Lim Chu Kang

Lim Chu Kang is a planning area located in the northwestern part of Singapore.

Lim Chu Kang Village was founded by Neo Ao Tiew (Chinese:梁后宙; born 1884, died 1975), a Chinese immigrant who was the sheriff of the village. The village is on the banks of the Sungei Kranji and was controlled by the Lim clan. Neo Tiew also set up a primary school and health centre in the village. Neo Tiew Road is named after him. The area was originally noted for its numerous pepper and gambier plantations. Later there were rubber plantations, e.g. Namazie-Cashin rubber estates.
