A government-funded S$14 million project gives St Luke's Community Hospital its first main expansion in 16 years. Including a new seven storey which houses a day rehabilitation centre, pharmacy, outpatient clinic and offices.

The Bukit Batok hospital has increased of 25 percent in the number of beds and went from 185 to 233. Moreover, 20 percent more staff was hired in addition to the 350.

The expansion aims to serve the country's ageing population by providing 1,800 beds in community hospitals by 2020.

The Hospital was founded in 1996 and is among the six community hospitals that provide step-down care for patients recovering from serious illnesses.

The occupancy rate rose steadily from 80 percent in 2009 to 87 percent last year, higher than the 80 percent average for all community hospitals. The demand is overwhelming, the expansion was necessary to avoid patient waiting for too long.

To enable people to have more leisure time amongst greenery and nature, the National Parks Board is adding on to its existing 110 km of Park Connectors Network – an island-wide network of linear open spaces around major residential areas that links parks and nature sites in Singapore.

The new 63 km route is currently in the midst of construction, and locals will be able to enjoy afternoons of cycling, walking or jogging along a hefty 300 km of green corridors around the island when it is completed in 2015. No matter where you live in Singapore, you can begin your outdoor walks or cycling trips at a Park Connector in your area.

Some existing Park Connectors that you can consider as starting points for your activities include the Bedok Park Connector in the east, the Sembawang Park Connector in the north, the Kallang Park Connector in the south, and the Bukit Batok East Park Connector in the west of Singapore.

From the start, Like That One by Belle and Cheu has been a guerilla operation. They wanted to bring some fun, some DIY spirit, and some vintage cool to Singapore. They take the 'Reduce, Re-Use, Recycle" mantra very seriously. Tearing down Indonesian houses to make furniture is more sustainable than felling trees, but less so than just fixing up a teak sideboard from the 60s! As a bonus, these chic "green" pieces often use wide, solid planks that few can replicate today.

Singaporean furniture of the recent past has unique features not seen elsewhere. One is the use of traditionally Art Deco lines and creaftsmanship well into the 1960s. Another is the tendency to combine high quality wood with laminate tops, sometimes with a matching wood-grain hue but at other times with the faded pinks and blues or boomerang prints you might find on the counters in a 1950s American kitchen.

For them, restoring or re-purposing vintage Singapore furniture goes past nostalgia and moves into the realm of creating a sense of place, of rootedness, in a city that prizes the new. From treasuring the tropical combination of wood and laminate, to rescuing industrial pieces from defunct stores and factories, Like That One is there, ahead of the curve.
