    So heart-wrenching ๐Ÿ˜ข All these young boys , bright smiles on their faces . How many of these boys made it back home ? War is truly an evil act .

    Thanks for the upload. Thoroughly enjoyed it.
  • I did not know there was a tram running back then. I wish all these buildings can be preserved but they chose to tear them down! What a loss! There could have been a Old Singapore district now which will be absolutely charming.

    It's interesting to see what Singapore looked like back then. The tram is what surprised me.
  • Its funny how some people say that singpapore was third world country prior to the 1950s....thats just not true...this video is proof of that

  • Thanks for sharing. Singapore was a third-world country. Thanks to Australia and the British young troop do help to fight with Japanese during the WW2.

    President Ishak was indeed a tall and goodlooking guy. With his kind and innocent looks, what was he like?

    Good idea historical new generation dosnt now about life
  • My parents worked there in 1959 at Raffles Hotel in a show. and we lived in that hotel I still remember it well I was 11 years old. There were a lot of poor people and it wasn't very clean Lots of people from India. Very hard life if you were poor. The British colonized Singapore with their arrogance. They lived in luxury. The best sweet and sour shrimp I ate in my life.was at a restaurant near the boat docks. Those were the good old days there if you had a good means of work.

    Does not look like a fishing village that was often advocated in fictional literature.
  • @khaichern
    But... Singapore was a sleepy undeveloped fishing village they say...
