lorong buangkok - where the last kampong on mainland singapore is located

drove past kampong lorong buangkok but did not take any picture of the zinc roof houses. enter via gerald drive and ended up at the end of lorong buangkok where surya home is located. many vehicles, especially trucks and lorries, are parked alongside the road.

next to surya home is woody lodge, which used to house vagrants and the mentally infirmed. the place is fenced up which makes it look more like a former prison. i believe this was part of the old woodbridge mental hospital complex.

the houses in the kampong reminds me of my own kampong days in the sixties. the area is prone to flooding just my old kampong. seems like kampong people, especially the older folks, do not mind being left behind by contemporary developments.
