Ang Mo Kio, meaning ang moh's  bridge, the regular story that everyone wants to believe would be that a man named J.T. Thomson built the bridge across Kallang River.
However there is another, far more interesting story behind the name of Ang Mo Kio that i recently found out about was quite interesting.
Basically the story goes that in 1923, Lady Windsor's 3 children were playing in the woods when they were swept away by a river. Only 2 of the bodies were found. Locals then began to report that they heard cries of a little girl every night. Lady Windsor then began to stay by the bridge believing to keep her daughter company. Therefore people began calling the bridge she was on Ang Moh's Bridge. Very interesting story this is indeed.

I have always thought what a funny named road that is, with a little research i was able to find out that Kay Poh Road was named after a man named Wee Kay Poh, he owned a large opium and liquor farm. Very interesting if you ask me.

What a delight to have experienced an authentic heritage cuisine at Mamanda. The host of the restaurant told us that this 1840 mansion, the Gedung Kuning was once the home of Tengku Mahmud. Heard that the restaurant will close down in April 2019 though. Glad we were able to dine in this historic building. - Marian van Houston, Amstadam

It’s amazing how you pass by a place so often and fail to notice things right before your eyes! Zubir Said’s house at Joo Chiat!!...& I didn’t notice this till recently. I asked my daughter if she knows who Zubir said was. She said it’s the guy who named the road that leads to her school ‘Zubir Said Drive’! Time to bring her to MHC to witness the legacy of Zubir Said. - Estée Wong

My Uncle used to have a shop at Kampung Glam which sells songkok (head gears), money belts and other items that pilgrims will need when they make their way to Mecca. He told me that Haji Lane was the place that pilgrims would stop over to stay on their way to Mecca. He closed his shop many years ago but still speaks fondly of the days when Kampung Glam was so vibrant with cultural activities. - Anuar Adif, Singapore

I’ve always wondered how Kampung Glam got it’s name. I came across a signage placed at a tree just outside Malay Heritage Centre. Realised that ‘gelam’ Is actually a type of tree that grew in the area. - Ayu Manaf, Singapore.
