  • The Monocle Singapore Survey 2009
    The Monocle Singapore Survey 2009 Finance, logistics, culture, tourism: a national survey of the forces shaping Singapore SINGAPORE HOST CITY Welcome Monocle’s National Survey: Singapore There are few countries that can be seen in their entirety from just a few thousand feet above sea level but it’s the compact, city-state profile that makes Singapore such a curious player on the international stage and attractive hub for businesses from a host of sectors. As other nations have spent billions attracting investment and talent to create similar groupings of logistics companies, banks, hotel groups, respected academic institutions and technology brands, virtually all have to follow a model that Singapore’s been honing for decades. Having established itself as not only the most important commerce centre in Southeast Asia but also a benchmark for everything from civil aviation management to public housing development, the nation state is now staring out across the horizon and charting its next act to stay relevant and, more importantly, competitive. In a world that’s increasingly going point to point when it comes to travel (longer range, more fuel-e4cient aircraft threaten major transit hubs such as Singapore’s Changi) and is also interested in one-stop solutions (will Shanghai eventually emerge as Asia’s singular global financial hub?), Singapore has its share of challenges in both the short and long term but it’s also been moving swiftly to develop new areas of expertise to diversify its o3er. For the past three months 9;:;687 editors and writers have been shuttling in and out of Singapore to interview 67;s, sample exhibitions, visit refineries and simply scope out the streets.While the scale and pace of development for the new integrated resorts beyond the financial district is breathtaking and the growth in medical tourism should be of concern to Bangkok up the road, the most impressive development in the country’s economy is the rise of a new class of young, globally minded entrepreneurs who are adding a new layer to the retail, restaurant, media and hotel scene.

  • PRESS RELEASE Tyler Brûlé to Launch Monocle – a New Global
    Ground Floor Boston Place Marylebone London : + () : + () [email protected] www.monoclemagazine.com PRESS RELEASE Tyler Brûlé to launch Monocle – a new global media brand London – Monday 23 October 2006 In 1996 a 25-year-old journalist saw a gap in the market for a magazine that targeted an untapped global audience and merged architecture, interior design, fashion and food. Mesmerising in its unswerving internationalist style and dry, provocative wit, Wallpaper* swiftly became an adjective in its own right. At the vanguard of the last decade’s design renaissance, Wallpaper* established a blueprint for a new breed of magazine and defined a new, single edition publishing concept. Ten years, thirteen magazine awards, an FT column and the creation of design agency Winkreative later, Wallpaper* founder Tyler Brûlé is set to launch the second ground-breaking publication of his career. Monocle will launch in February 2007. Created for an audience that existing media models currently ignore, Monocle is a global media brand that combines print, web and broadcast components. At its core lies a monthly magazine delivering original coverage in global affairs, business, culture and design. Sitting alongside will be a web-based broadcast component delivering bulletins, mini-documentaries and talk formats. Monocle will be published from a London hub and from launch will have editorial bureaux in New York, Zürich and Tokyo. Staffed by an editorial team of 22, the team has been drawn from the Independent, BBC, The New York Times and a host of other international news organizations. Printed in the UK, the magazine will focus its distribution in Europe, North America and the Asia-Pacific region.

Dali (Department of Urban and Regional Planning, Kulliyyah of Architecture and Environmental Design, International Islamic University Malaysia, Malaysia) Abstract: This article discusses selected worldwide indicators on quality of life vis-à-vis liveability. It comprises indicators promulgated by the Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU), Mercer (The global human resources consulting firm) and Monocle (The culture and lifestyle magazine). By index, the EIU refers it as Global Liveability Index; Mercer calls it Quality of Living Index while Monocle means it as Most Liveable City Index. The first index consists of 30 indicators grouped under 5 categories; the second constitutes 39 indicators broken down into 10 groups and the third is made up of 11 indicators with an addition of 22 metrics for its 2016 assessment. The study employed meta-ethnography qualitative approach by in-depth analysis and synthesis on the respective set of indicators. It is a systematic approach that enables comparison, analysis and interpretations to be made that can facilitate theorizing and practice. The analysis revealed the commonalities and differences amongst the three set of quality of life indicators. The result suggests that they are common in the sense that all of them are revolving around the five domains throughout their indicators, i.e., politics, economics, social, environment and infrastructure.
