Punggol is located in Singapore Postal District 19.
The Punggol MRT Station was initially planned to remain unoperational when the North East Line was drawn in 1996. That was due to the foreseen low passenger ridership of the area. However, but the time the station was ready, the surrounding area has seen much housing development, particularly Punggol 21, and so the station was opened on 20 June 2003, along with 15 other stations of the North East Line.
Dear visitor, thank you so much for reading this page. My name is Timothy Tye and my hobby is to find out about places, write about them and share the information with you on this website. I have been writing this site since 5 January 2003. Originally (from 2003 until 2009, the site was called AsiaExplorers. I changed the name to Penang Travel Tips in 2009, even though I describe more than just Penang but everywhere I go (I often need to tell people that "Penang Travel Tips" is not just information about Penang, but information written in Penang), especially places in Malaysia and Singapore, and in all the years since 2003, I have described over 20,000 places.
While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware. Nevertheless, I hope that what I have described here will be useful to you.
