If you visited the Botanic Gardens recently, you might have noticed the beautifully restored Atbara (1898) and Inverturret (1906) bungalows at the Gallop Road extension. I’m so glad that after being in a state of disrepair for many years, NParks and SLA finally decided on restoring these two bungalows that have often been associated as the oldest black and white.

A 29-year-old Bangladeshi worker at a Land Transport Authority (LTA) construction site beside the Changi MRT depot died yesterday morning after a workplace accident.
This comes after five workplace fatalities in the two weeks between late last month and early this month, prompting the labour movement to urge companies to prioritise and safeguard workers safety.
SHEET PILES
The Ministry of Manpower (MOM) said the latest accident occurred in Koh Sek Lim Road, which runs into the Changi MRT depot. The police said they were alerted to the accident at 9.58am yesterday.
