They are just out of frame. But the memories of their work will remain in the minds and the hearts of many generations.
We tend to forget about the contributions of senior photographers, especially from the Information Department.
During the old days they had to fulfill work where other people dared not to go. Some of the pictures taken by them were distributed to the respective mainstream and commercial media organisations such as the Malay Mail, Utusan Melayu and the New Straits Times. Most often the pictures were credited to the Information Department without mentioning of the names of the original photographers.
Wong Swee Lin's works can still be retrieved from the Information Department library. All of his works are marked and coded with SL (Swee Lin).
