[CHE FATIMA] [HOW HAS A GRAVE IN SINGAPORE, ORIGINALLY SEVEN FEET LONG, GROWN TO ITS PRESENT LENGTH OF 40 FEET? THAT IS THE RIDDLE POSED BY THE UNIQUE "KRAMAT PANJANG EMPAT-PULOH KAKI" IN RINGWOOD ROAD, KATONG. IT IS REPUTED TO BE GROWING STILL. AN ARAB NAMED SYED HUSSEIN WAS BURIED THERE A CENTURY AGO. NOTHING ELSE IS APPARENTLY KNOWN ABOUT THIS MAN. ONLY THAT HIS GRAVE HAS STEADILY GROWN IN LENGTH THROUGH THE YEARS.] CHE FATIMA, THE OLD MALAY WOMAN WHO NOW TENDS THE KRAMAT, IS SEEN BESIDE THE TOMB THAT HER HUSBAND TENDED FOR OVER FORTY YEARS.
