Prof Leo Tan wrote a guest post at Lam Pin Foo’s self-titled blog.

He tells the familiar story – familiar to most Toddycats* at least – of the story of the museum, from an idea of Raffles (hence the name) to its rebirth at Kent Ridge.

But he has added on to this story with his experience with the museum and his reflections on the drive to create a full-fledged National History Museum.

I’m not sure who Lam Pin Foo is, but I’m thankful that he got Prof Tan to write that post.
