‘Punggol Corridor Digital district’ in Punggol to create 28,000 tech jobs
When its first buildings are ready in five years, Punggol North could become something of a mini Silicon Valley in Singapore – a centre for digital and cyber-security industries that generates up to 28,000 digital economy jobs.
The masterplan for the 50ha Punggol Digital District was launched yesterday by Deputy Prime Minister Teo Chee Hean at Waterway Point mall, together with an exhibition on what the district would look like.
Speaking at the event, Mr Teo said the plan is to make Punggol “a hub for key growth sectors of the digital economy”, and that could even involve moving government agencies, such as the Cyber Security Agency of Singapore – currently in Maxwell Road – to the district.
The Punggol Neighbourhood (Punggol Corridor)

Future developments will focus on providing even more housing choices while bringing greater convenience to daily living and making waterfront leisure more accessible to the residents of Punggol, including:
• New waterfront housing districts spread across the town. This will start with the Matilda District, which will pay homage to the former plantations and historic Matilda House in the area, and the Northshore District which will feature an extensive network of second-storey walkways connecting residents outwards to the sea

More green spaces and recreation facilities will be developed in the coming years for residents to enjoy an active and healthy lifestyle. These include:
• A rustic park on Coney Island
• More green spaces that bring residents closer to the waterfront
• Sports Facilities and a SAFRA Clubhouse located within the Town Centre
