A Berita Singapura newsreel depicting life in developing Singapore in November 1962. People were gathered at newly-opened community and holiday centres in rural areas. (Then) Prime Minister Lee KuanYew and Minister for Finance Dr Goh Keng Swee were seen mingling with people. There were cultural performances, chess playing, table tennis and little boats going out to sea, amongst other glimpses of life during that period.

Berita Singapura newsreels were produced by Ministry of Culture, Broadcasting Division, in various languages and dialects on the economic and social developments of Singapore in the 1960s.
