There is a lonely japanese tomb at kepple Hill which belong to Komoto Ekasa (小本江笠) a civilian naval engineer who had worked for the Mitsubishi Heavy Industries. Komoto Ekasa was said to be sent to Singapore in March 1942 (17th year of Shōwa period), shortly after the fall of Singapore. He was graduated from the Tokyo Imperial University (present-day University of Tokyo) and had studied ship building. Four months after arriving at Singapore, Komoto Ekasa died, at an age of 47, due to overwork .Acknowledging his diligence and tireless efforts in working days and nights, the Imperial Japanese Navy commissioned the building of his tomb in December 1943 at the top of Mount Faber, with his tombstone facing southwards to the Keppel Harbour. A platform with steps was also constructed using red bricks supplied by the Alexandra Brickworks. There are several unknowns to this deserted tombstone at Mount Faber. First, why would the Imperial Japanese Navy commission a tombstone specially for Komoto Ekasa and not for other Japanese civilians who died in Singapore? Second, why was Komoto Ekasa not buried at the Japanese Cemetery at Yio Chu Kang Road?
When I visited, I spent a long time just reading all the inscriptions and signs around, and seeing all the history there. The Japanese were here in Singapore even before WWII, and they are part of our history. This cemetery is a unique place. It was quite a moving experience. Maybe you might like to visit Kranji War Memorial too, some time.
Just a little fun fact, one of the highest ranking Imperial Japanese Army Soldier to ever be buried in the Japanese Cemetery park is Field-Marshal Hisaichi Terauchi. His tombstone is located at the very back in-front of the blue wall at 6:58.
One of the grave was that of a famous author of Japan Futabatei Shimei. Futabatei Shimei (二葉亭 四迷) he passed away on a ship near Singapore during his trip from India to Japan and was buried in this cemetery.
Thanks for showing us this part of SG. Kinda enlightening to realize how wise the previous generation of sg and jp to build and maintain this as part of a reminder for later generations.

Hello, my old house was next to this park. There are no bodies there all have been exhumed. There are snakes there at times in the park due to the lush greenery. Not much locals actually went in there for a walk cause it was a cemetery after all. I usually love to run around the playground next to the park . If you are lucky you can pick rubber tree seeds and Angsana seeds around the area to keep. Is a quite neighborhood.
I love the relationship between Japan and Singapore even though we had a dark history. It's in the past and we should let go of it, learn from it and be friends from now on. I only wished that China and Korea are able to adopt the same mentality, no one is 100% right in a war. Thank you Ghib for the educational video!
@@jackjackyphantom8854 It will rely on those younger generations to forge better relationships. Many of the older generations that suffer during that period back then are still alive, and whatever experiences and stories they shared will somehow or rather be carried over to the next generation even if it's diluted. My grandmother escaped to HK during the war from Guangdong, she had to watch in fear her mother (my great grandmother) getting gang-raped and then tortured and murdered by the Japanese soldiers then. She survived by hiding with her siblings and all the young females had their head shaved to dress like boys. She does know the current generations have nothing to do with it, but it is the government that does not do as much as the Germans do to repent that frustrates her. She still has nightmares to this day sometimes when sleeping and cries. As one who has had not lived through that, it's easy to say forgive and forget. So until the perpetrators and the survivors all live out their lives and the horrific memories diluted, time is still needed to mend.
@@archdraong Japanese civilians suffered too. Just like what Ghib said, many Japanese women were brought to other countries to serve the soldiers! And right now Japanese AV is huge outside of Japan and especially many Chinese men love to associates Japanese women with sexuality...
There's a 1974 movie called サンダカン八番娼館 望郷 (Bōkyō - literally means 'gazing at homeland'). It was about Japanese women during WW2 in Borneo (East Malaysia) who died there and their tombstones were erected facing towards their homeland, Japan.
Was waiting for this video for a long time! Really neat that you made this video about the cemetery park. I was really surprised to know it exists in land scarce Singapore. You should also check out the Japanese Association in Singapore! They usually host events for the community. I regretted not going to their Natsu Matsuri before COVID-19 struck :(
My school was not far away from the cemetery, Parry secondary school in the 1967. The cemetery was on the left hand side of the road, at the Y junction, Parry avenue was on the right hand side, coming from yio chu kang Road.
Thank you for introducing this beautiful place and the history! Definitely going to find some time to visit. Ps you reading Chinese made me laugh (not at you but ya haha that was quite a comedic moment in this calming clip)
Me and my wife visited this place last week, too bad you missed out song kee fishball noodle just 15 mins away from this place. Btw, that is not durian, but jackfruit.
This video is interesting and an eye opener for me. I heard abt Japanese cemetery being in SG but never knew where it is located. Wow.... so it's at Kovan, sou desu ne....🤔🤔. During the 1970s, there were as many as abt 300-500k Japanese in SG coz govt sought help fm Japan to train our ppl in technical skills. There were many Japanese companies in SG back then. The information you provided abt those karayuki women, feel sad for them. The park is a beautiful final resting place for them. Hope the park stays (no area devmt fm govt). Me started to laugh when you sat under the treesy shade n flashed out a Chinese book, aiyoh you belly kawaii/ cute leh....🤣🤣. The cemetery is beautiful n quiet, nice ne 💘😍. Thanks for showing it to us 🙏🌻.
I read an amazing article hung up while in my family clinic (when little) Cheong clinic along Jalan Jurong Kechil. The shop houses are conserved because Dr Cheong had documentary proof of comfort women working in the shop houses. Probably the only place with documentary proof in SE Asia. Across the street is Bee Low See temple. Soldiers were chasing after victims who ran into the temple. The soldiers put down their weapons on entry into the temple. Lives were spared.
When i was in sec sch, i lived ard there. I will always cycle to cemetry to revise and prepare for any tests or exams... its really a peaceful place. However i cant say the same to e playgnd next to it, went there once late at nite and thats the last time i went again
Yea I lived there back then 2006ish, that playground at night its really creepy, for some reason those bright orange streetlights get absorbed by the trees shadows easily. That big sewage behind those those house it’s scary as well, local always told me to avoid taking the back road cuz it’s “dirty”.
I heard that these karayuki-sans are buried with their backs facing the Island of Japan. This is because they are too ashamed to face their motherland. I dunno if this is true. But this shows the Japanese has great pride in their nation.
That fruit is not durian .. its jackfruit or also known as nangka.. the seed when boiled can be eaten. It taste like chestnut.. while the ripe yellow flesh is sweet. It can be also eaten unripe or young they are used to cook a mild curry .. add abit of salted fish .. heavenly eaten with hot rice
To understand the history of Karayuki-san better, you should try to look for this documentary made in 1975 - "Karayuki-san, the making of a prostitute". In the documentary, a Japanese journalist traveled to Singapore and Malaysia to interview the last surviving Karayuki-san's back then. Most of them would not be alive today, and many of them could not return home due to discrimination from their own countrymen. Most of them worked at where Bugis Junction shopping mall is today (Malay Street), and local Chinese used to call it "日本街" or "Japan Street".
so much comment on the "durian" on a video about a cemetery 😂 04:53 i remember seeing Bidadari cemetery (Woodleigh area) with the huge gates and angel statue on the gate post around 1996... never got to set foot inside though, and now its a carpet of HDB blocks... you may want to explore Bukit Brown forest cemetery (now with Lornie Highway flying over it), and the remnants of Kopi Sua cemetery (sliced by the PIE near Whitley)... while they're still around
Btw, Durians don't typically hang so low, and have much sharper torn. That's Jackfruit a.k.a. "Manga" (not Japanese language). Question: is it compulsory for Japanese to "talk" to neko, whenever they see one? 🤪
I didn't know of a Japanese cemetery in Singapore and it's at a place that I used to go for my facial sessions. Now I'm the one feeling paiseh about being Singaporean and not knowing. Haha.
Those aren't Durians, most likely they are Jackfruits.
Confirm is Jackfruit!
Jackfruit... Not durian...

Hi guys 😊 have a nice day to those who see this message.
You too.
I was wondering when you would do a video about the Japanese Cemetery!
日本人墓地を取り上げて頂き有難うございます。大阪在住の50前のオッサンです。約40年程前父の仕事の関係でシンガポールに6年程滞在してまして、もうシンガポールも当時とは全く様変わりしてしまい、Ghibさんの様々な動画見ていますがもうあまりの変わりようで少し残念な感じと記憶も風化しておりましたが、ここ日本人墓地を見た時、すごく当時がフラッシュバックしました！他の方のコメントにも書いてますが当時通ってた日本人小学校から毎年掃除しに行っていて当時の記憶のままここは残っているんだなと嬉しい気持ちになりました。実家帰った時にでも、また当時の写真を引っ張り出して当時のシンガポールを懐かしもうかなと思います。有難うございました。
Wow I did not know this! Nice sharing!
からゆきさんの存在を初めて知りました。壮絶な時代の上に今があることを忘れてはいけないと改めて思えました。この公園を残してくれた日本人と動画を作ってくれたジブさんに感謝

Finally! Glad you got the chance to visit the Japanese cemetery park
I really amazed that this place kept for so long since after the world war 2
@Ghib Ojisan, I just went to this Japanese Cemetery Park on Sunday :) Very nice and beautiful place!
We watch your videos all the time. Can't believe u were so near our home!!
Really informative. Thanks
This is hidden inside in parry avenue (landed properties enclave). It is actually quite safe and it isnt scary at all.

日本人学校に通ってた時に行ったことを思い出しました。懐かしいです
That shelter looks like one in Shinjuku Gyoen featured in Shinkai Makoto's Garden of Words. Good layout for strangers to have a conversation.
Oh shit you're right. And it's also rainy.
I used to stay in that neighbourhood. A very different cemetery. To me this is more like a park with a rich historical background.
My school was not far away from the cemetery, Parry secondary school in the 1967. The cemetery was on the left hand side of the road, at the Y junction, Parry avenue was on the right hand side, coming from yio chu kang Road.
wow. school closed long ago.. used to play in the fields and bbcourts as kids tho!
I remember too.
Thank you for introducing this beautiful place and the history! Definitely going to find some time to visit. Ps you reading Chinese made me laugh (not at you but ya haha that was quite a comedic moment in this calming clip)

がんばて Ghib-san. Also 加油！
Omg I was a worried for a sec cuz I thought he said “他有吃猫。”

It's jackfruits . Jackfruit has a subtle sweet and fruity flavor. It's not pungent as durian.
Uh their are not durains they are jackfruits
There's a gensui hisaichi terauchi , former minister of war and commander of the southern expeditionary forces burried over here .
Have to visit this place when I go back to Singapore!

wow didnt even know this place existed in Kovan. nice....
These are not durian but jackfruit.

今年はコロナの影響でシンガポール自体に行けませんでしたが、僕の勤務校は修学旅行で必ず旅の最後にその日本人墓地に行き、読経してきます。仏教系の学校なので。僕もこれまでに4回行きました。そこに立っている墓地の地図がなかなかいいんですよね。管理人さんがいればその地図を印刷したものを買えます。
Penang also got a Japanese cemetery, beside the P. Ramlee museum.
Yes, don't waste time. But do take time off to relax, recharge, and be refreshed. Working smart is more productive than working hard all the time.
Grew up in that area. Been to it a few times.
Wow..definitely gonna be visiting here next time.
the pink flowers arent pink, the pink part is actually the leaves, the flower is the small white center
That is the cousin of the durian. Is jackfruit n is wrapped up to keep away from the bees which will affect the fruits
深夜特急シリーズやってほしいね
Hey Ghib, that's not a durian 🤣 It's a jackfruit and it also has a very pungent smell similar to durians.
definitely important to take breaks
I suggest placing Google map links to the destinations visited in your vlogs.
I’m a 35year old Singaporean and I didn’t even know such a place existed !
Otto was right to say Singapore was boring during his time. The country hasn't changed since his death.
とげとげの果実、ジャックフルーツっぽい。
それはさておき。
国家としての歴史が浅いからシンガポールはつまらないという人もいますが、土地と人の歴史は建国の遥か昔からあり、その歴史の一部にはこのようなお話と史跡もあり、作られた観光地以外にも歴史を感じられる場所があるのが魅力ですね。
おっしゃるとおりです！
there is also an abandoned shinto shrine in macritchie
Hello Ghib san, is the novel midnight express available in English?
a bit surreal to see safe entry at a cemetery lol 7:35
To understand the history of Karayuki-san better, you should try to look for this documentary made in 1975 - "Karayuki-san, the making of a prostitute". In the documentary, a Japanese journalist traveled to Singapore and Malaysia to interview the last surviving Karayuki-san's back then. Most of them would not be alive today, and many of them could not return home due to discrimination from their own countrymen.

This is the park where alot of youngsters go for ootd!
