For the diseases, the medication was seized by the Japanese for their needs in Singapore and all the Japanese’s hospitality to the Malays has agreed the Chinese people. The Japanese has appointed the Malays as Police and Army force as they are used to resist giving the Chinese a consistent appearance.

This adds more anger to the Chinese which caused racial clashes with the Malays.

The Japanese Occupation changed the lives of teenagers then tremendously.

For change in school life, before the Japanese Occupation, the teenagers attented english schools, everything they learnt was in english, including the national anthem and the way they are expected to speak. While during the Japanese Occupation, they had to change and learn a different language, Japanese. Also, the Japanese changed the material used for teaching.

For change in leisure: before the Japanese Occupation, the teenagers style of recreational activities is to visit the gay world enjoying there. While during the Japanese Occupation, Gay world and the other worlds were turned into gambling dens, benefiting the Japanese, but leaving the teenagers with no place to enjoy.

For change in food, before the Japanese Occupation, the teenagers were given an adequate amount and variety of food. While during the Japanese Occupation, food was scarce, the prices of the food were increased tremendously. The Japanese controlled the food and distributed them unfairly, treating themselves as the priorities. People started planting their own crops, they ate lots of vegetables and had little meat and fish.

For change in relationships between the different races, before the Japanese Occupation, the teenagers were already distant among the races, as they were new to one another. While during the Japanese Occupation, they became more distant as the Japanese wanted the support of the Malays and Indians, thus treating them especially well. While, the Chinese and Eurasians had to receive harsh treatments as they were of no use.

Thus, I can infer that the Japanese Occupation changes the lives of the teenagers considerably.

Food was scarce as food was distributed unequally. Food was expensive and necessities such as rice sugar and salt were controlled by the Japanese. People turned to food which were more readily available around the island. They resorted to planting their own crops and ate lots of tapioca, sweet potato and eel as they had little meat and fish.

The Japanese occupation lead to a more distant relationship between local races. The military treated the Malays well but for Chinese and Indians, they were treated unfairly.

The Malay people were appointed as the Japanese secret police.

For the Chinese, anyone that is anti-japanese would be killed and tortured by them.

For the Indians, they were used as forced labor and send to the Thai-Burmese Board to work as construct. Food shortages and diseases caused many deaths, and hence the railway is known as the "Death Railway".

Description: During the war, what had happened to the worlds; the common changes made to the other two worlds and what were they turned into? What was the effect and result of this certain action taken and what were the benefits and reasons for the Japanese for taking this action.

Source D (Written):

"During the war, all the worlds turned into gambling dens or gambling farms. This is to encourage Chinese businessmen, such as the Shaw Brothers and other businessmen, to operate gambling dens at the amusement parks. As these dens were prevented from raids, the brightly-lit lights does a good job in attracting more people to become gamblers. The dens were often crowded with gamblers, gambling whole-heartedly. The popularity of the gambling dens amongst the people then had helped the Japanese members earned a weighty amount of cash from the income collected and accumulated from the gamblers as they applied tax and license fees for people who visits the gambling dens."
