Title (Chinese)
叻报
Lat Pau, the longest running Chinese daily during pre-War
Singapore, was started by Mr See Ewe Lay in December 1881
and lasted 52 years before it finally ceased in March 1932.
Lat Pau is an invaluable historical source for research into
pre-war Singapore as well as Chinese overseas during that
period. Unfortunately the earliest issues of the newspaper
were lost and now the issues extant at the system cover only
the period August 19 1887 to March 31 1932.
