An Taoiseach mothúchánach faoi ghéibheannas a uncail i Singeapór.
Report by Tomás Ó Mainnín to be broadcast on TG4 at 7 The Taoiseach's 4-day official visit to Japan and Singapore has come to a close.
Tuairisc le Tomás Ó Mainnín le craoladh ar TG4 ag a 7 Tá clabhsúr curtha ar chuairt oifigiúil 4 lá a bhí ar bun ag an Taoiseach ar an tSeapáin agus ar Singeapór.
He spent part of the day in the Changi Museum in Singapore, a museum that examines the Japanese invasion of the country in the Second World War.
I Músaem Changi i Singeapór a chaith sé píosa den lá, músaem a chíorann ionradh na Seapáine ar an tír sa Dara Cogadh Domhanda.
Micheál Martin had a special reason for being there: It was a prison camp where prisoners of war were kept and in 1942 it was there that the Taoiseach's uncle, Philip Martin, who was captured while on duty with the Royal Engineers of the British Army, was sent there. the Japanese took possession of the island.
Bhí cúis ar leith ag Micheál Martin a bheith ann: Campa géibhinn a bhí ann inar coinníodh príosúnaithe cogaidh agus i 1942 is ann a cuireadh uncail leis an Taoiseach, Philip Martin, a gabhadh agus é ar dualgas le Innealtóirí Ríoga Arm na Breataine, nuair a fuair na Seapánaigh seilbh ar an oileán.
During the War he was thought to have died but in 1945 when the geese were freed Philip Martin was among the prisoners released.
Ceapadh le linn an Chogaidh go raibh sé tar éis bháis ach i 1945 nuair a fuasclaíodh na géibheannaigh bhí Philip Martin i measc na bpríosúnach a scaoileadh saor.
Micheál Martin said he was moved, emotional in the museum as he remembered his uncle.
Duirt Micheál Martin go raibh sé corraithe, mothálach san músaem agus é ag cuimhniú ar a uncail.
"We heard more stories about the hardships suffered by the prisoners, about the hard work they did, with little food.
"Is mó scéalta a chuala muid faoin gcruatan a d'fhulaing na priosúnaigh, faoin obair chrua a rinne siad, ar bheagán bia.
Philip left the camp weighing just eight stone", said the Taoiseach.
D’fhág Philip an campa agus gan é ach ocht gclocha meáchain", a dúirt an Taoiseach.
