    Oh dear! The attap house you shot at 6:11 was my grandpa & grandma's house where they built themselves & lived there since before wartime. My grandpa was well-known on the island among the first old generation that time. My mum was born & grown up there. It also contained most of my childhood fond memories.But the house was sold many years ago. There are durian trees still growing in front & behind the house. They were there since my grandpa's time.We used to pick the dropped durians during early wee hours for own consumption & it was very fun.There used to be rambutan & mangosteen trees grown left & right on each side of the house but now they were gone. My grandpa even kept his own chicken coop(quite big) on left of the house & reared live chickens that time.We could get fresh eggs every morning from there. There is a well on the ground level. I went there last year. Amazingly, the well was the same old well existing there for many old decades, providing cool refreshing water. Every time, we had to climb up and down to the well to get fresh water.This video brought back my memories. It is interesting to know how you explore & feel about this beautiful island.

    During the Japanese occupation, my ancestors who lived on Pulau Ubin had good relationship with the Japanese officers. When they surrendered, they gave my great grandfather their samurais and land ownership letter as souvenirs. Sadly, after my grandfather passed away, our Kampong house was demolished by the Singaporean Government and most of our items were taken away. Sad that my family who were on the island for 8 generations, since 1884, have nothing left on the island.

    The kayaking experience was wonderful, if it didn't rain it would be a normal one. The UA-cam god is on your side to make it a freezing experience lol! Very well made video, lots of work done for this one, a lot of background work definitely to make it this smooth. Good job to you and your wife for filming all the footages.

Super happy to see this on a Sunday while going through my study materials for a course I am taking.

    GHIB - we have to make a trip to Pulau Ubin 's CHEK JAWA ( must book in advance ) and the Island rock called FROG ISLAND ( Pulau Seduku ) close to it. Perhaps my brother Henry and Jason ( from Day in the life of a retired Singaporean video ) can Windsurf from Constant Wind Changi to Pulau Ubin around half an hour to join us. My good old friend can show us some rare migratory birds.
    Chinese Egret feeding at Chek Jawa - Roger Boey. This video brings me tons of memories - as a secondary school kid, I was with the SCOUTS who stayed at THE UBIN OUTWARD BOUND SCHOOL

    Hi GHIB !!! CONGRATS to you and yr wife for such a wonderful video - so fortunate you can get permission from one of yr viewers to film the 100 yr old Village House with attap roofs, well water and solar lights. The farm visit was also superb - I have not seen this orange spiny GAC fruit for tenths of years !. ( GAC - Wikipedia ). Friend told me this fruit has poor shelf live. So lucky both of you were not " attacked "by WILD BOARS going after your lunch pack of Nasi Lemak or other snacks. I was in Pulau Ubin 6 months ago - missed the Chinese Villager who the Wild Boars listens to when he persuaded them to fall asleep.

    We were lucky to visit about ten years ago. We didn't have a map so didn't see all the interesting places and our bikes were not too good so hire from a good vendor. It was a wonderful day and cycling helped keep us cool. The farmer is so lucky and in my opinion, the richest Singaporean to be around such beauty and growing his produce.
