李蕙心：新加坡華人夫婦情系古跡30載義務當景點導覽員

據新加坡《聯合早報》報道，“女舞者”見證了他們的相識、相戀到結婚，新加坡華人夫婦江昇樺和陳月華一生中最美好的時光都發生在這裏——中峇魯。由於對老家有濃得化不開的感情，當他們聽說國家文物局要在中峇魯設“歷史走道”，就決定報名當誌願導覽員，帶領公眾和遊客參觀，與他們分享這裏的歷史故事和回憶。

中峇魯歷史走道(Tiong Bahru Heritage Trail)14日正式揭幕，這是文物局的第11個歷史走道，卻是當局第一次安排定期導覽活動，帶領公眾沿著各個景點，了解區內過去100多年的變化。

從150多年前的墳場，漸漸發展成充滿活力的住宅區，中峇魯有許多的“新加坡第一”，包括有第一個組屋防空壕、第一個組屋區和第一座聯絡所。文物局把這些“第一”都列入歷史走道內。其他景點還有開埠先賢陳篤生的墳墓、以本地美食著稱的中峇魯巴剎與熟食中心，以及在1970年揭幕的“女舞者”塑像。

文物局表示，中峇魯居民在協助當局策劃路線時，主動提出辦導覽活動。

住在中峇魯30多年的江昇樺(60歲，行銷與市場經理)和陳月華(57歲，人事部職員)同另外20多位居民，響應文物局和中峇魯聯絡所的號召，擔任導覽員。

陳月華受訪時說，她在聯絡所認識她丈夫，兩人結婚時曾在區內的“女舞者”塑像前拍照，平常最喜歡到中峇魯巴剎與熟食中心用餐。（收藏自2013年04月15日《中國新聞網》）

S1E1: Here They Come

Singapore 1965. Food was prepared, sold and enjoyed on the streets. Itinerant, illegal hawkers moved around with wooden pushcarts, while temporary stalls were setup along alleys and five-foot ways. But all that was about to change. Post-independent Singapore introduced new laws and much importance was given to food hygiene. The streets needed cleaning up and the illegal hawkers had to go.

In Season 2 of A Frame In Time, we continue to tell stories of Singapore’s past, pausing at poignant moments in the 1970s and 80s.

Film auteur, Kelvin Tong helms the series again, interweaving fiction and non-fiction for a unique approach to documentary story-telling.

In Ong Kim Seng’s ‘Night Calligrapher’, we see a man seated and presumably at work in a long alleyway. The narrative spurs an exploration into the past world of letter-writing.

Widely regarded as one of Singapore’s most important artists, Liu Kang’s painting of a ‘Young Girl with Discus’ is infused with a playful energy. This portraiture initiates our conversation about women in sports, featuring Patricia Chan, Glory Barnabas, K Jayamani, among other sporting icons.

The last episode features a mixed media abstract collage, ‘Hunting Elephants in the Batik Forest’ by artist Tumadi B. Patri. We trace the origins of wayang kulit puppetry in Singapore and explore its eventual demise to the likes of radio, cinema, and television. (12 Apr 2020 Source: https://www.channelnewsasia.com)
