Once home to over 5,000 residents in 1960s, Pulau Tekong was converted into a military training base in 1990s. Former residents of the island still treasure their memories of their time on Tekong, and have made efforts to document the history of the island, as well as the local customs and practices of the island’s residents.

In the second edition of the Memorial Hall’s public lecture series on Pulau Tekong, former Tekong resident, Mr. Ho Kim Hong and local author, Mr. Chen Poh Seng will share the stories of Pulau Tekong through the use of old photographs and more. Join this talk to learn more about preservation of the history, socio-cultural landmarks and local practices of the island.

Conducted in Mandarin. Seats are available on a first-come, first-served basis. No registration required.
