Sengkang, Planning area in North-East Region, Singapore

Sengkang extends across 10.59 square kilometers, ranking as the second most densely populated district in the North-East Region with 249,370 residents.

The territory transformed from a traditional fishing village into an urban settlement through extensive Housing Development Board projects initiated in 1994.

The name derives from two linguistic origins: Chinese for prosperous harbor and Malay for wedge, reflecting the multicultural nature of the district.

The transportation network includes the North East MRT line, Sengkang LRT system, two bus interchanges, and multiple connecting roads to neighboring districts.

Sengkang Fire Station, established in 2001, stands as Singapore's largest fire station, maintaining advanced emergency response capabilities for the region.
