Singapore is known for rapid growth and cutting edge technology, architecture, etc. And currently - though not unusually - there are new construction projects in every direction. I heard a joke yesterday..."What is the national bird of Singapore?"..."The building crane." And it's true - they're everywhere. I'll have to get a picture posted of the Marina Bay area where they're constructing a couple of casino resorts - there are more building cranes than you can count.One of Singapore's latest and greatest - the Kallang-Paya Lebar Expressway (KPE) tunnel is a 12 km underground expressway. It's the longest of its kind in Southeast Asia and it opens tomorrow on our little island of Singapore.
Last weekend they had a run and lantern parade through the new tunnel for fun - and to try to break a Guinness World Record.
