About Punggol

It is a relatively young region with a lot of exciting projects targeted at there. Spanning an area size of 9.57 km2 (3.69 sq mi) and a residential population of 161,570, Punggol is currently set to be envisoned in the future as “the next generation smart & Integrated District”.

As to the definition of Punggol, there are multiple explanations on how the name Punggol is derived. In Malay, it means “hurling sticks at the branches of fruit trees to bring the fruits down to the ground” . An alternative interpretation would be “a place where fruits and forest produce are offered for wholesale”, implying that Punggol was a rural, agricultural area. The third explanation involves Wak Sumang, the man who started the Punggol village. According to his great grandson,while Wak Sumang was clearing his garden, a large tree was burnt and its branch, known as punggur in Malay, fell on his hut. He then decided to name the village “Punggur”.

In 1996, URA’s announced the Punggol 21 plan, with the vision of developing Punggol as ‘A Waterfront Town of the 21st Century’. Subsequently, in 2010, Punggol is also selected to be developed as Singapore’s first Eco-Town, with notable sustainable green initiatives such as Punggol Waterway and Treelodge@Punggol.

Future plans for Punggol as outlined in the Draft Masterplan 2019 includes the construction of the Punggol Digital District(PDD), which would integrate the key growth industries of the digital economy like cybersecurity and digital technology with an inclusive and green lifestyle destination for the surrounding community.]
