Discovery Channel A History of Singapore

On Good Friday,I watch a DVD called "A History of Singapore." I also watched the movie with my mummy and daddy and my sister named Ariel.

And the movie also had three parts. The second part was about the Japanese fighting the Singaporean and killing everyone. While we were watching it, I asked my mother how was it that Lee Kwan Yew managed to escape from the Japanese? Also my mother's grandfather (Taikong) also managed to escape.

The Japanese also dropped bombs from the airplane onto Singapore. The Japanese might have wanted to conquer the Singaporean and therefore they dropped bombs.


In another DVD called the Raid, the Japanese caught the American and the other Americans have to try to save them. But along the way,they found Filippinos (where my girlfriend lived) and when the Americians found the Filippinos,some of them died.But my girlfriend was in Australia :)





I saw this man inside the DVD. His name is Standford Raffles. He was the founder of Singapore. He also planned the town of Singapore and today he is dead.

I was on the statue of Raffles because my mother was taking a picture of me.
In front of the Victoria Hall, there is a statue of Raffles but he is painted black. So there are two statues that I saw that day.

So there must be two statues of Raffles;one in Victoria Hall and one near the Singapore River.

Singapore is a trading port where people come to buy and sell and work to get money.

And it is 2 months before we will go to Penang with my grandmother.
