Sembawang Village - Kampung Water Point 195251 viewsSembawang Village located just outside the Naval Base Main Gate sprung up and prospered due to the presence of the base. The land was originally a mixture of malarial swamp and rubber plantation. In time piped water arrived but like in a lot of Singapore kampungs only by stand pipe. Even in 1958 I witnessed locals getting their water as in this photo. Collecting it in 5 gallon rectangular metal tins that were previously used for the delivery of the kerosene used for lighting & cooking.
