“An umbrella, a lonely raindrop, and in some cases, an arrow. A euphemism for fallout shelters? Directions to an umbrella district? To a Mary Poppins theme park? These signs are dotted around the island.”What is this Singaporean road sign trying to tell us?
“Indeed, the peculiarities of Singapore�s weather�not to mention its wealth, obsession with urban design, and diminutive geographic dimensions (the country would fit inside Lexington, Kentucky, with room to spare)�explains why these shelters make particular sense here.”
