The 70-foot gap blown in Johore Causeway below the Johore Administration Building

The view from the north coast of Singapore Island looking over Johore Strait in early February 1942. In the centre can be seen the 70 metre gap in the causeway blown by British engineers. In the background is the Johore administration building, from which General Tomoyuki Yamashita directed the Japanese invasion of Singapore. [AWM 012467]
