Singapore in 1960s

Interesting video introducing Singapore back in the 1960s, with British-accented narration. The policemen were still wearing shorts, samsui women can be seen working in construction sites, Haw Par Villa was still a star attraction… and best of all, there were no ERP and the road didn’t look half as congested as it is now. 🙁
