“For Easter, I was allowed out. I went to a holiday bungalow where my now wife, those days girlfriend brought her friends. James was taken there by Richard Corridon. I tried to persuade Corridon that Chin Siong was the leader of the whole group. Without Chin Siong no decisions can be made so it is counter productive to keep Chin Siong in Changi prison and the others in the camp.
One or two months later, Chin Siong came and joined us and he wanted to stay with me.”
