Association Introduction
Nanyang Pho Leng Hui Kuan was founded in 1940. Its origins trace back to 1938, when pioneers such as Zhang Boxian, Li Zibai, Chen Rongqing, Chen Ziheng, Yang Yuanqu, Fang Zisong, Su Chengxing, and Du Shiwen initiated efforts to unite fellow Puning natives in Singapore and provide mutual support. After two years of preparation, a temporary clubhouse was set up in a rented premises along Rochor Road, marking the official establishment of the Association.
Mission: To foster friendship, strengthen unity, promote welfare, serve the community, and remain loyal to the nation.
In 2017, the Association moved to its current home—Pho Leng Building at 26 Lorong 27A Geylang. This nine-storey building is the Association’s fifth premises and represents a new chapter of growth and development.
Today, the Association has nearly 600 members spanning three generations of Puning natives. Over the years, it has actively promoted Teochew culture by offering classes in Teochew opera, music, and calligraphy. Through these cultural efforts, the Association enriches the lives of its members, nurtures community bonds, and serves as a cultural anchor and spiritual home for the Puning community in Singapore.
