Check out these 13 industrial sites in government's confirmed list

These are for 1H13.

According to a release, the Ministry of Trade and Industry (MTI) launched its Industrial Government Land Sales Programme for the first half of 2013. To continue to meet potential demand for industrial land, there will be 13 sites in the Confirmed List and 9 sites in the Reserve List, with a total site area of 24.84 ha.

The proposed land quantum for the first half of 2013 is comparable to that of the second half of 2012. In 2012, a total of 47.69 ha of industrial land have been released.

This is about 1.4 times than that released in 2011. The Government will continue to release ample land through the IGLS programme so as to meet the needs of industrialists and to moderate industrial land prices.

The Government will continue to cap the land tenure at 30 years. In addition, shorter land tenure of about 22 years, targeted at the small and medium enterprises (SMEs) will continue to be released.

With shorter tenure and smaller size, industrialists can customise land-based facilities at more affordable prices.

To cater to the needs of SMEs who need larger industrial spaces, successful bidders of selected sites will be required to build a minimum number of large factory units.

This is in addition to the set of conditions for all Business 1 and Business 2 sites in the IGLS programme which took effect from 1 January 2012 to ensure that new industrial space built by developers on IGLS parcels can better meet industrialists’ needs for ready built space.

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.
