- “1, 2, 3… Huat ah!” Repeat in tandem with your family wishing your ancestors prosperity. Behind the scenes at Bukit Brown Cemetery, caretakers have been tending to the graves before visitors arrive. Do you know the oldest male caretaker Mr Chua, has worked for 68 years? #sgmemory
Hats off to those who r taking care of Bukit brown. It's not an easy task but these pple are ready to sacrifice to preserve their culture. Mr Chua is especially so admirable.

to the 3 gentlemen, thank u for your service. our eyes rolled down to tears when we watched this video. all of us are born equal. we will definitely depart from this world, one day. no matter how rich or having high status, all those wealth will be left behind. lets be humble and take care of our aging parents..
The old gentleman warms my heart ..bless all of you
Salute to those men who takes care of 100 000 graves and visiting every unvisited grave
I wonder how is Mr. Chua doing at present. Blessings of health to him.
Btw, he mentioned seeing an apparition around 3:30-4:00 am which is well within the time-frame of the so-called demonic witching hour.

God bless Mr Chua and all you folks for
your dedication to after life 🙏
I really enjoyed the video. Thank you so much for making it. I've learnt so much from it . Kudos to those loyally taking care of the sacred place. Generation to generation.
Respect goes out to these caretakers. Be safe and live a happy life!
Went there for a early morning hike, peaceful with lush greenery. Blessings to those who look after the place.
What a motivational video for as a 17 year old :)
These human with a heart of gold.
I am a Teochewese from Hong Kong, despite I hv relatives from Singapore...however most of my ancestors still buried in Teochew...I reluctantly did the same thing like what the young man doing for tombstones which lasted for at least half of the century as a child during Ching Ming festivals. I feel emotional after watching this clip....I hope the whole cemetery will last forever like my great grandparents one in Teochew.
Mr. Chua is a good person, I hope others take after him.
I wana meet this uncle...respect him...
awesome stories, Much respect to the past and present caretakers
Respect!!!...👍👍👍

What is Sikh history of bukit brown?
Joginder Singh bodyguards
Bukit Brown is a Chinese cemetery. However, Sikhs used to symbolize guardians/protectors as they were well known Guards during the British colonial era. As such, many people choose to put statues of Sikh guards to guard their graves
Is it rude to do that in singapore
I’m 10, can I help?
Guys ppl hv left so do hanges do charity with the papermo ey u bjy n burn inthis case good kar a n u wont pollute. Money is nothi g to goodmind n happiness.
There's a mrt station at bukit brown
Chwee Lan Lim why would they put an mrt near a haunted place
+ Chwee Lab Lim Yes ! Bukit Brown will be on the Circle Line Between Caldecott & Botanic Gardens. It will cut through the cemetery.
@@fargo6762 Other than Bukit Brown, there is another one called Woodleigh is also another haunted place but it became a MRT station
lets be considerate to people who actually live there. Urban planning does not take into consideration the reputation of the place.
