fWotD Episode 2412: City Hall MRT station Welcome to featured Wiki of the Day where we read the summary of the featured Wikipedia article every day.The featured article for Tuesday, 12 December 2023 is City Hall MRT station.City Hall MRT station is an underground Singapore Mass Rapid Transit (MRT) interchange station on the North–South line (NSL) and East–West line (EWL). Situated in the Downtown Core district, it is underneath Stamford Road near the road junctions with North Bridge Road and St Andrew's Road. The station is near landmarks such as the former City Hall, Raffles City, the Padang, St Andrew's Cathedral and the Cenotaph.Initially named St Andrew's MRT station, the station was included in the early plans for the original MRT network in 1982. Construction of the tunnels between the City Hall and Raffles Place stations required the draining of the Singapore River. The station opened on 12 December 1987 as part of the MRT extension to Outram Park station. Cross-platform transfers between the NSL and EWL began on 28 October 1989, ahead of the opening of the MRT eastern line extension to Tanah Merah station on 4 November which split the MRT network into two lines. A designated Civil Defence shelter, the three-level station features a mural by Simon Wong which depicts government buildings in the area.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 06:31 UTC on Wednesday, 13 December 2023.For the full current version of the article, see City Hall MRT station on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm Joanna Neural.

Parler avec les rivières. Plutôt que des rivières ou aux rivières. Les rivières sont naturellement bavardes mais nous ne les écoutions pas. Très peu de rivières dans les poèmes ou les romans jusqu'alors. Or, il a fallu qu'elles s'assèchent, soudain l'été dernier – comme si elles faisaient unanimement grève tout à coup ! — pour que nous les entendions. Les rivières, les fleuves sont pourtant depuis toujours notre respiration extérieure. Nos propres corps sont faits d'eau et participent par conséquent au grand circuit de l'eau. Ne pas l'entendre alimentait à notre insu notre sècheresse. Les deux poètes parleront parallèlement l'un à l'autre mais aussi en confluence. Ils partent de sources différentes. Le premier, l'aîné, Jacques Darras conduit depuis plus de quarante ans un cycle de 8 poèmes, achevé en 2022, irrigué par un petit fleuve côtier de la Manche, la Maye. Il vient de publier un recueil de 20 gouaches et 20 poèmes « Je suis une rivière » où il déplore et chante à la fois la fragilité menacée de son héroïne. Son cadet Pierre Vinclair, a vécu en résidence dans la presqu'île de Singapour sur les rives de la Singapore River, la suivant, la décrivant, la dépliant dans un court livre, Bumboat, publié dans la collection « Les Passeurs d'Inuits », que dirige Jacques Darras. Au contraire de la Maye, la Singapore River est une rivière urbaine, marchante, marchande, dont Pierre dresse un portrait objectif, pour ne pas dire objectiviste. Soit la rencontre de deux littératures aux antipodes l'une de l'autre. Jacques Darras l'eau verte épaisse où le soleil se prend les pieds dans ses rayons comme un vinyle d'eau renversée et l'on descend avec le hoquet de l'histoire le peuple hirsute des quatre coins de l'Asie venu faire du milieu fructifier l'argent le long de la rivière et dans le temps Pierre Vinclair, Bumboat À lire – Jacques Darras, Le Chœur maritime de la Maye, Le Castor Astral, 2022 – Je suis une rivière, éditions de la librairie du labyrinthe, 2022 – Quatre à quatre vers le Nord, Cours toujours éditions, 2022. Pierre Vinclair, Bumboat, coll. « Les Passeurs d'Inuits », Le Castor Astral, 2022, L'éducation géographique, Flammarion, 2022.

Badang was a powerful man from the Malay world who lived in Sungai Batu Pahat, Malaysia. He was active in the courts of the Raja Sri Wikrama of the Kingdom Of Singapura. He was also associated with various historical artefacts, such as the Singapore Stone.According to a legend, Badang was a slave who had been tasked with clearing the forest for his owner. He caught a genie in his net at the Singapore River. In exchange for his freedom, the latter agreed to let him be the strongest man in the land. Upon eating the genie's vomit, Badang became very strong and could uproot trees effortlessly.Badang was a Malay boy from Malaysia's Batu Pahat River. He was the only son of two farmers who worked hard until their deaths. When he was young, he worked as a coolie for a rich farmer named Orang Kaya Nira Sura in Sumatra, Indonesia.Despite being a slave, Badang had royal blood as he reportedly descended from a prince from the Bugis tribe who married a woman from the Malay community in Bintan. His father, on the other hand, was from the Ming Dynasty. Legend has it that his lineage came from the blood of a Chinese prince who married a woman from the same tribe. Badang eventually became the army chief of the Sultan of Johor. His descendant was Hang Mahmud, whose family had also been involved in the wars in Malacca and Johor. Hang Tuah, son of Hang Mahmud, was a legend who is regarded as a great warrior.Read more at https://mythlok.com/badang/
