About this Event
Once, part of the massive SAF (Singapore Armed Forces) training areas, the villagers here were accustomed to soldiers stealing a rambutan or two during the fruit seasons. Villages dotted the entire stretch of Jalan Ulu Sembawang. Most of us have forgotten that this road once led all the way to Sembawang Road.
On its way, the route passed through several farms that look much like the Cameron Highlands. The ponds that kept the ducks busy had an authentic kampong look (and feel). The veggie farms, though without modern technology, looked much like they were professionally manicured.
All these ended when Singapore decided that we cannot look into the past with loving tenderness. To move ahead, we must look ahead to new challenges. Today, part of the PCN (Park Connector Network), Ulu Sembawang sits forlorn in its own quiet days - while awaiting its future. But, for the true nature lovers, this presents an opportunity – to watch and admire The Ulu Sembawang Sunrise Trail.
