Listen to seven excerpts of oral history interviews with the contemporaries, friends, and colleagues of the illustrious P. Ramlee, whom in 1948 moved to Singapore and began a highly successful, decades-long film career at Shaw's Malay Film Productions, a film studio at Jalan Ampas, Balestier. There, he would come to be known as a true renaissance man, accumulating acting, composing, directing, and writing credits - often within the same film.

This oral history collection was originally created for the Remembering the Golden Age of Malay Cinema: P. Ramlee curated page, an initiative by the National Archives of Singapore that celebrates P. Ramlee's profound impact on Singapore's artists, audiences, and film industry, past and present. The initiative comprises a curated page of archived audiovisual records documenting P. Ramlee's life and work, as well as a crowdsourcing call for records documenting the Golden Age of Malay Cinema.
