Edmond WongGUEST
It's very convenient that the Singapore Tourism Board reached out to us and considered us as, uh, collaborators, uh, to see if we could help feature Katong-Joo Chiat as another new precinct for tourists to visit.
Ken DelbridgeHOST
For most visitors, Katong and Joo Chiat is the headline Peranakan neighborhood in Singapore.
Ken DelbridgeHOST
You see it from the articles in the press and social media videos.
Edmond WongGUEST

Edmond WongGUEST

Daniel MartinHOST
Was there, like, some lines or some stations where it's like, whoa, property really jumped because of this station?
Nicholas FangGUEST
I think the Circle Line and also the, uh, Thomson-East Coast Line, especially the Thomson-East Coast Line that runs, um, towards the eastern part of Singapore, uh, that will have a stronger effect because the, uh, the eastern part of Singapore, when it runs through Marine Parade, Katong, and, uh, Sea Club and so on, there are more private housing, and that is a more matured housing estate as well.
Daniel MartinHOST
