Ok let me get this straight…in the next few years (including this year), we’ll be getting or we’ve already got:
- A spanking new Terminal 3 airport which just opened last month.
- A nine-storey high 140m-long, 4m-wide suspension bridge linking Mount Faber Park and Telok Blangah Hill Park, Singapore’s highest pedestrian bridge, completed recently.
- A brand new giant observation wheel (our version of the London Eye) called the “Singapore Flyer” starting next month.
- The world’s first ever night Formula 1 race held right here at Marina Bay in September this year.
- Two very large integrated resorts in Marina Bay and Sentosa in 2009.
- The inaugural Youth Olympics in 2010.
- A brand new state-of-the-art National Stadium as part of the brand new Singapore Sports Hub in 2011.
- A S$400million National Art Gallery in 2012.
It doesn’t get any better than this for Singapore Inc, folks.
Name me another country with that many new exciting projects lined up. (Ok, apart from Dubai.)
No wonder they call us the “Disneyland of Asia”.
Sometimes I think that if we were run like a corporation, we’d be even more profitable than Exxon Mobil.
Hmmm…

Methinks it’s all too much.
