The Jong is a traditional wind-powered sailing boat once raced along the coasts of Riau, Johor, and Singapore. Cik Fawzi Nasir, who grew up on Pulau Sekijang Pelepah (Lazarus Island), has dedicated himself to reviving this craft and sharing its joyful legacy with younger generations. At 75, Mr. Adam Salleh is one of the few with first-hand memories of life on St. John’s Island. Born and raised there, his stories of fishing, climbing trees, and island life offer a rare window into a simple, self-sufficient way of life that’s all but disappeared today.

The Jong is a traditional miniature sailing boat—unmanned and handcrafted—once raced along the coastlines of Riau, Johor, and Singapore. These boats were inspired by the Kolek, a popular maritime craft used by coastal communities across the region. Lightweight, wind-powered, and beautifully crafted, the Jong reflects the deep connection between islanders and the sea, as well as their ingenuity and playfulness. One of the passionate custodians of this maritime heritage is Cik Fawzi Nasir, who grew up on Pulau Sekijang Pelepah (Lazarus Island). A lifelong Jong enthusiast, Cik Fawzi has dedicated himself to reviving this traditional sport and sharing it with younger generations. Through his work, he is not only preserving a craft but also rekindling a shared cultural memory of our islands’ past.
At 75 years old, Mr. Adam Salleh is one of the few remaining individuals with first-hand memories of life on St. John’s Island. Born and raised there, he spent his childhood exploring the island’s open fields, climbing trees, swimming along mangrove-lined shores, and catching fish and crabs for family meals. Mr. Adam lived on the island until the age of 22, when he and other residents were relocated to mainland Singapore in the 1970s. His story reflects a way of life that has largely disappeared—one shaped by simplicity, self-sufficiency, and a close-knit island community. Today, Mr. Adam stands as a rare and invaluable voice, preserving the lived experiences of a once-thriving island settlement. Through his memories, we glimpse a vital but often forgotten part of Singapore’s island heritage.
