Communicable Diseases Centre (CDC), Singapore

“Or Sai” (“Black Lion” in Hokkien – due to the iconic black lion emblem of the centre) at Moulmein Road. The Communicable Diseases Centre will be moving to its new premises in 2018 (perhaps making way for another condominium block?), so there are a few short years to enjoy the nice green environs.

A speed sign within CDC. You can just about make out the Ropalidia spp. paper wasp nests hanging from it.
