Sago Palm


Cycas, Dioon & Zamia


Sago Plams belong to a group of plants of more than 200 species that are native to East Africa, Central America, Australia, Southeast Asia, Japan and Polynesia.


They are not palms but belong to a group of primitive plants, whose ancestry date back to the Mesozoic period about 65 - 250 million years ago.


These plants are very hardy and adapt very well to grow in dry climate and poor soils. Some of the Sago Palms in this garden are more than 50 years old.


The seeds and juice of these plants are used in native medicine.

TERMINAL 1


Singapore Changi Airport's oldest terminal operated as the sole terminal from its opening on 1 July 1981 right up until the opening of Terminal 2 nine years later. Configured in an H-shaped layout to maximise the number of aerobridges that may be built, it underwent two major upgrading works over its lifespan. A major refurbishment was completed in 1995 at a cost of S$170 million and work to extend two finger piers to add 14 aerobridges at a cost of S$420 million that took place from 1996 to 1999. Today, the terminal spans an area of 308,000 m² and can accommodate a maximum passenger capacity of 21 million passengers a year.


On 7 March 2012, Minister of State for Transport Josephine Teo said that the open-air car park between Terminal 1 and Changi's iconic control tower will be redeveloped into a multi-use complex. This new complex will be integrated with the existing building, and will increase Terminal 1's public areas, pick-up driveways, and car park spaces. With this expansion, Terminal 1's handling capacity will increase from 21 to 24 million passengers per annum. The expansion of Terminal 1 will go together with Terminal 4.


As of 12 July 2012, a $500 million facelift for Terminal 1 has been completed, completing the terminal's largest renovation to date, involving works on its facade and halls under a theme called "Tropical City". About 22,000 m2 have been added to the building, bringing the total floor space of T1 to about 308,000 m2. The larger floor area provides for more spatial comfort, better passenger flow, additional facilities and expanded retail and F&B offerings. The refurbishment includes the installation of a two-part kinetic sculpture, Kinetic Rain, which was billed as the largest kinetic sculpture in the world.


The Southwest Finger of Level 3 of Terminal 1 has the head office of Jetstar Asia Airways and Scoot.
