School-taught ‘Social Studies’ is a fairly sanitised affair. We learn about Britain, Lee Kuan Yew, and the paramount importance of free trade. We also learn about food and the origins of Chicken Rice. However, what comes out is just as important as what goes in, because Singapore’s history is also a fecal history—of dysentery, nightsoil, quacks and more. In short, it's a story of shit.
