THE Founders' Memorial Committee has proposed that Bay East Garden be the site of a tribute to Singapore's founding leaders - and that the memorial be opened to the public by 2025, in time to celebrate Singapore's 60th year of independence.
The submission by the committee came after the 15-member found more public support for locating the memorial at Bay East Garden than at Fort Canning Park, because Bay East Garden's "park setting and proximity to water is a good reflection of Singapore's status as a Garden City".
