History of potong pasir


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.
