from Chronicles of Old Singapore · host Loh Kah Seng
Welcome to Chronicles of Old Singapore. In Part 2, Pamela Sandanasamy recalls her subsequent trips to the village of Anaikkadu in India, bringing her daughters along. She found the St. Francis Xavier’s High School which her grandfather had built for the village. But most of all, she wanted to find out about her grandfather’s parents. When she finally located their graves, she understood why he had been reluctant to talk about his past. Pamela talks about her future plans to travel to India and write a book about searching for her roots.Part 1 | https://youtu.be/4CEY-EMAUMo Part 2 | https://youtu.be/9wZQStgIX9Q00:00 Warm Welcome07:54 Differences from Singapore13:26 Bringing my Daughters21:06 My Grandfather’s Parents23:39 2019 Trip32:52 St. Francis Xavier’s High School34:59 2024 Trip38:53 The Graves45:41 The Answer I Sought51:37 Writing a BookWelcome to Chronicles of Old Singapore.
