I remember the story my brother in law, who lived in Hougang with his parents and brothers for many years
After Hougang fell to WP
The PAPpies closed its offices and left the residents with no approach to the government
Soon, one by one the wet markets and old food market were closed down in the name of hygiene
No upgrading for years, even it’s the duty of HDB
YET EVERY ELECTION SINCE, THE CITIZENS OF HOUGANG VOTED IN THE WP
HAVE THEIR LIVES BEEN DESTROYED OR WORST OFF?
Wonder what it is like if Hougang were to secede and becomes a separate nation?
WAITING FOR 15% GST BY 2030 & MORE CECAS TO REPLACE LOCALS

Every citizens hv freedom of votes. Don't feel threatened just becos deprive of amenities. This happened to Chiam See Tong ward too. I stands up for Aljunued and Hougang citizens who hv the back bone to continue their support for WP. I detest those big bullies who stoop so low. When I was staying in Hougang, I voted for WP. In Queenstown, I wil do the same to support Oppositions.

You are rite. Hougang area is a hot area sought by many buyers. Due to proximity of direct north east mrt line that go to Chinatown within mins, it is very fast and convenient. Prices also not cheap. Even Jurong West, Yishun and Bt Panjang cannot beat Hougang in term of location.

Yea, NEL is the most convenient line..
Serangoon interchange, Little India, Orchard (Dhoby Ghuat), Clarke Quay (CBD), Chinatown / Outram Park, HaborFront / Sentosa all within 45 minutes short ride on this short line… very convenient line..

It is a newer estate compared to Pasir Ris which very far to central. Also very clean environment with many foods centres, coffee shops and malls.

In my entire life, I've never spent more than a combined total of 3 hours in Hougang. Of that time, I spent 2 hours playing soccer there during my secondary school days.
