Post Box by David Wilmot.
London Post Box. It's not often known that when they first introduced they were dark green, but they were hard to find, so they painted them red.

Oh I see. Malaysia being a British colony before, still do have some of these Red Letter Boxes. Modern one has become squarish.

That is certainly a bold, bright red. Thanks for the info about post boxes originally being green.
