Hackney Carriages & Jinrikishas

Hackney Carriage and Jinriksha Department of the Singapore Municipality The first rickshaws – small, lightweight, two-wheeled carts drawn by rickshaw pullers – were imported into Singapore from Shanghai in the early 1880s. By 1892, the Hackney Carriage Department had established a Jinrikisha Department to register, license and control the Singapore rickshaw population through the enactment of the Jinricksha Ordinance. The first registrar was William Edward Hooper  also known as W.E. Hooper (1858-1939)  who became the registrar for the next 31 years. Hooper Road (near Newton Circus) was named after him. By the 1900s, there were over 8,000 registered rickshaws manned by around 20,000 to 30,000 pullers working in shifts. After World War II, rickshaws were phased out and replaced by trishaws for short-distance transportation.

It was during Mr. W.E. Hooper time, that the clerks of the department was Wee Teck Leong and his brother Wee Teck Swee. 

Rickshaw's eventually were replaced with modern transportation
