Bukit Jima: Nanyang Business

Inspired by Obojima - Welcome to Bukit Jima, a drifting island humming with the slow rhythm of kampung life. Wooden houses perched beside early concrete buildings, echoes of children playing block catching, and the crackle of a radio of a time that stood still.

Here, spirits linger not as threats, but as neighbors. Old shopkeepers who never closed or trishaw riders who still make their rounds

In the slow, sun-dappled lanes of Bukit Jima, a small kopitiam is about to open its doors—but she's missing its heart. The perfect cup of kopi isn’t just beans and water here; it’s memory, ritual, and a handful of very particular ingredients. Will you help this old ahma make her morning coffee?
