🌊 Friday with Friends is back!
Join us on Friday, September 11 at 7pm as Julian Candiah takes us on a fascinating visual voyage through one of the world’s most strategic waterways.
Using rare antique nautical sea charts and maps from his personal collection, Julian explores how the Straits of Malacca & Singapore became a maritime crossroads linking China, India, the Middle East and Europe.
Discover the region’s role in the long-distance exchange of goods, ideas and culture, from the Portuguese, Dutch and British colonial presence to the emergence of an early form of globalisation. 🗺️🌏
Don’t miss this fascinating journey through history!
