Goodbye My Kampong! by Josephine Chia

  • A nostalgic memoir of life in Potong Pasir from 1966 to 1975, as Singapore underwent rapid change.

  • Through her teenage experiences and her neighbours’ stories, Chia captures the joys and struggles of kampong life.

  • Rich with Peranakan culture and gotong royong—the spirit of neighbours helping one another.

  • A heartfelt farewell to a disappearing way of life, exploring community, belonging and the cost of progress.
