Inhaltsangabe

This book examines the nature of conflict between the colonial authorities, which wanted the city ordered, sanitized, and amenable to regulation, and the Asian communities who lived and worked in colonial Singapore and had their own values, priorities, and resources. The result was an
environment that embodied and expressed the tensions and negotiations, conflicts, and compromises between the different groups.
