The search for Singapore's first public drinking fountain

We were having lunch at the Nova Cafe at the National Museum last Sunday when I remembered reading somewhere that Singapore's first public drinking fountain could be found on the grounds of the museum.  We have been to the museum many times but never encountered any old drinking fountain so I wasn't hopeful, but anyway no harm trying.  True enough, the fountain was not to be found... but we did eventually locate it and it is not anywhere near the National Museum.  Inspired by Heritage TV, I recorded our quest for the fountain on film.  So watch our little documentary if you want to find out where Singapore's first public drinking fountain is!
