Everyone and his dog has done this place, except for me. So it was time
to head across the causeway into Singapore and see what this old building
had to offer. Not much as it turned out, it's now just a gutted empty shell. But still,
it's a good surviving example of official colonial architecture, no show but all go.

Changi hospital was first commissioned in 1935 for the Far east Air force. Over
the years It was used as a hospital by various bodies and countries, including the
Japanese during WW2.
In 1997 the hospital was finally decommissioned when the Singapore govt moved
all operations to the newly built Changi General Hospital building. Since that day
the old Changi hospital site has been left abandoned.

Hopefully in the coming months I will be able to explore a few more locations
in Singapore. But knowing how harsh Singapore's laws are, I won't be pushing
my luck.
