Welcome to Good Morning Yesterday

About Me
- Lam Chun See
- Singapore
- Hi, my name is Lam Chun See. I was born in 1952. This site is for Singaporeans and friends of Singapore of my generation to share stories of Singapore back in the kampong days when we were kids. I started this blog because I realised how much our country has changed in our life time, and it would be good if our kids can visit this site and learn a bit about our past. Please feel free to share your experiences. I am a management consultant by profession. I run my own consulting firm called Hoshin Consulting.
My new book
Good Morning Yesterday now available at bookshops like Times, Popular & Kinokuniya. Thank you for your support :)
Overseas friends can now purchase Good Morning Yesterday @ S$30 (S$18 + S$12 postage)

wasn't the original Bible House @where now Philitalic Museum?
rather surprising and adventurous architecture - impressive
The tree in front seemed to have flourished after the new building was up--a lot more leaves.
Was the building torn down or simply renovated?
Sorry I don't know becos I seldom come here. People working nearby - my friends as the NHB for example - will probably know.
