As India has also said the club is now dwarfed by a high rise development - though at least it looks like somebody (presumably the developer) has decided to keep old club intact and in a very good state of repair. I suspect in some countries it would have been bulldozed flat by now. Must go and have a closer look next time I'm in "town".
I'll be there in October and will make sure when I leave Raffles I'll have a good look across the road instead of looking back at Raffles. Looking forward to India Four Two pics. I do have photos of the building but didn't recognise it. As I said, astonishing.
