I appreciate your reaction to my video of Singapore in 1964, posted by Michael Rogge. I lived in Singapore for six months in 1950, when I worked for the Nationale Handelsbank there, which later was acquired by Chase Manhattan bank, the white building shown in the clip. I lived on the top floor of the building! Unfortunately I have no film footage of that period.
Thank you Mr. Rogge for sharing this video. It is an important historical document for Singaporeans as most of the scenes in the video no longer exist in reality.
wow,.. scene 01:51 could it be that the Kacang Puteh Man is at the entrance of the old Capitol Theatre ?? and 03:05 the ladies were looking across Sentosa on top of Mt Faber ? Thank you Mr Rogge for sharing your "treasures" , hopefully the Iphone & Android generation learn to appreciate.

Yes, the ending shot looks like a view of Sentosa (it wasn't called that then, though) form Mount Faber.
