Children's crossing in Singapore

Visitors who have read more than a page or two of this site probably will recognize that this sign should be classified with the UK-group. The find from Egypt that I'm showing is a typical example of this family.

Singapore, while keeping to the standard, manages to add a personal touch to the drawing.
Two details make this find stand out:
1) The girl features a real waist-line. She could be wearing a skirt. All other UK-girls are hidden below a shapeless dress.
2) The boy is stalling. All other UK-boys are running. This could be an intermediate stage on the way to a dominant boy like in so many other designs.
