Green Crested Lizard can be spotted at Bukit Batok Nature Park
During World War II, Lorong Sesuai site was selected by the Japanese as a memorial for the soldiers who died. The two pillars and 120 concrete steps leading to a transmission tower are the only remains. The significance and meaning of the location is conveyed to visitors via a memorial plaque that lies at the foot of the stairs. The park was later developed on an abandoned quarry site in 1988.
