whitewash
[edit]Let's be sure this page isn't being sanitized. This is the camp the James Clavell spent 3 years in. It is the camp he writes about in the novel King Rat. It is the camp that is referred to in Clavell's New York Times obituary as a camp where only one out of every 15 prisoners survived. It may take someone doing further research but this is just too much of a stark contrast to what is claimed on this wiki page.[1]Jackhammer111 (talk) 02:03, 17 January 2021 (UTC)
- @Jackhammer111: The specific section of which the period Clavell was sent to here at is Changi Prison#Conversion into a prisoner of war camp. I don't think it is just a stark contrast to what is claimed on this wiki page or sanitised, conversely, what is needed is an expansion of the section. This page has had a chronic lack of research and expansion done. I had done the expansion for the initial history, and anyone else is free to expand on the rest of the article. I am happy to circle back on this article, but only when I have the free time to potentially having to dig through archives at the national library. – robertsky (talk) 05:26, 17 January 2021 (UTC)
This page got vandalised.
[edit]The content of this page has been defaced from a prison to a slaughterhouse, alongside some bold irrelevant text. 116.14.54.22 (talk) 17:00, 11 April 2023 (UTC)
