While cleaning up an old cabinet, I came across a street map of the towns in Malaysia including Singapore. The copyright on the map indicates that it was printed in 1960 and published for Mobiloil.

Today, the same area look like this.
Email me if you want a better scan. Other towns include Georgetown, Ipoh and Singapore.

Singapore has become such a concrete jungle... U have to tilt ur head up (I mean really up!) just to see the sky... And the future (targeted) population is set at 6 million ppl!! Currently at 4 million I feel as though ppl are all running after me, past me, around me... We're literally on top of each other...
