Ah Hood Road, Singapore

Ah Hood Road, Singapore (11 July 2011)


Ah Hood Road is a minor road in Balestier, in Novena, Singapore. It connects Balestier Road on the western end to Jalan Rajah in the east. Today the road passes through a largely residential area.

Ah Hood Road was named after a 19th century Teochew businessman, Wee Ah Hood (1828-75), who operated a shop called Chop Hoon Hong at Telok Ayer Street.¹. He also owned gambier and pepper plantations, and the road might have been named for it passed through his property.

About this website

Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
