... Will probably be a great trip - BUT !!!
If Singapore is anything to go by then be prepared to find that the areas you knew so well - and probably most other areas - have altered out of all recognition.

In 1951 - once out of the city much of Singapore mainland was almost Jungle like - Today Singapore is about 90 percent cement and housing coast to coast - Most former British bases and camps have nearly all dissapeared under high rise housing estates Nevertheless a great place to visit and enjoy - Wish you well.
