Chronicles of Old Singapore | The Islanders Adam & Fawzi – St. John's & Lazarus Part 2
Welcome to Chronicles of Old Singapore. Islanders Adam Giman and Fawzi Nasir recount their sadness at leaving St. John’s and Lazarus Islands in the 1970s and why they continue to return afterwards. Adam even got a job at PSA in order to be close to the sea. We also discuss conservation and the cultural heritage of the islands. Finally, I ask them about how they viewed Singapore from the vantage point of the islands.
