Kampong Lorong Buangkok

CRK

baru2 ni kat berita tv9 ada siarkan berita ttg Kampong Lorong Buangkok, kampung terakhir kat S'pore. kg tu bakal dimajukan tahun dpn, bermakna slps ni tak ada lagi wujud kampung kat S'pore. sungguh menyedihkan.

The Last Kampung

Category : heritage

Jessie ("Jessdo") wrote to the Nature Singapore mailing list yesterday (29 Mar 2005):

    'I was in Jalan Kayu recently (early March 2005) when I decided to visit Kampong Lorong Buangkok, the last kampong on mainland Singapore. I had heard that this kampong is also known as "Selak Kain" (to pull up one's sarong/skirt) due to it being prone to flooding.

    There are still a few households there, mainly Chinese and Malay villagers leading simple lifestyle. Among the surrounding greenery, there's a very interesting trek through some forest and remnants of kampong gardens leading to a wide canal which looked like a mini "yellow river of China." Egrets and herons were spotted near the banks.

    I was glad I had the opportunity to visit the kampong, when it's still alive. It'll certainly be a great loss if this last kampong finally dies out in future.'

nilai sejarah maybe tak ada, tapi nilai sentimental tu ada
being the last kampung, jadi ada baiknya kekalkan atau bangunkan sebagai kampung budaya yg mengekalkan keaslian kampung tu, benarkan org kg terus menetap kat situ

sy ada terbaca di laman blog, apa yg menarik ialah semangat kejiranan yg kuat tanpa mengira kaum. contohnya kaum cina kat kg tu tak makan babi sbg menghormati jiran2 berbangsa melayu dan tuan tanah yg berbangsa cina mengenakan sewa yg sangat2 minimum kpd org kg, lebih kurang RM14.00 sebulan, takpun boleh bayar dlm bentuk beras atau sayur..

singapore nak maju dlm semua aspek. tanah sekangkang kera kenalah gitau dunia diorg lebih maju. baru org sedar kewujudan diorg. jangan diorg tambak laut utk besarkan negeri tu sudah.

Sad ending. Kg tu bukan besar mana. Apa salahnya kekalkan dan cuba perbaiki kelemahan saliran kat kg tu. sebenarnya ramai org spore yg menghargai warisan kg, ada sentimental value. Boleh dimajukan sbg tempat tarikan, homestay etc.
