IN SINGAPORE, land gets constantly re-purposed to meet evolving needs, including rising housing demand. Sites previously occupied by schools, golf courses, turf clubs and so forth may get re-purposed to build homes and other amenities.
New Housing and Development Board (HDB) flats will be built in prime areas such as the Greater Southern Waterfront and Bukit Timah.
