From working in pineapple and rubber plantations, to becoming quarry contractors, and later starting a fish farm and seafood restaurant, Mr. Chua will tell stories about his family's relationship with Ubin's diverse industries, and how they shaped daily life on the island.

*Please note that the tour is physically strenuous, and will require walking uphill on steep, uneven terrain.
