I'm English, and my name is Rebecca. Quick access for me: Batu Lintang camp.
I am researching the World War II Japanese-run camp for POWs and civilian internees at Batu Lintang, Kuching, Sarawak, Borneo. I would be delighted to hear from anybody who has any information about or interest in this camp - you can either leave a message on my talk page or email me by hitting the 'Email this user' link in the toolbox on the left of the screen.
I am an archaeologist, now mainly doing desk-based archaeological editing work, and have also written for The English Garden. I'm very proud that one of the gardens I designed made it in to the Yellow Book.
