I hope these fields will never be built on. I would consider it a travesty if it happened, since so much history is represented by these green spaces. In our bid to generate wealth by packing in more buildings, we have to be sensitive to what the place had meant to people and its heritage roots.” A resident observed and wrote this in The Straits Times.

Despite Pek Kio (translated from Hokkien, it means White Bridge) retaining its cultural identity through its name, modernity have seeped into every nook and cranny. Perhaps it is this reason that has most Singaporeans forgetting this locale, and with it bringing some relief that some ‘hidden’ gems remain accessible. As much as we understand how heritage is important, there is an inevitability time will catch up, and developments will happen. Before they do, let’s catch a glimpse, retain a part of them in our collective memories. On this walk, we share, reveal and gush about these “Kampong” Gems.
