The early 60's one

Great, thanks unclelau. It really brought back some memories of the past. Many have big family, with 5 to 7 or more siblings, running around in the kampong wearing slippers or nothings. I really cannot remember how we could passed our exam spending most time outside and guess what, we never ever attended outside school tuition.

And, things changed, everybody own their home, woman go to work, 4 or 5 Cs, employ maids, extra lessons and lots of tuition for the children, electronic games, etc etc.

But, it OK, for we are all blessed for what we are now, we survived and achieved in our time. And the younger generation will survive and achieve theirs.
