...Given the small land size of Singapore, what are the main urban obstacles facing the citizens? It is because of Singapore’s small land size that we’ve had to reconcile liveability, environmental sustainability, and economic competitiveness more so than many other cities, even as urban density increases with population growth. As a city-state, Singapore has limited resources. The scarcity of land has been and will continue to be a challenge we face, both for our citizens and the government. The small land area is related to other urban challenges such as traffic congestion and maintaining a liveable environment with adequate greenery and a sense of space. The challenge of balancing economic and population growth with liveability and sustainability is multi-faceted. Besides policy and technology innovations, the key is for all stakeholders to work together – government, businesses and the people to engage in positive interactions and collaborate on all fronts in order to overcome the urban obstacles. As many cities globally face increasing urban density, Singapore’s experience in ensuring a liveable and sustainable environment in spite of our population density is very relevant. At the same time, Singapore has much to learn from other cities. This is why platforms such as the World Cities Summit play a crucial role in facilitating necessary sharing and learning. The World Cities Summit from June 1-4 will have more than 130 mayors and city leaders gathering in Singapore, along...

...“The Big Two-Hearted River: Part I”: The Trek to Life If only the past lit up as simply as a room illuminates at the flick of a switch. Yet the overwhelming darkness of a memory can never brighten; despairingly, a soldier’s worst nightmares overshadow his dreams and cloud his days. In Ernest Hemingway’s “Big Two-Hearted River: Part I,” a wounded soldier returns home, scouring the wreckage of his life for sanity and spiritual restoration. The short story presents a journey through symbolism, metaphor, and imagery, pessimistically depicting the battles that a soldier faces after war’s mortars shatter his livelihood. In this story, Nick embarks on a journey to cope with the horrific memories that haunt his every thought and action. As he passes through the burned-over town of Seney to his ideal camping ground, Nick tries to forget about his nightmarish past through the distractions that nature flourishes. Charles Oliver reveals in Hemingway A to Z the tension tugging Nick’s thoughts back from present to past: “Nick is on the camping trip in order to not think about whatever it is that has traumatized him. . . . Nick is working hard to forget it so he can get his life back together” (26). As Nick treks alone through the forest, he allows nature to soothe his mind and body and guide him back to his roots, abandoning his concerns. Though the war has ended, and Nick survived, he feels as though his soul has already died. Nick’s trip satisfies his disposition as an avid camper...
