The Dead center of town

We have loved visiting the graveyards of the world... they are unique and often tell much about the living in ways the living can't. In Singapore they give you 15 years in the ground with a normal size grave before they exhume you and move you into a smaller burial patch as there is a shortage of burial land in the republic. The bodies that are not cremated buried are compacted and moved into building like this which looks not unlike the apartments that most Singaporians live in while they are alive. So there are more than a few jokes about living and dying and condos in Singapore. We got to spend time at the grave of Shirin Fozdar whose life story I had just read so was a delightful to track down her grave to connect to her and her life.
