The Second World War was a time of increased contacts for ordinary Britons with peoples of different race, ethnicity and nationality. This thesis explores these novel interactions primarily through the eyes of the other ranks of the 18th Division, who set sail from Britain in the latter part of 1941 and arrived in Singapore shortly before it was overwhelmed by the Japanese Imperial Army, in February 1942. They subsequently endured three and a half years in captivity, the severity of which was such that a quarter of them never returned.

  • Sandakan City Tour Sandakan Memorial Park. Puu Jih Shih
    Sandakan City Tour This Daytrip Sandakan City tour package includes five (5) destinations: 1. Sandakan memorial Park. 2. Puu Jih Shih Buddhist Temple 3. St. Michael’s Church 4. Central Market 5. Agnes Keith Museum & English Tea House Sandakan memorial Park. It is dedicated to some 2700 Australian POW who died at the Sandakan POW camp and in the ensuing death marches through the jungles of Sabah. Puu Jih Shih Buddhist Temple The extravagant Chinese Buddhist temple perches four kilometres west of the centre of Sandakan. Not as ancient and incense soaked as some of the older temples in town, Puu Jih Shih is bright and shiny, relatively newly built in 1987. This landmark offers a breath taking view over Sandakan Bay. St. Michael’s Church Situated at Elton Hill, this beautiful granite church was built in 1893 and took 30 years to complete. Designed by New Zealander, Mr. B. W. Mountfort, the church was constructed with stones taken from Buli Sim Sim and the white stones that adorn the windows and doors were from Hong Kong. St. Michael’s and All Angels Church was one of Sabah’s few surviving pre- warstone building and was recognized as one of the world’s heritage since 2005. The beautiful stained glass windows in the church were donated by Australians to commemorate the 60th anniversary of the end of World War II. Central Market The Central Market is where the locals come to buy fresh produce, fruits, delicacies and crafts, sarongs and seashells. You may spot stalls selling shirts, shoes, bags & local handicraft such as crystal and pearl accessories on the second level of this building.
