Deepavali or the ‘Festival of Lights’ as it is commonly known, falls on mid-November this year.

Did you know that Singapore was called "Syonanto" from 1942 to 1945? It was the name the Japanese gave Singapore when they conquered her. It was World War II, and the Japanese invaded many countries in Asia. The Japanese viewed Singapore as an important port as it would enable the Japanese to launch attacks elsewhere in South East Asia. During those years, Singaporeans lived in constant fear under the Japanese Occupation.
Learn more about it by downloading these postcards which feature facts about the Japanese Occupation. Colour them, then send to your friends and let them know about how strong our forefathers were to have survived during those years.
