New World, Old World

Look at the picture above. Very futuristic design, right? Well, it belongs to our beloved SingPost. Yes. Our post office headquaters in it's finest. The design reflects Singapore's progress towards modernization and also as a developed nation. We've come a long way since independence. This area used to be a kampong, a swampy area. But look at it now. Industrialized and the landscape is ever evolving. As I'm writing this blog, construction is still on-going in the surrounding area...
Now look at the picture below. With all this modernity and aggressive development going on, there's still room for improvement....
Sometimes, I do wish that Singapore's progress can slow down abit. Things changes too fast. If you will to leave Singapore, say 3 years ( work or studies abroad ), you'll be amazed, no SHOCK, when you couldn't recognized the place anymore. Yup, that's how fast things are moving in Singapore....
