ABOUT

Poh Ann Keng (保安宫) was founded by a group of Peranakan Chinese in the early 20th century, and was officially registered in 1961. The Five Monkey God are the five different depictions of the Monkey King, carrying five different weapons.

Initially located in Peck Seah Street, but due to urban redevelopment Poh Ann Keng had moved several times and now settled at Tampines link. The saviour was businessman Mr. Tay Siong Suanh, who put in a lot of effort and forked out a substantial sum to purchase the land to build Poh Ann Keng and to also fulfil his father's dying wish. After years of preparation and construction, Poh Ann Keng was inaugurated in 2004.

​

However in February 2019, a fire broke out in the wee hours of the morning at Poh Ann Keng. The fire badly damaged the altar and several statuettes at Poh Ann Keng. Mr Tay stepped in once again after receiving calling from The Great Sage.

​

In February 2023, the temple's restoration work is near completion and the consecration ceremony of The Great Sage will take place on the 6th.

​

The temple welcome all devotees.
