Surviving Syonan

This gallery shines the spotlight on how the people of Singapore coped with daily life and responded with grit and tenacity to the Japanese Occupation. It celebrates their resilience, resourcefulness and self-reliance – values that still underpin the core of Singapore’s society today. Snapshots of these memories are presented in an immersive setting of crumbling walls, evocative of the uncertain and shattered world our war survivors endured.

Nevertheless, amid the desperation, hope remained. As you walk through the backroom of the gallery, you will find stories and artefacts that bear testament to courage, hope and love in a period marked by fear, hardship and oppression.

Venue: National Museum of Singapore, Level 2, 93 Stamford Road, Singapore 178897

When: 1 Jan 2017 - 31 Dec 2023, 10am - 7pm

By: National Museum of Singapore
