    PRESS RELEASE Guangzhou Knowledge City Launches

    PRESS RELEASE Guangzhou Knowledge City Launches “Software” Collaboration Initiative with Singapore 30 June 2011 – Singbridge International Singapore Pte Ltd (Singbridge), and its joint venture partner Guangzhou Development District (GDD), have launched a “software” collaboration initiative with Singapore in the development of the Sino- Singapore Guangzhou Knowledge City (Guangzhou Knowledge City). The joint venture is the master developer of the 123 sq km Guangzhou Knowledge City. Singbridge manages this software collaboration with the various participating Singapore organizations and government agencies. “Software” refers to the policies, processes and methods to plan, develop and manage a city including urban design, environment, infrastructure, economic and social development. At today’s ceremony, 4 software training and 5 software co-operation projects were launched. More training and co-operation projects will be introduced to meet the development needs of the Guangzhou Knowledge City. The Guangzhou Knowledge City can tap on Singapore’s successful development experience through this software collaboration initiative. Mr Lui Tuck Yew, Singapore’s Minister for Transport and Second Minister for Foreign Affairs, and Co-Chairman of the Singapore-Guangdong Collaboration Council, officiated the launch ceremony together with other dignitaries from Singapore and Guangdong. Said Minister Lui, “I believe software will be a key driver to achieve the Guangzhou Knowledge City’s vision of becoming a vibrant, unique and world class city that is highly attractive to knowledge-intensive enterprises, talent and skilled personnel. The right software will differentiate the Knowledge City from others around the world. It is therefore important to integrate the best of Chinese, Singapore and world software and adapt them to meet the evolving needs of the Knowledge City.” Mr Ko Kheng Hwa, CEO of Singbridge, added “Software is hard to implement.

The convent, established in 1854 in central Singapore, is now the ‗premier lifestyle destination‘, CHIJMES. I show that the Sisters were early providers of social services and girls‘ education, with an orphanage, women‘s refuge and schools for girls. They survived the turbulent years of the Japanese Occupation of Singapore and adapted to the priorities of the new government after independence, expanding to become the largest cloistered convent in Southeast Asia.

Using data gathered from in-depth interviews conducted with Singaporean undergraduates study- ing at Oxbridge and a dataset of the institutional origins of 580 Singap- orean government scholars, the analysis illustrates how students are being matched from two Singaporean junior colleges to Oxbridge and back to the higher strata of the Singaporean Public Service.
