Singapore ranked 4th in Asian hotel investments

Japan led the market activity with $600 million worth of transactions.

According to Jones Lang LaSalle, during 2010, the Asian hotel market witnessed 43 major transactions with activity dominated by Japan, China, Hong Kong, India, Singapore and Thailand.

China, Hong Kong, India, Singapore and Thailand had transactions worth $533 million, $397 million, $325 million, $323 million and $164 million respectively.

Although Singapore, along with Hong Kong, dominated the hotel markets in Southeast Asia, Japan and China still led the market activity in the Asian region.

Asian transaction volume is projected to increase through 2011 to total around US$2.75 million. Japan is expected to emerge as the investment hot spot in 2011, due to the availability of stock.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

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.
