Long description:
A young Hakka arrives in Singapore, settles down, and finds small successes. The good life is short-lived when the Japanese invade Singapore and he loses everything. He eventually makes a comeback because of Indian goldsmiths and Peranakan families. This is the never-before-told story of a family of jewellers with a strong tradition of creating Peranakan jewellery.Who are our amazing pioneers, the people who travelled from distant lands to seek out adventure and fortune in early Singapore? In this series of fully-illustrated books, you'll discover our pioneers' inspiring stories, some of which have never been written out for children before! So, come and celebrate the people who have made a difference to Singapore, through their hard work, service and sacrifice.
