Keywords: "Bukit Brown is an oasis of greenery in the heart of Singapore, home to the graves of many of Singapore’s pioneers as well as several species of flora and fauna. It is also steeped in history, having been a battle site during the Second World War. A few years ago, it catalyzed an outpouring of civic activism when the government announced its plans to bisect the area with a major highway, and earmarked other parts of Bukit Brown for redevelopment as public housing. Several interest groups including the Nature Society and the Singapore Heritage Society petitioned for the preservation of Bukit Brown; however the decision was made to proceed with redevelopment plans." copyright artists publicdomain thebukitbrownindexbypostmuseum unearthedsingaporeartmuseum
