jurisdiction taken over by Pasir Panjang NPP and West Coast NPP respectively. Originally constructed in 1950, its location near the crossroad junction of Clementi Road, Pasir Panjang Road and West Coast Road provided the local residents of the many Malay kampungs dotted around the road and area with the security of a police presence. The old building was torn down in 1991 and the land levelled. The site is now a new condominium apartment – The Spectrum, which is built directly over the old police building and the surrounding land. Poh Ern Shih Temple Poh Ern Shih Temple (报恩寺) was built in 1954 by the famous businessman and devoted Buddhist, Mr Lee Choon Seng. The Buddhist temple was dedicated to Kṣitigarbha Bodhisattva and was built as a memorial to those who lost their lives during the Battle of Pasir Panjang in 1942. It is located on a small hilltop at Chwee Chian Road, off Pasir Panjang Road, along Singapore's southern coast.
