Singapore's Deadliest Riots

Singapore's deadliest riots saw over 500 dead, and some 300 homes destroyed. And yet, most Singaporeans have never even heard of it.

Singapore, 1854. What should have been a small dispute erupted into days of bloodshed, turning the streets into a war zone. Rival Hokkien and Teochew factions clashed in a deadly street battle, homes burned, and the British—overconfident and unprepared—lost control of their own colony.

But was this really just a gang war… or was something far more sinister happening behind the scenes?

In this explosive first episode of Singapore Confidential, hosts Marcus and Benjamin uncover the untold truth behind one of Singapore’s most violent and forgotten riots.
