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. -

The new service will provide greater connectivity and an alternative travel option for Woodlands residents travelling to and from areas in the CBD during weekday morning and evening peak-hours (excluding public holidays). Parallel Service 951E will operate two one-way trips on weekday mornings at 7.30 am and 7.45 am from Woodlands Street 82, Woodlands Avenue 4 and Woodlands Avenue 1 to areas within the CBD such as Orchard Road, Bras Basah Road, Nicoll Highway, Collyer Quay, Raffles Quay and Shenton Way.

Nature Society (Singapore)'S Position on Bukit Brown
Nature Society (Singapore)’s Position on Bukit Brown Summary The Bukit Brown Cemetery has garnered a good deal of attention recently following the announcement of plans to build a road that will serve as an improved alternative to Lornie Road as an integral component of Singapore’s Outer Ring Road System. The Nature Society (Singapore) has studied the natural heritage of the Bukit Brown for over twenty years and feels that alternatives to current plans for the area can be considered; alternatives that will boost the already‐substantial value of the area to Singaporeans and to the nation’s natural heritage without unduly compromising the integrity of Singapore’s road and transportation network. We believe that gains in ecosystem services, sustainability of our threatened natural heritage, and enhanced educational and recreational opportunities for Singaporeans can more than justify seeking alternatives to current plans for the area. 1 I. Background Map 1 The nature area of attention is the general area bounded by Kheam Hock Road, the Pan‐Island Expressway (PIE), Thomson Road and Lornie Road, excluding the Police Academy, the Singapore Polo Club, the Caldecott Hill Estate, and the Caldecott Broadcast Centre, but including the Mount Pleasant Road housing estate (refer to Map 1). The area is estimated to be about 233 hectares in size. Over the decades, wild vegetation such as the following trees ‐ Terentang (Campnosperma auriculatum), Giant Mahang (Macaranga gigantea), Waringin (Ficus benjamina), Albizia (Paraserianthes falcataria), African Tulip (Spathodea campanulata) – and many others have colonized and proliferated all over the cemetery, transforming a large part of it into woodlands interspersed with patches of grasslands and scrubland. -

It can also determine city or locality centroids, as well as postal code centroids. Geocode Address Global handles street addresses in the native language and format. For example, a typical French formatted address might have a street name of Rue des Remparts. A typical German formatted address could have a street name Bahnhofstrasse. Note: Geocode Address Global does not support U.S. addresses. To geocode U.S. addresses, use Geocode US Address. The countries available to you depends on which country databases you have installed. For example, if you have databases for Canada, Italy, and Australia installed, Geocode Address Global would be able to geocode addresses in these countries in a single stage. Before you can work with Geocode Address Global, you must define a global database resource containing a database for one or more countries. Once you create the database resource, Geocode Address Global will become available. Geocode Address Global is an optional component of the Enterprise Geocoding Module.
