Maintaining this momentum, however, will require certain reforms to strengthen the region’s economic and social sustainability. This will include reducing regulatory barriers to competition and market entry to help foster innovation, efficiency and productivity. The logistics sector plays a significant role in fostering economic development. Apart from its contribution to a country’s GDP, a well-developed logistics network has an impact on most economic activities.

  • 25 June 2011 MEDIA RELEASE LAUNCH of SINGAPORE's
    25 June 2011 MEDIA RELEASE LAUNCH OF SINGAPORE’S ELECTRIC VEHICLE TEST-BED The inter-agency Electric Vehicle (EV) Taskforce, led by the Energy Market Authority (EMA) and the Land Transport Authority (LTA), announced the launch of the electric vehicle test-bed in Singapore today. The objective of the EV test-bed is to test and gauge different EV prototypes and charging technologies given Singapore’s urbanised environment and road conditions, before deciding whether to roll it out for mass adoption. Key features of EV test-bed 2 For a start, the EV test-bed will be launched with: • Three outdoor and two indoor charging stations; • First batch of five Mitsubishi i-MiEVs; • Four smart electric drive (ed) Daimler vehicles; • First batch of participants comprising LTA, Ministry of Manpower (MOM), Mitsubishi Corporation and Senoko Energy1. 3 The test-bed will focus on gathering data and insights to guide the planning for future deployment of EVs, including the optimal ratio of charging stations to vehicles. For the convenience of the test-bed participants, charging stations have been designed to automatically collect data on the EV users’ charging patterns. To provide an adequate period for data collection, the test-bed will be extended by one year until end of 2013. (Please see Annex for location of EV charging stations). 4 The first batch of normal charging stations has been deployed at accessible locations for the pioneer batch of EV users. In addition, the first quick charging station2 will be deployed in the third quarter of 2011 and sited centrally for convenient access.

  • WRITE-UPS on the INITIATIVES Civil Aviation Authority of Singapore
    Annex B WRITE-UPS ON THE INITIATIVES Civil Aviation Authority of Singapore 1 Singapore Aviation Accident/Incident Reporting System The Singapore Aviation Accident/Incident Reporting System (SAIRS) was conceptualised in mid 2008 and implemented in early 2010. SAIRS was ingeniously designed to perform safety trending and analysis at aggregated state level by (i) adapt the European software to operate in Singapore environment and framework, (ii) interface with local airlines, maintenance organization and aerodrome operator‟s systems, (iii) integrate the electronic safety data collection with storage, (iv) sharing aviation safety data with other states should the need arise. With SAIRS, Singapore is the first in SE Asia to collect safety data according to ICAO standardized format electronically. The key benefits gained from the implementation are: Paperless system; Enhance Singapore aviation safety through In-depth safety data trending and analysis; Preventive actions and safety recommendation can be devised; Show casing Singapore as an advanced civil aviation center of excellence by sharing the capability with regional states; and Ease of data sharing with ICAO. Land Transport Authority 2 MyTransport.SG: Your Transport Companion MyTransport.SG (www.mytransport.sg) is LTA‟s new mobile channel providing a comprehensive range of travel information for both motorists and public transport users on a single platform. Launched on 16 March 2010, it is an extension of the WAP mobile services that are currently available on ONE.MOTORING and PublicTransport.SG.

  • 5. Singapore's Land Transport Management Plan
    5 Singapore’s land transport management plan1 Teik Soon Looi2 This chapter explores Singapore’s system of land transport management, describing what we have done and why. As many international observers have noted, Singapore is often regarded as a global exemplar for its management of the city-state, but transport management involves very complex issues and we have had to ‘shift the debate’ in our own jurisdiction to achieve sustainable change. I begin by asking how Singapore fares today. We have just celebrated 50 years of nation-building since independence. We are a compact city-state with one level of government, unlike Australia, which has a federal government and different states and territories. This makes things easier for us—decision-making is faster and centralised—but it also brings problems, which I will share. Our population is 5.5 million and still growing. Our land area is limited and housing already consumes 14 per cent and roads a further 12 per cent of the available land mass. We realised some time ago that we cannot go on building roads; this is a reality we had to face. 1 All data and figures used in this chapter come from the Land Transport Authority, Singapore. 2 The views expressed herein are the author’s responsibility and may not reflect the views of the Land Transport Authority, Singapore. 73 ROAD PRICING AND PROVISION Singapore has changed enormously over the past 50 years, from a city of congestion and overcrowded, unreliable buses in the 1960s and 1970s to an efficient, sustainable urban transport system today.

  • Chapter 8 Singapore Country Report
    Chapter 8 Singapore Country Report David S. Jones Policy and Management Consultant November 2014 This chapter should be cited as Jones, D. S. (2014), ‘Singapore Country Report’, in Zen, F. and M. Regan (eds.), Financing ASEAN Connectivity, ERIA Research Project Report FY2013, No.15.Jakarta: ERIA, pp.327-350. CHAPTER 8 Singapore Country Report David S. Jones Policy and Management Consultant Introduction Singapore is a city-state comprising a small island measuring 704 sq. km (including over 123 sq. km of land reclaimed from the sea). Its population in 2013 was 5.46 million (targeted to exceed 6 million). There are over 7,244 people per sq. km, the highest in the ASEAN region. Not surprisingly, much of the country is built up, consisting of houses, apartment blocks, office and retail buildings, public amenities, infrastructure facilities, and factories and workshops. It lacks natural resources, the most serious of which is a sufficient natural water supply, though it is well endowed with sheltered deep-water harbours and anchorages. Singapore has experienced strong economic growth over the last 30 years or more, enabling its population to achieve the highest income per capita in East Asia. In tandem with its economic development, small size and dense population, Singapore's government also places a high premium on the creation of an advanced infrastructure and on the adoption of appropriate funding arrangements. This paper first provides an overview of Singapore's government administration, economy, and public finance. The main part of the paper examines the institutional framework and financial arrangements to facilitate the development and operation of the different infrastructure sectors.
