Three months since she came into our lives!


We now have a little lovable rascal to take along on our bus and train rides 🚌🚈



 

On Wednesday 6 March, I had the pleasure and honour of giving a presentation on the transport and urban history of Chinatown and Tanjong Pagar, to docents and trainee docents for the URA-Friends of the Museum Chinatown Heritage Trails.


The presentation was titled A Brief History of Movement in Chinatown and Tanjong Pagar, 1819-1941. Content was taken from my book, Jalan Singapura: 700 Years of Movement in Singapore.


Of course I royally overran my time, but there was so much to share. Everyone was so kind and attentive. Really enjoyed the session.


Thank you FOM for having me!
