章氏家族史

三种文化与车宫村的故事

章庆裕在《章氏家族史: 三种文化的故事与车宫村的历史》记载其家族历史以及家族成员对早期新加坡社会的贡献。本书追究其家族史,涵盖的空间包括新加坡、中国以及泰国,时间的跨度超越半个世纪。全书分两部分。第一部分讲述三种文化的故事:首先是探讨章氏在汕头县澄海区漳林古港镇的祖籍和祖居的文化、其次追溯章氏家族在泰国的支系与文化,最后是探索章庆裕母亲的家族与文化。第二部分侧重新加坡章氏家族在车宫村的历史。车宫村章氏族人秉着其甘榜精神和基层社会使命感,彼此守望相助,为村民设立免费医务所、义务消防队。为促进邻里情谊与培养兴趣,村内族人进一步组织业余的潮剧团。1960年代新加坡社会动荡不安,章氏家族以草根视角见证印度尼西亚-马来西亚对抗、新加坡种族暴动等事件。无论是温馨的村民情感抑或建国初期种族矛盾造成的社会骚动,《章氏家族史》以笔墨留下车宫村民的集体记忆。

本会邀请您出席由文化、社区及青年部兼社会及家庭发展部高级政务次长蔡瑞隆先生主持的《章氏家族史》新书发布会。
