I went for an excursion at Old Ford Factory along Bukit Timah in the afternoon, and found out.. wait...

Do you know what's 'OLD FORD FACTORY'?

Does it give a ring?

Go to your history books, you'll definatly find it.

For three years of my life in Ngee Ann Poly I pass though there and everyday I think of what's this bread factory doing here?

Now..

It's actually where, the British surrenderred to the Japanese back then.

Now renovated, it is a good place where you pay a dollar to view a movie, about 45 minutes long, to know more about how the British failed and how the Smart Japanese invaded and why they invaded into Malaya, Malaysia back then.

The Old Ford factory was the second part of the tour in which before that I went to Bukit Chandu, where the last battle of Singapore was held with the Malay Regiments. And if you watched true courage you will know of the brave Lt. Adnan Saidi which he fought till his death.

It's never too late to learn about the history of Singapore. From there you'll learn about the mistakes made and learnt the enduarance of the people then, and do a small reflection. Look at how you are enjoying yourself online now and listening to music. I'm not trying to say that you must act pity or anything, but to learn to cherish the life you have and learnt to move on in times of toughness. That is the true spirit of manhood.

And please don't tell other people Old Ford factory is a bread factory.
