Hello Sumtava Roy.

Welcome to Expat.com!

Concerning your documentary, you could post an advert in the Looking for section in the Singapore classifieds. It can help.

Thank you,
Aurélie

One of the oldest buildings in Singapore is the Armenian Church.
It is located right in the city centre, very central, and has a pleasant huge garden, which is open to the public.
The Armenian community of Singapore (around 50 people) has regular gatherings in the adjacent building, which is something like a cultural centre.
You should visit it to start your research of Armenians in Singapore!

Yes, the Armenian church in Singapore is a must-see.
Its history is invaluable.
