I was trying to recall very hard if I had taken that lift at the old MPH building, and I don't remember having done so. It looks like I have missed out on something special.<br /><br />I had usually used the escalator to go to the second and third level. <br /><br />Like yourself, if I were to be at the National Library that was previously located along Stamford Rd, MPH building would be the next other place to visit!oceanskies79https://www.blogger.com/profile/15637499843542653266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8801562.post-74115072185866392392009-07-29T10:38:30.410+08:002009-07-29T10:38:30.410+08:00My memories of the MPH building was the unique lif...My memories of the MPH building was the unique lift that my brother and I loved to use when we were there. Each time when my mom would bring us to the National Library I would always persuade her to visit MPH to get more books and the Matchbox cars. My is a senior staff with MPH and was stationed at the building, now each time we drove past the building we would never missed reminiscing the story of that building.Rashid Kassimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01118297649809850142noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8801562.post-1164371659227203182006-11-24T20:34:00.000+08:002006-11-24T20:34:00.000+08:00Hi Sonic.

MPH is one of the nicer bookstore to visit in those times. :)<BR/><BR/>I just can't recall buying books at Methodist Book Room. I think that is because I always get my textbooks from my school's bookstore.oceanskies79https://www.blogger.com/profile/15637499843542653266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8801562.post-1164330072626337132006-11-24T09:01:00.000+08:002006-11-24T09:01:00.000+08:00My memories of the old MPH was the tiny stairway t...My memories of the old MPH was the tiny stairway that would lead up to the kid's section.I was looked forward to climbing the tiny flight of wooden stairs to uncover a treasure trove of toys, stationery and SANRIO products.I looked forward to Saturdays when I had to swing by the old National Library. A visit there always meant that I could 'persuade'my mom (God bless her soul)to let me pop over to MPH before we went home.<BR/><BR/>The other thing I remember, related to your SPM post is buying my school textbooks at the old Methodist Book Room, which is now the SPM building!Sonicstarbursthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16511376757802854118noreply@blogger.com
