Yio Chu Kang Single Member Constituency
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Yio Chu Kang Single Member Constituency (杨厝港单选区) is a single member constituency in the north-eastern area, Singapore. The boundary surrounds the town centre of Ang Mo Kio New Town. However, Yio Chu Kang is not part of the constituency but in the Ang Mo Kio Group Representation Constituency. The constituency was carved out from the Ang Mo Kio GRC in the redrawn boundaries for the general election in 2006. The ward once existed until 1991 when it was merged into Ang Mo Kio GRC.
