Today I went to Donggonggon. I saw a familiar huge building! I think this construction will finish by this year!
I feel very happy and comfort! This building let me recalled back 5 years ago… I was involved this project since 2004. I had been take part with An United Engineers Company (Singapore) to create the concept and the name of the building. In the process we had a lot of creative idea…

Burning the Gum Leaves

In 1942, when troops of the Australian Division were garrisoned in Malaya, families often included gum leaves in parcels sent to their loved ones.  The men tossed the leave onto the fire at night, the distinctive smell of the burning eucalyptus reminding them of home.

Gum leaves have been burnt by relatives of prisoners of wars who died in Borneo at services held in Sabah and Australia since 1996. Today the leaf burning will be conducted by two Australian POW relatives and two members of the local community, as a act of remembrance for the men who died at the Last Camp, and to remind us also of the great friendship which exists between Australians and the people of Sabah, many of whom risked their lives to help our prisoner of war.
