our committees
KJCBA's work is carried out by four member-led committees. Each one takes on a different part of what it means to champion this precinct — pick where you'd like to help.
Government Relations
Represents members before government agencies and the town council — raising concerns on licensing, regulation and municipal issues, and tracking grants that affect local business.
Get Involved →Start Ups & Small Businesses
Champions new and independent businesses in the precinct — connecting founders with mentorship, grant information and peer networks to help them start strong.
Get Involved →Arts & Heritage
Safeguards the cultural identity of Katong & Joo Chiat — championing conservation of our shophouses and trades, and organising events that celebrate our Peranakan roots.
Get Involved →Sustainability
Helps member businesses reduce their environmental footprint — sharing practical guidance on waste reduction, energy efficiency and sustainable practices for heritage shopfronts.
