Station 1: Purpose of this activity is to show how fragile the maritime industry
initially was back in the 1940s.Yet, it was due to the creation and cooperation of
many organisations such as the Singapore Customs Police, that the Maritime
industry could develop and contributed to the establishment of the first Free
Trade Zones in 1966 to boost entrepot trade which was part of Singapores
export-orientated strategies. Thus each group member represents the key
members of the maritime industry back in the 1940s who contributed and
played a part in developing the maritime4 industry which is represented by the
cups.
Customs House
The Customs House was the Customs
headquarters from 1932 to 1989. Integral
to the safety of Singapores harbour,
Customs House was the home of the
harbour division of the Singapore
Customs Police in 1969. It was here that
the customs personnel kept a round-theclock vigil from the 23 metre-high control
tower, looking out for small boats
attempting to smuggle in dutiable
goods. Raids on the high seas, seizures of
narcotics consignments, and encounters
with pirates were all part of the colourful
story that once took place upon the waters
by the Customs House.

experience the mechanical difficulty as they have to balance the basket of balls with
their legs and ensure that no balls fall off as it is transported from one side to the
other, just like how the coolies had to transport fragile goods and ensure that they
do not spoil or break any of them.
