Singapore to double rail capacity to 360km by 2030

Government to invest 'heavily' in rail lines.

According to Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Finance Tharman Shanmugaratnam by 2030, Singapore will be doubling its entire rail capacity to 360km.

"This will be a massive investment. We have a lot more to do in infrastructural investments. We are investing heavily in our rail lines. Over the next ten years, we will expand our rail network by about 100km – more than any other ten-year period in our history," he said at the Budget 2014 Debate Round-Up in Parliament.

"The expansion of Changi Airport will be another important investment – Terminal 5, in order to cater to many more passengers. The airport is a key industry in its own right – staying relevant and competitive in the aviation space is an important economic strategy for us. It is also an important infrastructure for supporting our wider economy," he added.

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
