In conjunction with SHF2025’s theme on Intangible Cultural Heritage, join us on a special tour into the fascinating world of the Majies, also affectionately known as amahs, who helped raise generations of Singaporean families.
In this immersive guided tour, you will learn about the Majies’ unique cultural practices, explore sites where they held important rites, hear tales of their sisterhood bonds, and understand how their flavours continue to shape Singapore’s food heritage today.
