He was speaking at the official opening of Buangkok Community Club on July 28.
Senior Minister Lee Hsien Loong said that while CCs have changed tremendously over the years, their overriding social purpose has not changed.
The ward became part of the newly created Sengkang GRC in the 2020 General Election, which the Workers’ Party won with 52.13 per cent of the vote against a 47.87 per cent share for the PAP. Besides facilities such as badminton courts, culinary studios, dance studios, multi-purpose rooms and function halls, the CC also has a 210 sq m Lifestyle Centre – a flexible, multi-use space with sound-proofed work pods, study areas and a mini amphitheatre.
The 5,000 sq m CC is an integrated project co-located in Sengkang Grand Mall, which already has retail, food and beverage outlets, as well as Buangkok Hawker Centre.
