In 12 Tai Gin Road (Singapore 327874), located off Ah Hood Road, is one of Singapore's most significant historical landmark - the Sun Yat Sen Nanyang Memorial Hall, a colonial-era villa that served as the South-East Asian (Nanyang) headquarters of Chinese revolutionary Sun Yat Sen's Chinese Revolutionary League (Tong Meng Hui 同盟会) during the early 20th century (1906-1911).

Dr Sun Yat Sen (孙中山 / 孙文), a medical doctor, championed the idea of a democratic Chinese Republic and is widely acknowledged as the father of modern China (post-Qing dynasty era). In 1911, the revolutionaries succeeded in overthrowing the Qing government and Dr Sun became the first Provisional President of the Republic of China. Today, the villa/memorial is a National Monument that is owned and managed by the Singapore Chinese Chamber of Commerce & Industry (SCCCI).
