File Arab Street.JPG thumb right 250px Arab Street at Kampong Glam , with shophouse s on both sides of the street. Arab Street Simplified Chinese character Chinese is the name of a road and list of neighbourhoods in Singapore neighbourhood in Singapore . There are two explanations behind the name. The first one is that the area was owned by an Arab merchant, Syed Ali bin Mohamed Al Junied and that it was the site of an Arab kampung kampong , hence the name Arab Street. The Han Chinese Chinese referred the street as jiau a koi Java nese street , in the view of the Javanese who used to be the majority inhabitants of the area. Spices, textiles, basketry items and Sonkoks are sold along this row of shophouses with five foot way at Arab Street. In Tamil language Tamil , Arab Street is known as pukadai sadkku flower shops street , because of shops selling homegrown flowers, lime fruit lime and other goods sold by Javanese women. In 1889, a huge fire occurred. The other explanation is tied to the preexisting situation at the time of the nation s founding by Sir Stamford Raffles . When Raffles was planning the outline of areas to be allocated for the Government of Singapore government , as opposed to Commercial property commercial and residential use, a community of Bugis people Bugis seamen and merchant s were already near the Istana Kampong Glam Sultan s palace . He therefore allocated the area to them, near where their boat s were sheltered in the river, bringing their annual cargo to a barter trade barter basis. That is how the name Bugis Street came about.
