Welcome to Chronicles of Old Singapore. Jean Ang remembers setting up a games stall at Duxton Road when she was young and moving out to a HDB flat at Lengkok Bahru. She talks about the different jobs she concurrently held in the hospitality industry, and why it is important for seniors to continue to ‘look up over the rainbow’.
