The photographs here show the contemporary sites of various historical electronics factories and factory zones. In some cases the factories have been taken over by other electronics or non-electronics companies.

Kallang River and Whampoa River area (Kallang Basin) 

From 1965, the Kallang Basin area (near the confluence of the Kallang River and the Whampoa rivers) was drained and in-filled with earth from nearby Toa Payoh to make create an industrial zone where many electronics factories were located.
