Bulim is a sub-zone of Jurong West, Singapore.〔()〕 This sub-zone comprised businesses, educational institutions, residential developments and civic and community institutions. ==History== Prior to the 1990s, the sub-zone was part of the Bulim estate〔(Where is the Location of that Artillery Gun? A Second Shot Mission ).〕 (a Slum) and where the Bulim Hill Cemetery (a Chinese cemetery) was located. In 1984, the cemetery was closed〔(武林山坟场关闭 )〕 and exhumed thereafter to make way for the Kranji and Pan Island expressways.〔(今昔清明 )〕〔(Kranji Expressway (KJE) )〕 This segregated the Bulim estate and its western section became a sub-zone of Jurong West〔(New Jurong West to be twice as big )〕 and was given the name Wenya. In the 1990s, the development of Wenya began. Originally designed to be a residential sub-zone, the first two housing estates were completed in 2000〔(Jurong West Street 24 )〕 and 2002〔(Jurong West Street 25 )〕 respectively, complemented with the re-location of Corporation Primary〔(Corporation Primary School's history )〕 and Westwood Secondary schools to the area in 2001, and the building of associated facilities for living. In 2005, the Housing and Development Board released two land parcels〔(Final Tender Results )〕 in the sub-zone for interim uses.〔(PROPOSED INTERIM USES FOR PLOTS 1 &2 AT JURONG WEST STREET 25 )〕 In 2007, the sub-zone was however re-zoned to be an Industrial area and the eastern section (occupying majority of the sub-zone) carved out and re-designed as Wenya Industrial Park.〔(The Big Picture ).〕 In 2012, a study〔(Wenya Industrial Estate )〕 was conducted to assess a new road network at the sub-zone for the industrial development. This led to the construction of Wenya Avenue and Wenya Street in 2013〔(Proposed Construction of Roads, Drains and Sewers at Wenya (Phase 1) ).〕 In 2014, the names of Wenya Avenue and Wenya Street〔(URA Masterplan 2013, which shows the original names of the roads concerned )〕 were changed to Bulim Avenue and Bulim Street respectively. This indicates a possible rename of the sub-zone to Bulim - to recognise the heritage of this area. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Bulim」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
