History
Hougang:
Hougang is seven sub-districts: Hougang, Trafalgar, Rosyth, Lorong Ah Soo, Tai Keng, Defu Industrial Park, and Sungei Serangoon. The name “Hougang” is the literal Hanyu pinyin of “Ow Kang,” which means “beyond the river” in the Chinese dialect Hokkien. Hougang was once a town filled with Chinese Teochew or Hokkien immigrants. In 1928, the British blocked off Trafalgar Street in Hougang. It is now known as Buangkok and has a hospital for people suffering from chronic and mental diseases.
Punggol:
Under the “Punggol 21” initiative, the City Redevelopment Board intends to turn Punggol into Punggol New Town. Like many other areas Punggol in Singapore, called after Malay terms, gets its name from the Malay word “Punggol,” which means to hurl sticks at the branches of fruit trees to pull the fruit off the trunk. The term also refers to a wholesale market for forest fruits and goods. Before the 1970s, Punggol was known for its rubber, poultry, and pig farming. It is now a new development with HDB apartments, condos, and private residences facing the sea.
Sengkang:
The Sengkang planning area contains Sengkang New Town, a satellite city of the Housing and Development Board, and the rural region of Jalan Kayu. In Chinese, Sengkang means “rich port.” In 2005, dismantling the old Punggol Rural Center was to make room for new high-rise residential structures. Sengkang is now a suburban residential neighborhood with smaller HDB houses than the surrounding districts. The spectacular vistas and water activities along the shore get enjoyed by Sungei Serangoon and Sungei Punggol residents.
