In 1987, Singapore's first Prime Minister Lee Kwan Yew conceptualized a freshwater dam to be built across the Marina Channel. 21 years later, on 31st October 2008, Singapore's 15th reservoir was opened.

The 350m long dam serves 3 purposes - water storage, flood control, and recreation. It took a year and a half for the seawater to be replaced by rainwater.

Jurong Bird Park, featured in early episodes early in 2020, shifted in January 2024 to Mandai, to be next to Singapore Zoo, Night Safari & River Wonders. So, it was time to visit my feathered friends in their new digs, and get up close to the American Flamingos. The way the old place was laid out, you couldn't get that close. Now, in the Crimson Wetlands, I was just a few metres from them and finally heard the noise that the stars of the Miami Vice opening sequence sound like: it's not what you think!

Attempted Murder? On Orchard Road?!? Has Hear. Here. Singapore. pivoted to being a True Crime podcast? 

No - we're still 100% focussed on the sonic delights of Singapore, but with a newly acquired parabolic microphone, I've been recording birds. I started around my condo, then Botanic Gardens, Dempsey Hill and, finally, on to the famous shopping strip of Orchard Road, where things took a dark turn!

238880 Attempted Murder On Orchard Road

When you're ill, it's understandable to take a day off work after seeing a doctor who issues the necessary Medical Certificate, aka MC. But when you want a day off but haven't got the necessary annual leave allowance, it's a sly practice to "fake" being ill to get that MC and a free day off work!
