Bukit Batok Memorial
The Bukit Batok Memorial was located on top of Bukit Batok Hill upon which once stood two war memorials built by Australian POW's to commemorate the war dead of the Japanese and the Allies who fought during the decisive Battle of Bukit Timah in Singapore during the Second World War.
The two memorials were destroyed after the war and only the road and long stairs leading to them formerly marks its legacy today. A small memorial on the foot of the steps commemorates the sufferings of the Australian POW's during the Japanese occupation of Singapore.
