SFCCA has launched “Singapore Chinese: Then and Now” Virtual History Gallery. The rich history of the Chinese community is presented in seven galleries. These include the early lives of Chinese settlers, how they planted their roots, Chinese Festivals, and traditions: the development of the Chinese community, and the contributions of SFCCA and clan associations, and the Challenges ahead. SFCCA hopes to transcend geographical barriers and spur greater interest among the public, especially the youth, to learn about and from our past to understand the salience of championing the Chinese legacy for generations to come.
