}}Kampong Bugis ({{lang-ms|Kampung Bugis}}, {{zh|c=甘榜武吉士}}, {{lang-ta|கம்ப்பொங் பூகிஸ்}}) is a subzone within the planning area of Kallang, Singapore, as defined by the Urban Redevelopment Authority (URA). This subzone is bounded by Kallang Road and Sims Avenue in the north; the Kallang–Paya Lebar Expressway (KPE) and Sims Way in the east; Nicoll Highway in the south; and Crawford Street in the west.[1]

Kampong Bugis is probably best known for being the location of the former Kallang Gasworks, the conserved Kallang Airport complex, as well as the former Gay World Amusement Park. A plot of land bounded by Kallang Road, the Kallang River and Rochor River is slated for future residential development, part of a pilot programme to create a car-lite riverside community. Other notable places in Kampong Bugis include Kallang Riverside Park, Merdeka Bridge and Lorong 1 Geylang Bus Terminal.

Etymology

This subzone took its name from a similarly-named road located within its boundary. The road itself derived its name from an expunged Buginese settlement that once sat on the mouth of the Kallang River.

History

The Buginese people came from Sulawesi, in modern-day Indonesia, and exercised control over islands in the Riau Archipelago. In 1819, a Buginese leader had a conflict with the Dutch colonist and was subsequently executed. The Buginese people rebelled against the Dutch in the wake of the execution, but was met fiercely with Dutch military action. The group fled to Singapore, first settling temporarily near present-day Raffles Hotel, later moving to where Bugis Street is, before finally building a large settlement by the Kallang River in today's Kampong Bugis (literally "Bugis Village"). In the early 1950s, a major fire destroyed the Buginese village.[2][3]

Today, Bugis Street is a tourist attraction in Singapore, served by the nearby Bugis MRT station. A road named "Kampong Bugis" is located off Kallang Road in Kallang; the Kallang subzone of Kampong Bugis took its name after this road.
