Description
Welcome to Chronicles of Old Singapore. Anne Lim Siew Kim was the assistant project coordinator at Nazareth Centre in Bukit Ho Swee in the early 1980s, a generation after the great fire in 1961. She tried to help the at-risk children there, even as some of them tried to climb through the window and disrupt the class. She wrote about her experience in a book, Face to Face: The Street Children of Bukit Ho Swee, published in 1991.
