PHOTO 1: A Singaporean flag proudly displayed from the balcony of an apartment that forms part the colourful Rocher Centre apartment complex. These apartment blocks are painted in pink, green or red and are unmistakable landmarks on the outskirts of downtown Singapore. It may be easy to be fooled by the beautiful exterior of the buildings, however, the whole Rocher Centre was scheduled for demolition back in 2016 predominantly due to the neglect and lack of restoration the building suffered as it is the home of the less affluent citizens of this mega-rich city. Demolition finally began in June 2018 and the iconic landmark will give way to a new highway. PHOTO: Casey Delport
