This publication showcases the shaping of Singapore in the last 30 years through the planning and urban design efforts of the Urban Redevelopment Authority in collaboration with its public and private sector partners. Much of the Singapore of today is the end result of this 30-year effort. As such, the story of Singapore's shaping is told through 188 contemporary photographs of Singapore by 19 photojournalists from five Singapore Press Holdings newspapers: The Straits Times, Lianhe Zaobao, The New Paper, Streats and Berita Harian. The publication also offers a glimpse into the Singapore of the next 30 years in an audio-visual format
