The South West Community Development Council (abbreviation: SW CDC) is one of five Community Development Councils (CDCs) set up across the Republic of Singapore to aid in local administration of governmental policies and schemes. They are funded in part by the government although they are free to engage in fund-raising activities. The South West District spans the south-western region of Singapore, covering a third of Singapore's land area. The District has about 220,000 households with about 730,000 residents. The District has a characteristically high concentration of industrial estates, including the Jurong Islands and Tuas area. It is made up of three Group Representation Constituencies (GRCs) and four Single Member Constituencies (SMCs). *Chua Chu Kang GRC + Hong Kah North SMC *Jurong GRC + Bukit Batok SMC + Yuhua SMC *West Coast GRC + Pioneer SMC The South West CDC District is largely coincident with the West Region, an urban planning unit as can be seen on the maps. In the remainder of Singapore, the districts and regions do not coincide. The South West Community Development Council (CDC) was formed on 24 November 2001, with the official appointment of Mrs Yu-Foo Yee Shoon as the Mayor of South West District. Mrs Yu-Foo was the first woman mayor. In conjunction with the swearing-in of the new Cabinet on 12 August 2004, Dr Amy Khor was appointed the Mayor of South West District. Dr Khor is also Senior Parliamentary Secretary for Environmental and Water Resources, and Member of Parliament for Hong Kah GRC. == Mayors == 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「South West Community Development Council」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
