Like Judith Johnson, Ingrid
Kivikoski would like to contact her amah Rukiah and her daughter, Senipah. Ingrid
wrote in her email:
“I lived in Singapore from 1958 to 1968. I
lived on 214 Dunearn Rd when it was flats owned by K.P.M/R.I.L (Dutch Shipping
Company) which then became Orchid Inn in the late 60's. I went to school at
"De Hollandse School" on Orange Grove Rd (which is now the Tennis
Pavillion of the Shangri La I believe) & frequented the Singapore Swimming
Club every weekend as well as The Dutch Club (which are both still there!!!).
I would dearly love to find our
amah, Rukiah or her daughter, Senipah - or their children. I only have their
first names though. I think they lived in a kampong near our flat but I don't know where exactly. Below are some photos of Rukiah.
Many thanks.
Ingrid Kivikoski (nee Schroder)"
