サマリー
あらすじ・解説
Singapore is a small island, surrounded by other smaller islands. But did you know, we use to have an island within Singapore? It lay unassumingly along the Singapore River, and the roads surrounding it have diverted a bit but are largely still there. It might also be the origins of Bak Kut Teh!
