27 August 2011 is a public holiday

Polling Day is a public holiday in accordance with Section 17 of the Presidential Elections Act.

The Ministry of Manpower said Polling Day, as a public holiday, should be treated in the same manner as any other public holiday.

“All employees covered by the Employment Act are entitled to paid public holidays. If an employee is required to work on Polling Day, he is entitled to an extra day's salary for the day's work, or be given a day off. Employees not required to work on that day are also entitled to one day off-in-lieu, or be given one day's pay, similar to other public holidays falling on a Saturday,” said the Ministry.

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.

If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
