Jalan Kayu
Jalan Kayu is the name of a street situated within Sengkang in the North-Eastern region of Singapore. The street often serves as a gateway between the districts of Sengkang and Seletar, with Seletar Camp and Seletar Airport lying towards the Northern end of the street. The area South of Jalan Kayu has been renamed as Fernvale to form the Western part of Sengkang New Town. ==Etymology and history== Jalan Kayu was built in 1928 when the first Royal Air Force base outside the United Kingdom was established in Singapore, in the northern part of the island. ''Jalan Kayu'' means "wooden road" in Malay. One version for the road name's origin is that firewood used to be stacked on the roadside. Another version is that the muddy laterite roads leading to the rubber estates in the area were made passable due to logs of wood that used to cover the muddy roads, hence the term in Malay ''jalan kayu''.
