When I read stay I assumed that you meant growing up in a kampung and not going there for a holiday.

If you are talking about a kampung stay in Malaysia, yes I have the experience but not so in Singapore

MeOwSuSan SG

Singapore only Ubin have, you want can go the for visit !!!

I went there before is a nice friends place, you should go !!!

elindra SG

Been to Ubin to cycle a few times. Not that much of a kampung feel really. Anyway my question was to those who were staying in kampungs at kim keat and stuff in the past

Mospeada SG

hi...in kampung, u can run about freely...and your day will be filled with endless activities.... Mr. Green

MeOwSuSan SG

what you want to know ....

the feeling is no words can use .....

kops21 SG

I am not museum yet lah. Confused I am few of those folks that stay at kampung during their dying era in Singapore. Cool

Is kampung extinct in Singapore? I read in straits time last week about some families still stay in kampung within Singapore. Are they staying at museum?

elindra SG

Hmmm ok this makes more sense
When I was a kid I didn't even know kampungs exisited in Singapore Razz and lets not pull Ubin into the picture here

kops21 SG

Different era different environment. Watch a movie now, will be going for hokkien opera during yesterdays. Workout in the gym currently, will be going down to the field with changko to loosen the soil, plant the seeds and harvesting of the fruits/food.

FAT is a luxury for rich people then. Wink You can run around freely and everyone in the kampung are more closely knitted.

Alas time waits for no one... Evil or Very Mad

MeOwSuSan SG

sorry to tell you the only kampung is Singpaore are found only at ubin. I know how kampung is so I can said ubin have it .... you must cycle where all the house is not the another road for hiking ....

there you can still see kid run about and chinese opera is still on in season.

that is kampung life ....

Free move, can climb tree, got chinken running about, got small river to catch fish, swim at small river, etc.

Master -_- SG

There is still kampung life in Lorong Buangkok off Hougang Road

MeOwSuSan SG

MeOwSuSan SG

Master you there ???

KumSioJui SG

actually upto 87-88' there were still cinemas in singapore where you only paid 50cents to watch Hong Kong movies and smoke openly in there, never heard of rite Wink

I remember my secondary school days when gayworld in geylang wasn't demolished yet a group of us would go there after exams, we'd buy a pack of smokes go in and watch police story or hunted police station movie.

MeOwSuSan SG

I know that place there also another one at kim seng rd, now great world city.

KumSioJui SG

oh really was it better than the one at gayworld? I remember the one at gayworld only had old wooden seats and full of mites, I recall a terrible itch and always scratching my backside during the movie.
