The signing of the treaty of Singapore on 6 February 1942 was a significant moment in Singapore's history as it marked the end of British rule and the start of Japanese occupation. The treaty was signed by Sir Shenton Thomas, the last British governor of Singapore, and Lieutenant-General Seishirō Itagaki, the Japanese commander in Singapore. Under the treaty, Singapore became a Japanese protectorate and all British troops and civilians were to be evacuated.

The Sri Maha Mariamman Temple is located at the junction of South Bridge and Neil Road in Singapore.
