Pandan Reservoir

Pandan Reservoir (Simplified Chinese: 班丹蓄水池; Malay: Empangan Pandan) is a reservoir located in the West Region of Singapore. Formed by damming the mouth of Sungei Pandan, it is the largest service reservoir in Singapore providing non-potable water to the surrounding industrial areas and in particular, the Jurong Industrial Estate. It is currently managed and maintained by the Public Utilities Board of Singapore.[1]
