What's This About

Mention Ubin and the rustic village of the days gone by when life was simpler come to mind. They say a trip to Ubin is like a throwback to Singapore in the 1960s. Was it always that way or was Ubin more than just a quaint island where its inhabitants live life according to its unique charming beat?

As a kid I could only enjoy what I experienced. But writing this now has evoked memories, thoughts and appreciation for what I call my own heritage.

Situated in the northeastern coast of Singapore, this offshore island seems to be the last place in Singapore where it is hoped that modernity brings with it a sense of serenity and at the same time, thoughtful and rational preservation.

This site is dedicated to the people that once lived here and those who choose to make Ubin a place to stay, a home, still.
