Yu-Mei • April 8, 2016One of my favourite long audio tracks is inside the Chettiar room, where a Chettiar descendant tells wonderful stories of his grandfather and father's work in the pre-war moneylending business.

Ayuni • April 6, 2012Take the time, even if not your thing to do. Wonderful, informative,peaceful, amazing... okay enough you read to go see it on your own..after all you're not paying me for full details.
