1. Problems Faced During Fieldwork Activity (Group Reflection)

  We had problems finding out the origin for the products that are sold in the shops. We approached the shop assistant for help and we, as a group, searched different products for the origin so that we will be able to finish faster. However, most of the shops were closed and we had problems marking out the map with consecutive shops as we did not even know what was sold. For example, we had to guess what the products were sold at a certain shop based on it's name if it was closed. It was difficult as there were even some shops with absolutely no name or had the same name as another.

We had problems mapping out consecutive shops as some were closed. (But we took pictures of them anyway!)

  We also had problems piecing our findings together. As we were split into separate groups, not all of our findings were consistent and there were parts that we had left out in our recordings in the haste to finish the station. However, we already had information of Chinatown beforehand and filling in the blanks was not much of a problem. For example, we had problems doing the station based on the temples and religion as not much was explained to us during the trip. However, we had researched them and related them to whatever we had recorded about the station.
