Data Info |
Electricity was made available to the public for the first time in 1906. It was purchased from the Singapore Tramways Company, which had built a power station for its public transportation system. The power was distributed to consumers in the main town areas. The first use of the electrical lights was the illumination of the newly completed Victoria Memorial Hall. |
