Gift of Wu Sijing
Wu Sijing (the pen name of Ng Soo Lui) was a prolific female writer in the Chinese community. Born in Singapore in 1934, she has written extensively on her childhood and life in Chinatown. Her husband, Huang Da Li, was an amateur photographer and Si Jing often became the subject of his photographs. Da Li bought Si Jing a camera while they were dating, so they could be “photography buddies”.
