a bunch of coolies, whores, harlots, prostitutes, rickshaw pullers, opium addicts, drug peddlers, night soil collectors, stevedores, errand boys need to be reminded of their coolie heritage:smile:.

they've whitewashed their heritage, erased their history. a recap


Most of the local population, however, did not benefit commensurately from the increase in foreign economic activity. Many Singaporeans were employed as lowly paid rickshaw pullers:biggrin::biggrin::biggrin:, boatmen, fishermen or market gardeners. These coolies lived in shophouses, often in crammed and squalid conditions. A domestic economy sprang up within the community, with vendors and artisans offering a panoply of services ranging from street food to haircuts. Opium dens and prostitute houses proliferated.
