re: ZZM's quote/list of developments:
What do they all have in common? No-one knows WTH most of those places are, so far away are they!
I read it in a SG property round-up.... thus:
-------------------------------
'Industrial
Largest dormitory to feature integrated facilities (10 Aug – ST)
Tuas View Dormitory at Tuas South Avenue 1 is slated to open at the end of August. The 16,800-bed complex over 20 four-storey blocks will be the largest on the island and will open in phases. The development will also feature a minimart, beer garden, food court and recreational options such as a 250-seat cinema and a cricket field. '
----------------------------------
[Will they also feature patrolling guardsmen with batons and rottweilers? You know, to 'keep the natives in their place'?]

13 years ago they were still 'setting' after the reclamation ....
and those days driving around that area was a near roller coaster ride, with the roads dipping in or rising!!

btw, most waste processing plants/incinerators are in that neighborhood


Yeah, I saw the same article. I love the name: "Tuas View". Hah!JR8 wrote:re: ZZM's quote/list of developments:
