Singapore most competitive tourism industry in Asia

The countries that are traditionally more reliant on tourism also tend to invest more heavily in the sector, said UBS.

According to UBS, Singapore is a standout example where investment in T&T has ben running at over 5% of GDP the past few years. The company attributed this to the eefficiency of the Singaporean government, which identified tourism as a key pillar of growth in early 2000 and has poured resources into the sector. Among the most substantial T&T investments are clearly the two integrated resorts, which are now coming on line in phase.

Hong Kong, Korea and Malaysia are also among the highest rank in the region.

Singapore has successfully reengineered itself into a tourist destination. The city is now perceived to be 'more fun', with new tourist attractions increasingly coming on line.

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.
