Is this actually accurate?
Potong Pasir
* Name translates to "cut sand" in Malay, reflecting its past as a sand quarry in the 1940s.
* After the quarries were depleted, the area became an agricultural hub with Cantonese farmers cultivating watercress in the 1950s to 1970s.
* Faced frequent flooding until the 1950s when the government constructed a bridge to address the issue.
* Redeveloped into a public housing estate starting in the 1980s, with the first HDB flats completed in 1984.
