英語/シンガポール国立公園写真集「Naturally Yours, Singapore」Tan Wee Kiat/タン・ウィ・キャット(シンガポール国 立公園前CEO)著 Chew Yen Fook撮影 1992年 The National Parks Board発行 100頁 27×25.9×1.5㎝ 0.83㎏ Hardcover Dustjacket 【National Parks HPより】Dr Tan Wee Kiat, CEO of NParks is retiring on 15 February 2006. He will be succeeded by Mr Ng Lang. Dr Tan joined the Civil Service in 1983. He was Executive Director of the former National Parks Board in 1990 and was appointed CEO of the reconstituted National Parks Board in July 1996. Under his helm, Dr Tan charted new directions for NParks by initiating several key projects such as the Streetscape Greenery Masterplan and Skyrise Greenery.
