@sheeming The reference to the World War is the First World War (1914-1919). The Cenotaph was completed in 1922. The "stately Municipal Building, one of Singapore's newest constructions", was completed in 1929.

This film was not shot in the 30s for sure. WWII and Japanese occupation was in early 40s. It's better for the uploader to edit the year of the film or it tarnishes the facts of such well-preserved video - smdragon Jan 14 2012 (Singapore)

@111i1011 The foreigners are the reason your country is where it is. Appreciate it.

I find it funny how they talk about Singapore's military and defence in this video, but Singapore was bulldozed by the Japanese in the 1940s.
