Interesting facts

  • Kilang is the Malay word for factory or mill, so Jalan Kilang simply means factory road. Timor means east, which makes this street the eastern arm of the estate, with Jalan Kilang Barat (west) on the other side.

  • The lease start date of 1961 points to the age of the estate. Bukit Merah was one of the first places in Singapore to industrialise, with brickworks and mills around Redhill and Henderson Hill from the 1930s.

  • Under URA rules for B1 sites, at least 60 per cent of the floor space must be for industrial uses such as light manufacturing, printing, media production or e-business. Up to 40 per cent may be ancillary offices and similar supporting uses.

  • Bukit Merah means red hill in Malay. The name comes from the red lateritic soil of the area and is tied to a well-known legend in the Malay Annals.
