 2011 that SCCS, a joint venture between SATS and Creuers del Port de Barcelona (Creuers), was appointed as the operator for the terminal for a ten- year term, with an option to extend for another five years. The combined experience of SATS – the leading provider of gateway services and food solutions in the region – and Creuers – the largest port operator in Europe – was a large contributing factor to SCCS being selected to take the terminal forward. “The official opening of MBCCS marks a significant development for both the cruise landscape in Singapore and the ASEAN region. Not only does it deliver an enhanced and seamless travel Page 1 of 3 experience for cruise passengers, the terminal also serves to further anchor Singapore’s position as an attractive homeport for cruise lines with its state-of-the-art facilities and proximity to the new Marina Bay precinct and Singapore Changi Airport.

Two central city areas are investigated and taken as different Asian models for understanding the processes behind urban transformation. In Singapore, urban form making follows a top-down planning control system. In the 1990s, a new downtown plan was proposed at the reclaimed land, Marina South, using the concepts of through-block linkages, all weather comfort and sepa- rated multimodal pedestrian and transportation circula- tion. The ambitious plan is supported by the three tiers of Singapore’s urban planning system from the island-wide conceptual plan, district-wide land use plan to the site specific urban design guidelines.

  • 1 Coastal Protection
    Notes for GE4211 Field Trip to Marina Barrage (2 Apr ‘18) Denitza Voutchkova 1 COASTAL PROTECTION Coastal protection is one of the priorities in dealing with climate change effects in Singapore (the other is “improving drainage”). Minimum land reclamation level in Singapore was raised from 3 to 4 m above mean sea level in 2011 to address the projected sea level raise under the 2nd Climate change study. Defense from erosion: 70-80% of Singapore’s coastline: either walls or stone embankment 30-20% is “natural”, e.g. sandy beaches and mangroves Developing appropriate coastal measures coastal engineering, wave dynamics, coastal morphology, and hydrodynamics. Figure 1 2011 distribution of seawalls (in orange) around Singapore (source: Lai et al 2015, uploaded to IVLE, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ocecoaman.2014.11.006) Building and Construction Authority (BCA) has commissioned a study that will form the national framework for coastal protection measures (the Straits Times, Jan 5, 2018). The study started in 2013 and was initially planned to be completed by the end of 2017, but has been pushed back to the 2nd half of 2018. The reason for this delay was because “more time is needed to consider fresh input and to engage stakeholders, so coastal protection strategies will complement development plans” (the Straits Times, see link below). The study is undertaken by Surbana International Consultants & DHI Water and Environment.

  • Potential Use of Gyro Piler in ASEAN Countries
    Volume 5, Issue 1 March 2020 Case-History Potential Use of Gyro Piler in ASEAN Countries Teik Lim Goh Director Atsunew Giken Pte. Ltd. (Singapore) The Gyropress Method uses a newly developed press-in piling machine, so called “Gyro Piler” where rotary function is incorporated to allow tubular piles with cutting bits attached on pile toe to be inserted into a ground vertically or at varying lateral angle at both sides. In Japan where the press-in piling method is originated, the Gyropress Method has been widely applied for disaster prevention and infrastructure construction in urban area. Though the Gyropress Method has yet to be adopted in ASEAN Countries, the potential of this advanced technology to be adopted in the local construction market has been the talking point for geotechnical engineers. 1. Seawall Construction for Road Development at Marina Coastal Expressway, Singapore Marina Coastal Expressway (MCE) connects Kallang-Paya Lebar Expressway (KPE) and East Coast Parkway (ECP) in the east to the Ayer Rajah Expressway (AYE) in the west, with direct connections to Marina South and Straits View areas (Fig. 1). With the development of Marina Bay Financial Centre and Gardens by the Bay, MCE caters for the expected increase in traffic volume around the Marina Bay area. The dual five-lane, 5km long expressway will support the large number of commuters who travel to offices, homes and attractions in the Marina Bay area. Fig. 1.
