What an amazingly well preserved video of Singapore circa 1938!


From the “Travel Film Archive”, a very interesting video about Singapore in 1938. It is remarkable to note that the video mentions that Singapore has about 500,000 people then (it is 4.5M in 2009) and how the population’s racial spread is.
