Bidadari -- the Second Bukit Brown?

Note the point towards the end where such places which are the repository of our cultural heritage must not be allowed to go away 'gently into the good night'. Their obliteration will lead to a loss of our history, leading to cultural amnesia, as their concrete existence is no longer there to remind us of our past. Having them documented before they are demolished and incorporated into the design and planning of the new estate sitting on its grounds may be a viable alternative, but nonetheless, an inferior one. Our future generation may grow up having little or no inkling of the past which they do not have a chance to inhabit as there are no concrete reminders of it.

Sample Qn:
1) There is no value in nostalgia. Comment.
2) How important is it for people in Singapore to care about the conservation of its buildings?
