Singapore Japanese Soldier



Meet Ogawa Ryuju (小川竜树), a 20 years old teenager whose otoosan is Japanese and okaasan is Singaporean. Together with his mother, he migrated to Singapore at a young age and was educated in a local school.

As with all Singapore Permanent Residents, Ryuju need to serve 2 years of National Service. So far, one common question he received a lot from his camp mates is whether he has a kawaii moe-some sister. For those expecting a yes, sorry to disappoint, Ryuju is the only son. ^^

The above is a summary of an article I read in the local Chinese newspaper. Those interested to find out more, the full story (in Chinese) can be found here. Click here to read more of this entry
