On the contrary, we hope that conservation can aid development and vice-versa. \u201c<\/p>\n<p>She pointed out that at present, talks about development and conservation are always framed in terms of trade-offs \u2013\u00a0 e.g. do we want to keep land for our ancestors or make room for our descendants. Why do we not talk about other issues, e.g. are we not willing to let go of a site that could potentially be a world heritage site? In the face of global warming and the need for nature to maintain stable temperatures, can we afford to lose a site of certain environmental value to us?<\/p>\n<p>Claire is of the opinion that government and society should take this opportunity to reframe the conversation and exercise our mutual imaginations to allow more perspectives to bear on this matter. This frame of mind will expand the possibilities in our dialogue.<\/p>\n<p>a.t.BB also shared its plans for Bukit Brown in their application to WWF.\u00a0 They hope to collaborate with National Heritage Board (NHB) and NParks and turn Bukit Brown into a cultural heritage site and a nature park to attract visits.\u00a0 Bukit Brown will retain most of its original state with the addition of basic facilities such as rest rooms. a.t.BB will continue to provide free guided walks and to increase its community outreach especially towards the young.<\/p>\n<p>With the listing, a.t.BB hope to heighten overall public awareness of BB\u2019s repository of cultural heritage both locally and abroad.\u00a0 E.g. instead of expensive overseas trips to learn about culture and heritage , educational institutions could look first at visits to local sites. a.t.BB also hopes to promote edu-tourism by attracting more visits by foreign students and overseas academic scholars.<\/p>\n<p>As the a.t.BB current expenses are still manageable, it does not have any plan to apply for WWF funding.<\/p>\n<p>According to Catherine Lim, another founder, WMF routinely provides \u00a0assistance to countries that wish to elevate WMF sites to UNESCO sites.\u00a0 She therefore hopes that Singapore\u2019s current UNESCO application for Botanical Gardens could in future be twinned with Bukit Brown to increase the chances for both sites to be listed. a.t.BB also hopes that it could work closely with Penang and Malacca as UNSECO sites, to raise the profiles of both countries\u2019 cultural heritage<\/p>\n<p>Catherine said that since the founding of BB in Dec 2011, over 7,000 people have been acquainted with Bukit Brown, through the free tours conducted by it. a.t.BB could also learn from the other WMF listed sites about how to raise awareness of BB.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>The report first appeared in Zaobao on 11 October 2013 and is translated by Brownie Fabian Tee.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Zaobao&#8217;s\u00a0 Sunday 13 October round-up of quotable quotes also\u00a0 included the quote by Claire Leow:<\/p>\n<h2><em><span style=\"color: #999999;\"><strong>&#8220;I absolutely do not think that the dialogue between preservation and development is necessarily confrontational.
