Fascinating snapshot of an era in urban planning as well as architecture and the story of the Thai working class diaspora, which may be the early source of migrant labour for construction in post-independence Singapore (my speculation)

    @cendawanita 😢 just walked by it this evening about three hours ago and took a photo. Sad to see it surrounded by construction wall and sad I never go to go inside, but have been enjoying projector theater in tower next door.
