"When an elder dies, a library is burned down". So true...

I'm also amazed how these elders aged >90 are so healthy

Suratman Markasan is a national treasure. His Malay Language and literature are fascinating and mind blowing.

@mofasazka

Sounds like javanesse name,

@asyhzmy8815

His slangs sound like Indonesian

@shukorhadi8215

He is of Javanese descent like many Malays in SG, he mentioned in 02:32. He is a Malay literary giant in the region.

It is an honour to be able to learn about the past of our elders, even if they’re from neighbouring countries! The opportunity to learn from the ones who lived during times when historical moments had unfolded is a luxury. Thank you for documenting their stories CNA Insider! These stories must be documented for the future, to teach about the atrocities of war and why some people still can’t forgive Japan and what their country has done to us.

Listening to the Indian lady speak fluent Cantonese is truly remarkable.

@Johnne009

Mixed with hokkien!

@iwinlee

she was Chindian, and raised by her Chinese mom after her Indian father died... not a surprise if she have more connection to chinese language and culture...

@keemarotichai

I agree, many of that generation were multi lingual very much unlike present generation, an indicator of how divided we are and unaware of each others culture.
