"What we can't find is always the most beautiful."
For more than a decade, I have been obsessed with one personal mission – Finding Naoko. Armed with my trusted Leica rangefinder and mostly the standard 50mm lens, I have traversed the globe, going from one city to another in search of the elusive woman. Just exactly who is she? Do I even know how she looks like? Will I know it if I really meet her? Perhaps I don’t really want to succeed, for what we can’t find is always the most beautiful.

In 2030, Singapore will turn 65. At the same time, Singaporeans born in 1965, the same year ‘modern’ Singapore came into being, would be entering their ‘golden years’. These are their stories.
