People of Singapore Part 6


This middle-aged lady was spending the afternoon with a paperback in the courtyard of the Raffles Arcade, which happens to be next to Raffles Hotel, one of Singapore's famed hotels. The reading culture among most Singaporeans is alive and well, which is quite different from Malaysians, who find it hard to go through 1 book a year (on average).
