  1. 1. Coolie & merchants.
    2. The coolies built houses and merchants trade things with the others and since singapore was then a free port so a lot other merchants from other countries came to singapore to trade and stayed here.
    3. Provided water for the living nearby.
    4. It is part of Singapore's history and it was also the lading site of Sir Stamford Raffles, if it wasn't for Sir Stamford Raffles there won't be Singapore today.
