Integrated Train Testing Centre

[veraltet] Das Integrated Train Testing Centre (ITTC) ist eine zukünftige Eisenbahnprüfanlage in Tuas, Singapur. Das ITTC wird auf dem Standort des früheren Raffles Country Club errichtet und ermöglicht die Prüfung von Schienenfahrzeugen und Schienensystemen für das MRT-System Singapurs. Der Bau der Anlage, der erstmals am 24. April 2019 angekündigt wurde, begann mit einem Spatenstich am 17. März 2021. Die Testanlage wird in Phasen von 2022 bis voraussichtlich 2025 fertiggestellt. Wenn es voll funktionsfähig ist, wird das ITTC die erste derartige Anlage im Südosten Asiens mit Werkstätten, einer Betriebszentrale, einem Verwaltungsgebäude und drei Arten von Gleisen für Sicherheitstests sein. Das ITTC wurde erstmals am 24. April 2019 von Verkehrsminister Khaw Boon Wan angekündigt. Khaw lobte es als „lohnende Investition“, die voraussichtlich einige hundert Millionen Dollar kosten werde, und erklärte, das ITTC werde „robuste“ Tests neuer Eisenbahnsysteme ermöglichen, ohne dazu MRT-Linien zeitweise schließen zu müssen. Darüber hinaus wird eine solche Einrichtung ein tieferes Fachwissen im Eisenbahnbetrieb und in der Instandhaltung ermöglichen. Der Auftrag 190 für die Planung und den Bau des ITTC wurde am 17. April 2020 an GS Engineering and Construction Corp (GS Engineering) mit einer Auftragssumme von 639,5 Mio. S $ (468,8 Mio. US $) vergeben. Am 17. März 2021 begann der Bau des ITTC mit einem Spatenstich. Das Testzentrum soll in zwei Phasen aufgebaut werden. Die erste Phase, die die Hochgeschwindigkeitsstrecke umfasst, soll bis Ende 2022 abgeschlossen sein, damit die neuen Züge der Stufe 6 der Circle Line im Jahr 2023 getestet werden können. Der Bau des ITTC wird voraussichtlich 2025 mit Fertigstellung der beiden anderen Teststrecken und anderer Einrichtungen abgeschlossen sein. Das ITTC wird in Tuas auf dem ehemaligen Gelände des Raffles Country Club errichtet, der ursprünglich für die jetzt stornierte Hochgeschwindigkeitsstrecke Kuala Lumpur - Singapur erworben wurde. Nach Fertigstellung bis 2025 wird das ITTC integrierte Systemtests für verschiedene Züge und Schienensysteme gleichzeitig ermöglichen, ohne dass vorhandene Betriebslinien für Tests verwendet werden müssen. Die vom Korea Railroad Research Institute entworfene Testanlage, wird ein Betriebskontrollzentrum, Testausrüstung und eine Werkstatt für Fahrzeuge umfassen. Das ITTC wird über eine Strecke von 11 Kilometern verfügen, die über verschiedene Arten von Signalisierungssystemen hinweg interoperabel sein wird und sowohl von der dritten Schiene als auch von der Oberleitung mit Freileitung gespeist wird. Die Teststrecken, die derzeit gebaut werden, umfassen: Eine geschlungene Ausdauerspur für Leistungstests. Eine kreisförmige Performance- und Integrationsspur mit einer verzweigten S-förmigen Spur. Eine gerade Hochgeschwindigkeitsstrecke mit minimaler Krümmung und Steigung, die Geschwindigkeitstests von bis zu 100 km/h ermöglicht. Abstell- und Wartungsgleise für größere Renovierungsarbeiten an vorhandenen Zügen. Bedingt durch die COVID-19-Pandemie in Singapur ist das Projekt um mehr als ein Jahr verzögert. Einzelnachweise

The station is served by both the KTM ETS and KTM Komuter Northern Sector services. The old, single-platform station, with its distinctive clock tower, was closed 29 January 2013 to facilitate the construction of a new modern station under the Ipoh–Padang Besar electrification and double-tracking project. A temporary station opposite the old station was constructed along Jalan Tanjung Bendahara, which remained in operation until the new station adjacent to the old one began operations on 12 June 2014. The old station has been conserved and transformed into the Railway Tavern restaurant and bar. In 2020, a century-old Hindu shrine, Sri Madurai Veeran, situated at the entrance of the station, was demolished to make way for a road project despite local objections.

Pulau Merambong

Pulau Merambong, formerly known as Pulo Ular, is an uninhabited island on the Straits of Johor. The island is dominated by mangrove swamp. It is located just 1 kilometre (0.62 miles) off the coast from Tuas, Singapore. Administratively, it is placed under the Johor Bahru District, Johor, Malaysia. Conservation Pulau Merambong is located within the single largest seagrass bed in the country. The bed extends from the island right up to the estuary of Pulai River in Johor. Dugongs and seahorses, which feed on seagrass, make their home in the nearby coral reefs. Environmentalists are concerned that the development of Port of Tanjung Pelepas is threatening the area and the livelihood of seahorses as well as dugongs and turtles. The island is planned to be gazette as a nature park with various environmental based NGOs funding it. Sovereignty dispute In the aftermath of the International Court of Justice (ICJ) ruling that saw Pedra Branca being awarded to Singapore, concerns on Malaysian sovereignty over Pulau Merambong have been raised. Some proponents on the Malaysian side have cited the Straits Settlement and Johore Territorial Waters Agreement of 1927 between the British Empire and its Straits Settlements colony claiming that the boundaries between Singapore and Johor were settled. On the Singaporean side, not much thought has been given over Pulau Merambong as of yet. Singaporean territorial waters incident On 13 April 2007, two Interceptor Crafts of the Special Task Squadron of Singapore's Police Coast Guard (PCG) were on ambush duty off Tuas in the vicinity of Tuas Jetty, when a speedboat with six illegal immigrants and cartons of cigarettes intruded into Singapore's territorial waters at about 9:30 pm from the direction of Malaysia. The speedboat sped off when approached by the police, resulting in a five-minute chase which ended with a collision between one of the crafts and the speedboat near Pulau Merambong. PK 50 capsized, while the speedboat was completely wrecked. Two officers were rescued from the scene within minutes with minor injuries, while another two were found dead. Three passengers on the intruding vessels were also rescued, and a fourth man found dead. The rest of the passengers were still missing. See also List of islands of Malaysia References

Sophia Flats

Sophia Flats is a condominium on Wilkie Road in Rochor, Singapore. The building, which was completed in 1920, has been gazetted for conservation. Description The three-storey building, which was painted in yellow and made with modern reinforced concrete, as well as infill brick and plaster walls, curves along the junction of Wilkie Road and Niven Road. It features a recessed ground floor, which allows for a "continuous" five-foot way. The building also feature "large" overhangs, tall ceilings and ventilators that were placed above windows. It houses 19 residential units. History The building was completed in 1920 by a Mr. Maricar, a "Mohammedan Indian", and was later acquired by Japanese company Ichigoya. The building was then purchased by F. J. DeWitt, a general manager of the Borneo Sumatra Trading Company. It was sold for $122,000 on 2 March 1948 following DeWitt's departure from the colony. It was estimated that, had the building been constructed in that year, it would have cost $300,000. Frank Benjamin, the founder of retail company FJ Benjamin, was born and lived in one of the building's units until the 1950s. In 1959, he established his first office in the building.

Teochew Building

Teochew Building is a historic building on Tank Road in Singapore. Completed in 1963, it jointly houses the Teochew Poit Ip Huay Kuan and the Ngee Ann Kongsi. History The land on which the building stands was previously the Tuan Mong High School. The building's construction, which cost millions, began in June 1961 and was expected to be completed by the middle of the next year. The ground floor of the building would be occupied by offices for the Teochew Poit Ip Huay Kuan and the Ngee Ann Kongsi while a large hall and stage with a maximum capacity of 1,000 people could be found on the second floor. The upper three floors was to house the 45 classrooms of the Tuan Mong High School. A $16,000 master clock, which would control the clocks in the classrooms, was to be installed in the central part of the building. The "Peking-style" building was designed by prominent local architect Ng Keng Siang. On 26 May 1963, the Ngee Ann College was officially opened within the building by Yong Nyuk Lin, then the Minister for Education. Chief Justice of Singapore Wee Chong Jin, Speaker of the Federation of Malaya Parliament Mohamed Noah Omar and Minister for National Development Tan Kia Gan attended the ceremony, while Prime Minister Lee Kuan Yew later attended a reception. The college moved to a larger premises in Clementi a few years later. In 1995, it was announced that the building was to undergo a $10 million renovation, after which the ground and first floors would be occupied by the Teochew cultural centre. The centre was to be used for various cultural activities, including art exhibitions, displays of Chinese and Teochew artifacts and the staging of Teochew operas. Renovation works had begun by September and were to be completed by 1997. In 1998, the Ngee Ann-Adelaide Education Centre private institution, formed through a partnership between the Ngee Ann Kongsi and the University of Adelaide, was opened in the building. The centre stopped accepting new students on 18 July 2016 after the university decided to end the partnership. The Ngee Ann Kongsi Heritage Hall was established within the building in March 2003 to "commemorate the entrepreneurial and sacrificial spirit of the pioneers of Ngee Ann Kongsi." The hall displays several artifacts and archives detailing the history of the Ngee Ann Kongsi. In April 2004, the Ngee Ann Kongsi Collections Gallery, an art gallery, was opened in the building. In 2017, the Ngee Ann Kongsi requested the Teochew Poit Ip Huay Kuan to vacate the building to allow for a $40 million redevelopment that was to begin on 1 July 2018. However, the Huay Kuan refused to do so and the ensuing dispute between the two organisations led to the redevelopment being delayed. Both organisations then began filing lawsuits against each other. On 7 December 2023, it was announced that the dispute had come to an end, with both organisations having come to an agreement. As a result, it was decided that the plans for redevelopment, which would involve the building's rear being demolished and replaced by a newer building, would be going forward. References
Whampoa Makan Place

Whampoa Makan Place is a hawker centre and wet market on blocks 90, 91 and 92 along Whampoa Drive in Whampoa, Singapore. The centre is divided into two sections, with one being the hawker centre, and the other being the wet market. It was opened in 1973, replacing the earlier Rayman Market. History Rayman Market The Municipal Special Markets Committee had begun considering the construction of a market off Balestier Road to serve the Rayman housing estate by 1949 "as an experiment." However, the committee felt that the need for a market serving the Tiong Bahru area was greater and so the construction of the Seng Poh Road Market was prioritised instead. Construction, began in December 1951, with the hawkers who had previously occupied the site being given until 2 December to vacate the space. The market was to be completed by the middle of the following year, and it was to house the displaced hawkers. Half of the market was to sell fish and meat while the other half was to sell vegetables, fruits and eggs. The tenants were to be given the "lowest possible pitch rentals". The market opened in November 1952 with 173 pitches and stalls. The building was reportedly similar in structure to the Seng Poh Road Market, though it was cheaper to construct, costing $235,000. In March 1971, Chua Sian Chin, then the Minister for Health, confirmed that the market would be demolished following the construction of a newer market in the area. It was demolished in 1973 along with the opening of Whampoa Market. Whampoa Makan Place The hawker centre, initially known as Whampoa Market and Food Centre, was opened in 1973, replacing Rayman Market. The food centre went under renovation in 2016, and was upgraded in 2007, being renamed as the Whampoa Makan Place. The food centre is also known for some of its stalls, such as Balestier Road Hoover Rojak, Beach Road Fish Head Bee Hoon, Huat Heng Fried Oyster and Liang Zhao Ji Duck Rice, all of which have been awarded the Michelin Bib Gourmand award. The market was included in the Balestier Heritage Trail in 2018. On 12 February 2017, a fire broke out in the Hi Leskmi Nasi Lemak stall in the food centre. The fire was extinguished by members of the public before firefighters arrived, and no one was injured. The food centre was temporarily closed on 22 July 2021, along with the Clementi 448 Market, as COVID-19 clusters at the food centres were linked to a COVID-19 cluster at the Jurong Port Fishery. The food centre was reopened on 6 August 2021, after deep cleaning and disinfection. The market was named after Hoo Ah Kay, a Chinese merchant who was commonly known as Whampoa. References

Construido en fases por el gobierno colonial británico entre 1891 y 1895, que se situó en Jalan Shaw (ahora Jalan Hang Tuah). La construcción comenzó con el muro de la prisión de 394 metros a un costo de 16.000 dólares, y que fue adornado con el mural más largo del mundo en algún momento de su historia. Las celdas eran pequeñas y oscuras, cada una equipada con una ventana del tamaño de una caja de zapatos. Para diciembre de 2012, el complejo de la prisión fue demolido en gran parte, dejando solo la puerta principal y una parte de la pared exterior en pie.

Fahrenheit 88

Fahrenheit 88 (previously known as KL Plaza) is a shopping centre in Bukit Bintang, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. The Fahrenheit 88 building reopened in August 2010 after extensive renovation. Management and leasing of the shopping centre are handled by the same company that manages the Pavilion Kuala Lumpur shopping centre. History The Fahrenheit 88 building was previously known as KL Plaza (shopping centre) and owned by Berjaya Leisure Berhad, a company of the Berjaya Group. One of the Malaysian outlets of French department store chain Printemps was located here. Earlier the outlet wanted to discontinue its operations at KL Plaza in September 1986 due to the lack of long-term viability. Mun Loong had its flagship outlet at KL Plaza, opened in 1987. Occupying a space of 90,000 square feet (8,400 m2), the outlet closed in mid-1996 due to Mun Loong being "unfavourable" with the new terms of KL Plaza's lease renewal. In 2007, Berjaya Group disposed of the KL Plaza building for a total consideration of RM470 million to the Pavilion Group. The sale consisted of the 5-storey shopping podium for RM425 million and 59 units of flats located on top of the shopping centre for RM45 million. In early 2010, a publicity exercise was embarked by the Pavilion team, with major local press reporting on the rebranding of the building as Fahrenheit 88, a name reflecting the average temperature in Malaysia (31.1 C). Building renovation works, already underway at that time and reportedly to cost RM100 million, were intended to entirely change the interior and exterior of the old and outdated building, with entrances repositioned and glass facades added, allowing ample natural light to illuminate the interior.
