ST/LIFE/PAGE<LIF-006> C6 life happenings | THE STRAITS TIMES | FRIDAY, MAY 22, 2020 | Ong Sor Fern Senior Culture Correspondent recommends FREE BOOKS FROM ETHOS PHOTOS: Picks If you want a diverse sampler of Singapore writing, check out KIRSTEN TAN, home-grown publisher Ethos Books’ website. The veteran HEMAN CHONG, indie publisher has put up six free e-books, slender but Arts TALIESIN/ wide-ranging volumes featuring the works of eight writers. INSTAGRAM If you are in the mood for verse, try Some Say, A Tapir (left), which contains three poetry cycles by Alfian Sa’at, Christine Chia and Yong Shu Hoong. For two irreverent takes on the life of William Farquhar, Singapore’s overshadowed First Resident, check out Joshua Ip’s Farquhar (below, left), a snarkily contemporary free verse retelling of his life in various voices; and Colin Goh’s The Bonnie, Bonnie Banks Of Singapura (bottom, left), which the author self-deprecatingly describes as “satirical doggerel”. Goh was arguably the first writer to immortalise an alternative view of the Raffles-Farquhar myth in TalkingCock The Movie (2002), so his pop culture cred is legit. Neil Humphreys – whose comic Raffles takedown, Why Our Great Leader Was Not So Great And Not Much Of A Leader, is part of this e-book series – played Raffles in Goh’s movie.

It was a Ecelebration with many facets: the celebration of success, the reunion of old friends and the tribute paid to our school’s rich tradition. It also was, to me, time travel. The valedictory speech delivered by the former Student Council President Elizabeth Lee Sin Ye recalled how the journey of our seniors was both fun and gruelling, and it culminated in success – the best A-Level results ever in our College’s history. And when the graduands went up on stage and the fruits of their labour were publicly recognised, we were reminded of our Saints’ efforts and accomplishments during the past year. When the Guest-of-Honour, Mr Tan Ngiap Joo, reminisced about his days in the school, the audience was brought back to a different SAJC (the school had only just turned co-ed) set during a different time (the 1964 race riots).

  • MEDIA RELEASE for Immediate Release SPECIAL EXHIBITION on 1911 REVOLUTION LAUNCHED in COMMEMORATION of DR SUN YAT SEN's 150TH
    A Heritage Institution of MEDIA RELEASE For Immediate Release SPECIAL EXHIBITION ON 1911 REVOLUTION LAUNCHED IN COMMEMORATION OF DR SUN YAT SEN’S 150TH BIRTH ANNIVERSARY Exhibition explores significance of 1911 Revolution on China’s modern history and Singapore Singapore, 5 November 2016 – How was modern China born? When did Chinese men stop keeping pigtails? What role did Singapore play in this? Answers to these and more can be found at the Sun Yat Sen Nanyang Memorial Hall’s (SYSNMH) latest special exhibition, One Night in Wuchang: 1911 Revolution and Nanyang (天涯 共此时: 武昌首义与南洋回响). The exhibition was launched this evening by Deputy Prime Minister Teo Chee Hean, in conjunction with the opening of SYSNMH’s annual signature event Wan Qing CultureFest. 2 A joint collaboration with China’s Memorial of Wuchang Uprising of 1911 Revolution, to mark the 150th birth anniversary of Dr Sun Yat Sen, the exhibition chronicles the story of the Wuchang Uprising and the 1911 Revolution that overthrew the Qing Dynasty, which eventually led to the birth of modern day China. Visitors will also discover how the Revolution brought about new ideas such as national identity and citizenship, and the impact it had on existing Chinese traditions. They can also discover more on the Uprising’s far-reaching effects. In Singapore, it caused a pigtail-cutting craze to sweep the island, also triggering various fundraising campaigns and a surge of nationalist sentiments among the overseas Chinese. 3 Mr Alvin Ting, Senior Manager of SYSNMH, said: “The new exhibition sheds light on the Wuchang Uprising and 1911 Revolution, a turning point in China’s modern history, and is a good reminder of the linkages between Singapore and China.
