Kampong Bugis
Kampong Bugis (Malay: Kampung Bugis, Chinese: 甘榜武吉士; pinyin: Gān Bǎng Wǔ Jí Shì, Tamil: கம்போங் பூகிஸ்) is a subzone within the planning area of Kallang, Singapore, as defined by the Urban Redevelopment Authority (URA).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.The road itself derived its name from an expunged Buginese settlement that once sat on the mouth of the Kallang River.The Buginese people came from Sulawesi, in modern-day Indonesia, and exercised control over islands in the Riau Archipelago.
