Johor Bahru 1940


Johor Bahru would become very important to us as the stopping off point between Singapore and Pulau Sibu, our beautiful Malaysian Island. So many good times associated with JB. Who knows what the seas around Pulau Sibu would have looked like had you been able to dive there on 9 Novemember 1940, when somebody posted this stamp in JB.

 A great blog post about the history of JB, including a photo of Sultan Ibrahim who appears on this stamp.
