the programme Talking Point a heat map of Singapore in May, when the mean daily temperature was about 29 to 30 degrees Celsius.
Some parts of the island were slightly hotter than others: Jurong was one of them, and in the east, regions such as Bedok, Changi, Geylang, Kallang, Marine Parade, Tampines and Tanah Merah.

Chow also took presenter Steven Chia to a neighbourhood in Boon Keng, where they found, using a thermal camera, that the afternoon temperature of the ground was about 50 deg C.
“You see the high-rise, high-density public housing,” noted Chow. “You don’t have many trees … so you’ve got less shade.”
With vehicles on the road burning petrol and diesel, “a lot of waste heat” is also emitted. And heat trapped by the urban jungle is re-radiated out into the atmosphere.

Since Bukit Timah is coolest, there is no excuses for residents there to use aircon.

Indeed, temperatures in Boon Keng are a couple of degrees Celsius warmer than in Bukit Timah, he said, identifying the latter as “one of the coolest places in Singapore to live”.
For example, in Old Holland Road, where “there’s less concrete, there’s less asphalt, more grass, large gardens”, he described, its green spaces “cool the environment substantially”.

Bukit Timah is truly a paradise on earth. Good connectivity, few losers, tonnes of trees and hills to climb.
