Jurong East Mall finally opens on 15 June

Unsettled fire permits caused delay.

The management of Jurong East Mall (JEM) has finally announced that Singapore's third largest suburban mall will open on Saturday, June 15 at 10am. This follows after delaying its opening last Tuesday over administrative issues.

The Singapore Civil Defence Force noted that they have approved 229 fire safety applications sent by JEM as of Thursday.

It was reported that JEM was not able to secure the necessary fire permits which halted its official opening. To welcome shoppers, JEM will be giving away $10 vouchers to its first 1,000 shoppers.

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.
