The greatest significance of the 1911 Revolution for Singapore was its impact on our history and culture. It is for this reason that the Sun Yat Sen Nanyang Memorial Hall (also known as Dr Sun Yat Sen Villa or Wan Qing Yuan) should be preserved as a cultural shrine. The aim of Sun Yat Sen Nanyang Memorial Hall is to highlight relationship between Dr Sun and Singapore and Southeast Asia. Singapore was the headquarters of the revolutionary movement in Southeast Asia. It played a pivotal role in the 1911 Revolution that led to the massive alteration of China's destiny and the political scene of Asia. The success of this historical event was partly due to our involvement and contribution.

In view of the 100th anniversary of the 1911 Revolution and Sun Yat-sen's relations with the Nanyang communities, the Institute of Southeast Asian Studies and the Chinese Heritage Centre came together to host a two-day bilingual conference on the three-way relationships between Sun Yat-sen, Nanyang and the 1911 Revolution in October 2010 in Singapore. This volume is a collection of papers in English presented at the conference. While there are extensive research and voluminous publications on Sun Yat-sen and the 1911 Revolution, it was felt that less had been done on the Southeast Asian connections. Thus this volume tries to chip in some original and at times provocative analysis on not only Sun Yat-sen and the 1911 Revolution but also contributions from selected Southeast Asian countries.
