Sam has suggested that if he finds the right location, he might ultimately rehome his business because of his unwavering love for publications. Especially, one that allows him to boldly display his publications along a staircase.  ,
Education Minister and Tanjong Pagar GRC MP Chan Chun Sing claimed to have traveled to Sam over the weekend to look into “possible other spots” in the Holland Village neighborhood.  ,
Sam and prospective partners are still having debate. We hope for good news from them”, Mr Chan told CNA Lifestyle.
Nonetheless, Thambi’s closure should n’t be in vain. Obviously, Singaporeans grieve immediately anytime a history icon is uprooted. After the initial shock fades, we tend to practice denial, anger, bargaining, depression and acceptance quickly. By the next news period, we’ve sunk into departure, content for these images to become “preserved” as a S$ 15 button or S$ 50 pack bag.
However, Sam’s leadership, in particular, was responsible for Thambi’s closing, which was more effective than any other recent memory of a history icon. His unwavering love for journals was the wake-up visit we needed to take our lineage more seriously, perhaps if he paid the price, in a nation that is frequently criticized for its lack of character.
What do we gain when we lose our history? Since I learned that Thambi had close, I’ve been attempting to respond to this problem.  ,
Like many, I first felt disturbed, then I remembered we’d – certainly – lost history images before and we moved on. This was just another seemingly inevitable fate, another data, another majority of olden time Singapore that was bound to make method for industrialization. I was practically completely resigned, defensive and oblivious to Thambi’s death, then I spoke to Sam.  ,
And then I have my answer: At second, it would seem, we simply lose our history.  , But if we’re not watchful, our consciousness goes to.  ,
