Social Developments
  1. Role of the People: Taking Intervention Measures
    1. Healthcare
      1. Gov doctors for rich Asians, Europeans and military doctors for soldiers - no medical services for general public - high death rate
        1. Diseases (e.g. Beri-beri, tuberculosis, malaria) spread because of inadequate medical supplies, dirty streets, overcrowded living spaces, & no sewage system
        2. Locals who helped improve healthcare - e.g. Tan Tock Seng --> founded Chinese Pauper Hospital in Pearl's Hill where immigrants could seek medical help at little or no cost; bury unclaimed bodies; paid funeral expenses
        3. Education
          1. British gvt did not see an urgent need to provide education for locals - left such matters in hands of private organisations
            1. 19th C: schools were mostly little-equipped and attended only by boys
              1. e.g.1: Indian merchant, Narayana Pillai - started small school for Indian children
                1. e.g.2: Christian missionaries opened 2 Cantonese schools, a Hokkien school and an English school
                  1. e.g.3: Chinese and Tamil schools; madrasah schools for Malay Muslim children
              2. Role of the Government: implementing and Formalising Nation-wide Measures
                1. Healthcare
                  1. 1887: set up Public Health Department - malaria committee to supervise infilling of mosquito-infested swamps, implementing sewage system, clearing dirty streets and drains
                    1. attempts to improve housing conditions (e.g. reduce overcrowding in Chinatown)
                      1. set up General Hospital, leper camp and lunatic asylum
                        1. 1882 onwards: outpatient clinics for public
                          1. Quarantine Law
                          2. Education
                            1. colonial gvt changed attitude towards education as gvt needed skilled individuals & ppl trained in English to fill the positions in offices and trading companies
                              1. shows that gvt was primarily motivated by commerce, business and trade
                                1. established Queen's scholarship for top secondary school students to further studies in British universities
                                  1. agreed to Asian leaders' request to set up medical school (King Edward VII College of Medicine) on the condition that locals raised funds
                                    1. built other institutions when pressure was put on gvt by merchants
                                      1. however, British did not treat all schools equally - English & Malay schools received more funding than Chinese schools (which they thought bred anti-British sentiments)
