Lim Chu Kang Cemetery may be the resting place of many of Singapore’s dearly departed. But for one family fallen on hard times, the jungle surrounding the cemetery has been their home for the past three years.
Tok Adi (not his real name), whom the non-governmental organisation (NGO) Project Hills identified as a 54-year-old Singaporean, has been working as a gravedigger for about four years but struggles to support his family of three as his employer has allegedly not been paying him fairly.
Without a home to call their own, Tok Adi, his wife and their eight-year-old son resorted to living in a makeshift shack in a jungle near the cemetery cobbled together from discarded plywood, signboards, tarp and metal sheets.
