GEYLANG SERAI - Before Transformation.

Geylang Sipaku Geylang...An old folk song I used to sing when I was a child in primary and lower secondary levels in school.The song could easily be remembered as it reflects my 'Growing Up' years with my late parents and relatives.Sweet memories were uncountable when we came to this place, many times.

Geylang Serai is my historical, treasure site; A LIVING LEGEND where tourists should visit when they are in SINGAPORE. When you ask some Malaysian Senior Citizens or Bruneians, not to forget Indonesians,I believe those people who used to come to Geylang Serai do notice it's unique existence. What more can you say during the month of Ramadan, MUSLIM fasting month...the BAZAARs have lots of things to offer...you name it and search for it.Many 'Hari Raya' settings and decorations were done up. If you wish to see what's up at Geylang at night ,just visit this place to know more about the happenings.

When I got my second job as a Set Designer, I was introduced to my spouce who was a Geylang Serai Resident, once upon a time; an idle person who grew up in this area until he married me.
Last but not least..Who says that Geylang is not important...Without the old image, new image is not easily recognized.Cheers!
