In the British colonial city of Singapore, municipal authorities and Asian communities faced off over numerous issues. As the city expanded, various disputes concerning issues such as sanitation, housing and street names arose. This volume details these conflicts and how they shaped the city.
This book examines the nature of conflict between the colonial authorities, which wanted the city ordered, sanitized, and amenable to regulation, and the Asian communities who lived and worked in colonial Singapore and had their own values, priorities, and resources. The result was an environment that embodied and expressed the tensions and negotiations, conflicts, and compromises between the different groups.
