The photo belong you can see the Chinese cemetery map from 1966 overlay above the existing map. The cemetery on the maps existed until 1970 before the 1971 map showed flats. But the tombs in cluster moved much earlier in 1935 as you can see. Cheang Hong Lim moved only on 1961 ( a difference of 26 years). Why was this so ? Was the cemetery developed in stages impacting the former residents gradually until finally affecting Cheang Hong Lim's private plot ?
