When I was about 8 or 9 years old, my late dad used to bring me along to this place in Chinatown. I can still recall those years, the market was congested, dirty & smelly, but then who care about hygiene in those early Singapore years. Most people were poor then. Even Eu Tong Sen Street fronting the old market was filled with hawkers along the road pavements. Those days, the big drain running along Eu Tong Sen St/New Bridge Rd was not covered up like today. It was very polluted then !FLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03429286415685838183noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7826590137201441127.post-48216971324463220052010-10-10T22:12:31.067+08:002010-10-10T22:12:31.067+08:00chun see,
