SINGAPORE – About 31ha of forested areas in Bedok are slated for clearance by 2029, to make way for the future Bayshore housing precinct which will likely be ready from the mid-2030s.

The study by environmental consultancy DHI Water and Environment included baseline surveys conducted between April 25, 2022 and July 21, 2022, and covered 31.4ha of the 60ha development site, which is the equivalent of about 84 football fields in size. Housing projects in the area are likely to be ready in the mid- to late-2030s, based on that report which stated that site clearance works will take place in three phases. The first is slated to commence in 2023 and the entire site clearance is set for completion in 2029. Construction of housing will begin after site platform preparation works, with each project expected to take four to six years to complete, said the report.

The report said the development area is mostly low-lying, and will need to be raised to at least 4m Singapore height datum for flood protection purposes.

Myanmar’s junta must be part of dialogue, says Indonesia’s former foreign ministerHe said Asean must make clear to junta that it’s not ‘cost-free’ to stay out of meetings. Read more at straitstimes.com. straits_times Did the ex-minister speak to the Myanmar people ? Why speak with an opposing voice to confuse the current held position by Asean ? It is not for want of disengaging them. But the Junta did not keep to their part of the Asean agreement as far as I understand. The trust is waning. there's no solution to myanmar crisis. asean should kick myanmar out, so that asean centrality doesnt apply to future 'solutions' by any parties.
