Talk:Postal codes in Singapore

Postal districts table from URA, Singapore has issues.

1. The General location column's contents is not defined and is subject to misinterpratation.

Example. The location Marina does not refer to any place in Singapore's map. It can either be Marina Centre, Marina South, Marina East, but there is no such place formally titled "Marina".

2. Are the column contents district areas, subzones, street names, or building names? It appears that this is freeform.

Example. Hong Leong Garden is a shopping mall and a condo. This is ambiguous.

3. There are many "streets" in Singapore that are either postfixed as road, avenue, street, etc. By skipping the postfix and just inserting a generic streetname, it can't be determined if the data is referring to the road, avenue, or street that goes by the same name.

Example. There's Thomson Street and Thomson Road. Ambiguous.

It appears the data written in the General location column is informal and refers to the writer's own naming of the place itself. This information cannot be fully trusted. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.106.224.164 (talk) 09:05, 29 August 2018 (UTC)
