STOMPer Aborist noticed that the trees in this Bukit Batok carpark have their leaves all trimmed away, and wonders what is the point of having 'botak' trees.
He says:
"These pictures were taken at the carpark at Blk 331, Bukit Batok St 33.
"As I was passing the car park I noticed that the trees were all 'botak' and they looked so pathetic.
"I understand there is a need to trim the trees if the branches are overgrown or when the crown blocks out the light from the street lamps.
"By all means trim the branches but why make them bald?
"Now in the afternoon the carpark is as hot as an oven."
