Singapore has launched a marketing campaign for the "Singapoliday", since they didn't like my suggestion of fakation. So, prepare for a series on our domestic tourism!
We have started by studying about some good and bad times in Singapore's past from the museums. Good times: buying jelly shooters from this guy! Super bad times: opium:
Good times, being the most fashionable coolie!
Super bad times, being a POW in WW2.
Good times, being carried off the boat in all of your pinafores in the heat?
Bad times - being at a polo match and finding the ghost of death there!
Good times, Lee Kuan Yew coming to build us a nation!
Then there was a brief marriage with Malaysia.
People were moved from their kampong houses.
Into modern apartments with plumbing and more. They often brought their chickens with them, of course.
There were some interesting social problems. Teenagers are messy.
At the time, the government was aiming for fewer births. Now, there are policies to encourage more!
In the giftshop, we learnt more about some modern bad times that can befall us!
