The occupation of Singapore by the Japanese was like a long nightmare that lasted for three and a half years, the people suffered and lived in constant fear of the Japanese - the price that a country has to pay when it is occupied by another country.Many people experienced hunger during the Occupation because there was a shortage of food. Essential foodstuffs like rice, salt and sugar were controlled. Ration cards which limited the amount of food for each person were given out.
