OBJECTIVES OF ABC PROGRAMME

 

The ABC Waters Programme captures the vision for Singapore’s catchments and waterways, which will be active, dynamic, full of life and activities (“Active”), aesthetically pleasing (“Beautiful”) and in good water quality (“Clean”) while achieving the “Active” and “Beautiful” components.

 

The ABC Waters Programme thus aims to achieve the following objectives:

 

To develop the water bodies beyond their functional use as resources for water collection, storage and drainage into vibrant, clean and aesthetically pleasing lifestyle attractions where recreational and communal bonding activities can take place;

 

To tap ideas, expertise and resources from the People-Public-Private (3P) in developing and managing the catchments and water bodies as new community spaces, while continuing to safeguard the water quality and safety to the community;

 

To act as an umbrella programme for integrating and holistically managing all initiatives involving catchments and water bodies; and

 

To get community closer to the water and instill stewardship.
