They just kept a watch on people . If they found somebody , any suspicious -looking people , they would sometimes stop them and ask for their identity . After going around and seeing things for ourselves we thought it's better , safer to stay at home .

Inference: This source tells me that the Singaporean teenagers were living in fear and threat .Teenagers would rather stay at home and it would be of low risk to get caught or to even be pull over by them to check his or her identification . And if they were out they had to be alert as Japanese soldiers could be found in each place , every direction.

Evidence:''The Japanese soldiers were everywhere , at every street corner... any suspicious -looking people , they would sometimes stop them and ask for their identity...safer to stay at home ."]]> 2017-02-17 00:36:43 UTC https://padlet.com/pandalenaa/HIProject_Tibor32/wish/154494549 pandalenaa https://padlet.com/pandalenaa/HIProject_Tibor32/wish/156185050 My mother got beaten up very badly because she didn't want to bow to the guard. The Japanese felt that you were bowing to the Emperor if you were bowing to the guard. So if you didn't bow , you were showing great disrespect towards the Emperor , who was also called Son of Heaven

So you see , it was safe even to watch a film show during the occupation , you watch in fear as anytime they could come.

Teenagers were living in pain , threat , fear and could not live in peace . Last time teenagers were malnourished and food deprived they looked like a skeleton and the Japenese did not care but on the other hand life now is different if you are suffering from lack of food or unfed the government would help you even how impecunious you are.Further more the Kempeitai  the Japanese military secret police , committed numerous atrocities towards the common people. They introduced the system of "Sook Ching", which means "purge through purification" in Chinese, to get rid of those deemed to be anti-Japanese. Now we only get rid of people who murder and kidnapp so the similar thing is that we still do death sentences.Another similarity  is that if the Japanese felt that you were bowing to the Emperor if you were bowing to the guard. So if you didn't bow , you were showing great disrespect towards the Emperor , who was also called Son of Heaven , so basically if you do that you get punished and hammered .Its the same now , as if you offence  the President you also get punished and caned.In a nutshell teenagers were so scared to be tortured that they rather stay at home all day.Teenagers just lived in discomfort and in strict guidelines they could not do anything wrong and always had to stay viligant unless you would want to be checked or tortured.After all teenagers lived a terrible life while Japanese showed no mercy.]]> 2017-02-28 15:12:39 UTC https://padlet.com/pandalenaa/HIProject_Tibor32/wish/156745061
