After some “self-profession” exploring for Project 1, we had to extend our exploration to our local neighborhood for Project 2. During the draw lots session, I hand picked Pasir Ris for my area of exploration. One good thing about it is that, I rarely wander around the East. It was a good chance for me to know more about Pasir Ris.
On 14 Feb, while all couples are spending their lovey dovey times, I spent my afternoon exploring Pasir Ris, with my friend.
I first ventured at the Pasir Ris Town Park. It’s around 5 mins walk from Pasir Ris MRT. That day, even though it’s a weekday, there were multiple fishers fishing around the park. If you like prawning or crabbing, there’s a shop that opens 24-hour at Pasir Ris Town Park.

Next, I traveled to Pasir Ris Park as it’s one of the well-known places of Pasir Ris. At the start of venturing, rain drops started falling, accompanied with it was strong gust of wind. 
After a while, the exploration went on. The maze garden wasn’t as long as I imagine, a few mins and I escaped the maze. The viewing tower was 3-storeys high and the air was really fresh. But the view outside was mostly blocked by trees, therefore I couldn’t really see much.
After that day’s trip, I felt really lost. As I do not have enough information or anything unique to say about Pasir Ris. Thereafter, I went back home to research more. Along the research, I found that there are quite a number of animal related shops/shelter/farms in Pasir Ris. During my consultation with Joy, she agreed that I should focus on this area of Pasir Ris. I finally found some direction to head to!! I refined my research to focus more on animal welfare groups than a collection of animal farms in Pasir Ris.
Today, I went down to Pasir Ris Farmway to look at the environment of the animal welfare groups. Most of them are not open to public, I was only able to see the stray dogs caged inside their compound. At SOSD, I saw the volunteers brought the dogs out for a walk. Most of the dogs were adult Mongrels.

I wasn’t able to talk to any personnel from the animal welfare groups, as most of the people there were volunteers at the dog shelter. I would email them for more details, if not I’ll ask if I’m able to use their information on web.
Till next post! Ciao!
