Singapore, U.S. focus on heat resilience in new pact

The parties will also strengthen cooperation in areas like coastal science.

Singapore and the United States have inked a pact to collaborate on environmental management and climate protection.

Under the memorandum of understanding (MOU) signed by the Singapore Ministry of Sustainability and the Environment (MSE) and the U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), both parties will strengthen cooperation areas like climate monitoring and prediction and coastal science.

The parties will also collaborate on modelling to support coastal protection and flood resilience efforts, earth observations for environmental monitoring, and heat resilience.

“MSE, including its statutory boards, National Environment Agency and national water agency PUB, and NOAA will also conduct technical exchanges, information sharing and joint publications and projects under this MOU,” the parties announced.

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.
