WORLD CITIES SUMMIT 2016
WELCOME MESSAGE Distinguished Guests and Delegates, Welcome to Singapore! This week, we are honoured to host the 5th edition of the World Cities Summit (WCS), in conjunction with the Singapore International Water Week and the CleanEnviro Summit Singapore. The three global events aim to foster an integrated approach to achieve greater liveability and sustainability in our cities.
Mr Lawrence Wong
Minister Ministry of National Development Singapore
Dense but liveable cities offer the best odds for sustainable development. Smart and compact living can help to create economies of scale, where citizens travel less and urban sprawl is contained. To reap these benefits, integrated planning and close partnerships are essential. These valuable partnerships are exactly what the WCS 2016 hopes to initiate. With the theme of “Liveable and Sustainable Cities: Innovative Cities of Opportunity”, WCS 2016 is a platform for governments, businesses, academia and international organisations to share best practices and actionable solutions to address urban challenges. This year’s WCS will focus on the themes of governance, innovation, planning and resilience. We welcome distinguished global leaders and industry experts who will be sharing with us their valuable insights and experiences. We also welcome more than 100 mayors and city leaders from over 40 countries, with many first-time attendees from leading cities. The 2016 Lee Kuan Yew World City Prize Laureate has been conferred to the city of Medellín. At the Prize Lecture, the city leaders will share how they have transformed Medellín from one of the world’s most dangerous cities to a highly liveable and innovative city. It’s a remarkable story that I am sure will inspire us all in striving for further urban innovations in our own cities. In addition to the debates and discussions, we welcome visitors to explore the “City Solutions Singapore” Expo which will showcase cutting-edge urban solutions and technologies. Singapore is taking an active role in driving the global conversation on liveable and sustainable cities. I hope that meaningful partnerships will be forged at this Summit, and wish everyone a fruitful and exciting time in Singapore.

WORLD CITIES SUMMIT YOUNG LEADERS SYMPOSIUM (By Invitation Only)
SYNOPSIS
The 3rd WCS Young Leaders Symposium is an exclusive, annual meeting for these WCS Young Leaders to discuss common challenges and shared solutions in urbanisation. It is a platform that harnesses the collective wisdom and experience of the Young Leaders for intellectual discourse and launching initiatives to tackle the urban challenges of tomorrow. The conversation from the WCS Young Leaders Symposium in New York City last year continues in Singapore this year alongside the World Cities Summit 2016. The WCS Young Leaders will get the chance to dialogue with leading business and city leaders, with a focus on the theme “Innovative Cities of Opportunity”.
Symposium Chairperson: Desmond Lee Senior Minister of State, Ministry of National Development & Ministry of Home Affairs, Singapore
MORNING Sands B 5201 & 5202, Level 5
SESSION 1 : IN CONVERSATION The WCS Young Leaders will converse with Mr. Peter Brabeck-Letmathe, Chairman of Nestlé S.A on the roles of private sector players in promoting the efficient use of resources (water, food and energy), and also in nutrition and wellness provision. Nestle has a philosophy of creating shared values for its shareholders, suppliers and society as a whole. Themes that repeatedly surface at Session 1 will form the basis of more in-depth discussions in Session 2.
MORNING Sands B 5201 & 5202, Level 5
SESSION 2 : INNOVATIVE CITIES OF OPPORTUNITY Building on the themes discussed at the Mayors Forum, Young Leaders will give their inputs to the “Wicked Problems” raised by mayors, as well as the corresponding solutions which were raised during “Inventing the Toolbox”.

WORLD CITIES SUMMIT MAYORS FORUM (By Invitation Only)
LIVEABLE AND SUSTAINABLE CITIES: INNOVATIVE CITIES OF OPPORTUNITY SYNOPSIS
The 7th WCS Mayors Forum is an exclusive, annual meeting for mayors and city leaders to come together to address pressing urban challenges. Cities at different stages of development all grapple with managing the traditional challenges of housing, transportation, infrastructure financing, and environmental sustainability. These complexities are further compounded by rapidly changing modes of operation, new and disruptive technologies and changing expectations and demands from citizens. What innovations are taking place in cities these days, and how can city leaders ride this wave of change to make sure that the quality of life is improved and not compromised? The two sessions of the Mayors Forum will address the innovations and changes city leaders are implementing in their cities, and then, how these can be managed.
Forum Chairperson: Lawrence Wong Minister for National Development, Singapore
MORNING Sands Grand Ballroom O-J, Level 5
SESSION 1 : INNOVATIVE SOLUTIONS: NEW ANSWERS TO WICKED PROBLEMS This session will invite sharing from the Mayors about how they are innovating approaches to some of their city’s toughest and long standing challenges in the areas of smart cities/big data, housing, transportation, economic development and sustainability. The social aspects of these areas will be discussed in terms of how housing, transportation and economic development affect social integration and equity.

SESSION 2: INNOVATIVE GOVERNANCE: INVENTING THE TOOLBOX FOR BETTER CITIES This session focuses on process innovation and governance, and how city leaders are reorganising and integrating their urban systems, as well as their processes and approach to address urban issues. One of the more pertinent challenges to Mayors, is being able to function effectively within multiple levels of government, including state and federal levels. What are Mayors doing to overcome some of these operational challenges that stem from the system?

12 JULY TUESDAY MORNING 9am – 12.30pm Sands Grand Ballroom G-H, Level 5
THEMATIC TRACKS MAYORS TAKING CHARGE SYNOPSIS The track will explore the global debate over what constitutes good urban governance, and how it can be achieved, from the power balance between different levels of government to the balancing of resources to finance necessary developments. The sessions will also examine innovative urban governance models for urban development and service delivery, as well as the organisation of public institutions, and how these interact with the private sector and civil society. In an increasingly complex world with cities that are such complex eco-systems, there is an urgent need to increase integrity in governance, creating effective capabilities for regulation and enforcement, coordinating across overlapping jurisdictions, and strengthening the role of the people sector as partners in urban governance. Urban issues do not exist in isolation. Population growth, economic turbulence, housing supply and affordability, transport network, water supply and sanitation are all interlinked. To understand and manage urban issues, there should be a cross-sector approach and constant re-balancing of short-term needs with long-term priorities.
MORNING 9am – 10.30am Sands Grand Ballroom G-H, Level 5
SESSION 1 : MAYORS TAKING CHARGE – THE LONG AND SHORT OF IT Cities tend to be more nimble and hence, more responsive to adapt to global changes and meet local needs, as compared to national responses. City-level initiatives on climate change actions are a good example. Against that backdrop, are there more mayors taking charge and taking actions? Should they? The relationship between cities and their national governments is a dynamic one that can be completely different with a change in positions of power. Yet it is a critical one that directly affects the city and its people.

SESSION 2 : UNLIMITED DEMANDS, LIMITED RESOURCES: WHERE IS THE MONEY? Cities and metropolitan regions in the developed world face dwindling revenues as their populations age, yet at the same time, they need to bear the burden of renewing ageing infrastructure and providing public services for ageing populations. In developing nations, as urbanisation rages through their cities, there are simultaneous calls for infrastructure developments to meet economic needs and sustainable measures to protect the environment – both of which require resources which the emerging cities do not have.

THEMATIC TRACKS CAN WE MAKE THE CITIES WE WANT? SYNOPSIS Cities have never prospered as much as in the past three decades. The urban population in 2014 accounted for 54% of the total global population, up from 34% in 1960, and the global urban population is expected to grow approximately 1.84% per year between 2015 and 2020. Accounting for approximately 70% of global GDP, cities drive the world’s economy and are vibrant engines of opportunity, commerce, culture, and an improved quality of life. Yet this major shift toward cities has created critical challenges: climate change; achieving economic, social, and environmental sustainability; and building a better quality of life. In spite of these, cities remain hotbeds for innovation and reinvention. New infrastructure and urban development models are emerging that are scalable and engage citizens, industry leaders and policy makers alike. Smart and sustainable solutions are being employed to enhance cities’ liveability, efficiency and productivity. To this end, this track will explore and develop tools that allow cities to consider, evaluate, and highlight new models of city-making by showcasing transformational models of urban development. It is designed to equip mayors and other private sector leaders with the information necessary to transform their own communities and ignite further dialogue. It will discuss best practices in optimising planning decisions, designing effective plans for execution, and solutions for stakeholder engagement to achieve desired urban policy outcomes.
MORNING 9am – 10.30am Sands Grand Ballroom C-D, Level 5
SESSION 1 : THE CITY WE WANT – SUCCESSFUL PARTNERSHIPS FOR SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENTS This session will tap on the experiences of rapidly growing cities, to uncover public-private sector partnerships and pragmatism for sustainable development. It is curated specifically to address the challenges of urban growth in an integrated and inter-sectoral manner. International organisations will discuss how they have worked with city governments to shape and devise effective urban policies and plans. Leading academia and experts will discuss the latest trends and innovations, including promotion of community engagement efforts that policy makers and planners should incorporate in their urban plans for the future. Successful case studies will be shared of how infrastructure planning decisions can be implemented at the right time, and how to construct public projects in the most efficient manner to ensure advancement of community goals and improved quality of life. The sharing of critical interventions, applied technologies, key performance outcome measures, and creative processes will demonstrate the showcased cities’ proven impact, replicability, and scalability.

SESSION 2 : CITIES FOR THE PEOPLE – INNOVATION FOR SUSTAINABLE COMMUNITIES Who are cities for? Fundamentally, cities are not just about streets, buildings and infrastructure, they are about people. Sustainable and affordable housing is essential to expanding a city’s creative capital. The challenge is more than just providing adequate shelter; it encompasses social and economic aspects of life, physical elements and cultural barriers across urban forums. There can be no sustainable urbanization without a roof over everyone’s head and providing decent, affordable housing is a growing challenge in developing and developed cities alike. This track will illustrate the opportunities and pitfalls of providing sustainable and affordable housing, and how global leaders can successfully put housing back at the centre of their urban agenda.

THEMATIC TRACKS INNOVATIVE SOLUTIONS FOR A SMART CITY SYNOPSIS The track will showcase technology solutions, as well as social innovations, that can tackle challenges faced by cities. It will address how governments, businesses, and research institutions can work together to create a healthy eco-system for solutions generation. The sessions will focus on how being a smart city should essentially be about enabling urban residents to live more comfortable and fulfilled lives as the city develops more sustainably through the use of technology.
MORNING 9am – 10.30am Sands Grand Ballroom E-F, Level 5
SESSION 1 : SMART CITIES: LEADING THE WAY The calls for smart cities have been loud and clear from governments and city leaders around the world. Smart cities should reap the benefits of technology such as the efficient and effective delivery of public services, better traffic monitoring and management, safer and better homes and living environment for everyone, etc. Plans are thus being made to transform their cities into smart cities in order to reap these benefits.

SESSION 2 : SMART CITIES: AN EQUAL PARTNERSHIP BETWEEN THE PUBLIC AND PRIVATE SECTORS Realising the vision of smart cities necessitates the involvement of all stakeholders. Even as the direction is clear, the methods to move forward, the roles of the public, private and people sectors, as well as the resources to finance smart city transformations are not as clear cut. For example, all plans will remain on paper without adequate funding, collaboration or expertise. Governments are typically not as nimble or as innovative as the private sector, but corporations are prone to focus on financial benefits rather than social dividends. In contrast, the most impactful urban innovations are often the product of close collaboration between governments, research institutes and private enterprises, including support from the ground. Beyond the “Why”, this session will examine the “How to” of smart city developments.

THEMATIC TRACKS BUILDING RESILIENT CITIES AND COMMUNITIES SYNOPSIS Different facets of resilience will be examined in this track, including the ability of cities to cope with stressors on infrastructure and the environment, as well as the resilience of the city’s economy which will impact jobs and the livelihoods of its people.
PROGR AMME SYNOPSIS
12 JULY TUESDAY MORNING A very important part of building resilient cities is to strengthen the physical city – in terms of its infrastructure, management systems, as well as critical disaster risk management capabilities. Equally important is the building up of resilience within the society through social innovations and novel approaches to actively engage residents so that cities can better address the challenges they face, whether they are natural disasters or man-made problems. City resilience is akin to how healthy a body system is. It is important that the city has the right well-functioning organs (i.e. the infrastructure and their readiness and autonomy) to tackle threats and crises. However, having healthy organs in itself is not enough without a good nerve system. A weak nerve system will become the weakest link in spite of good organs. Hence building up hardware itself is not enough, for resilience ought to be ultimately people-centered.

SESSION 1 : STRENGTHENING THE PHYSICAL CITY This session will focus on the critical ingredients for building cities to be more resilient to climate change effects and disaster risks. Fundamentally, city resilience lies in ensuring solid basic infrastructure. When disaster strikes, cities that have systems that can operate autonomously are more resilient than those that are co-dependent and thus failure of one component leads to a massive collapse. A city’s resilience also depends significantly on how integrated it is in its responsiveness. If a city is faced with a disaster such as massive flooding, how effectively can residents reach for help from emergency services? How fast can city leaders and key decision makers make the call on the action to be taken in restoring essential services to residents?

SESSION 2 : ENHANCING SOCIAL RESILIENCE Having greater economic, technical, political and social links create strong feedback loops that in turn induce resilience within a city. A more cohesive community is likely to bounce back from adverse situations, and is self-motivating to restore itself by drawing upon social capital for access to information and communication networks in times of difficulty, and extending help to one another. With each difficulty overcome, the society becomes more resilient. Without wishing for difficulties and crises, how then can we foster social resilience? This panel will examine the possibilities and share case studies of strategies that have worked.

The WCS Plenary rounds off the discussion sessions of the day, as well as from the day before. It is intended to pull together the insights and best practices in governance, planning, resilience and innovation, with a focus on the sustainable development of cities for the future. Considering the perennial challenges of urbanisation and the pressing need in many cities to deliver services to stakeholders effectively, the cities of tomorrow must be innovative and citizen-driven. Against this backdrop, speakers will share successful game-changing initiatives implemented in different cities, and underscore the important mandate of city leaders to lead and effect real changes globally, by piloting innovations, fostering partnerships, and allowing opportunities for businesses and citizens to co-create new economies for a sustainable urban future. The closing remarks will drive home the message for city leaders to work with urban stakeholders to create liveable, competitive and sustainable environments, while mitigating the potential challenges coming from environmental deterioration, economic stagnation and social unrest.

CHINA BUSINESS FORUM CHINA’S NEW NORMAL: BALANCING THE ECONOMY, LIVEABILITY AND ENVIRONMENTAL SUSTAINABILITY China’s sustained economic growth has left an indelible mark on the global economic outlook. Facing a seemingly inevitable economic slowdown, China’s 13th Five-Year plan aims at steering the world’s second largest economy towards a new stage of development – the “New Normal”. With a GDP target of around 6.5% set for the next five years, economic reform along with sustainable and inclusive growth have been identified as two key focus areas. The private sector is poised to take on a greater role in economic growth and resource efficiency. China’s Belt and Road Initiative is also expected to stimulate regional infrastructure development. Recognising the threat that environmental degradation poses to its economic goals, China is emphasizing on water and environmental sustainability to elevate the quality of life. To this end, the Chinese government has rolled out initiatives including Sponge Cities and a major revision of the Environmental Protection Law. This Business Forum will delve deeper into the challenges and opportunities of China’s New Normal, and offer insights into what these could mean for the industry players, professionals and individuals keen on the Chinese market.

INNOVATIVE SOLUTIONS FOR A SMART CITY (II) Co-organised with the Smart Nation Programme Office, Singapore SYNOPSIS This track will showcase technology solutions and social innovations that can tackle challenges faced by cities. It will address how governments, businesses, and research institutions can work together to create a healthy eco-system for solutions generation. The sessions will focus on how being a smart city should essentially be about enabling residents in cities to live more comfortable and fulfilled lives as the city develops more sustainably through the use of technology.
AFTERNOON 3.20pm – 4.50pm Sands Grand Ballroom E-F, Level 5
SESSION 3 : SMART TOWNS: URBAN INNOVATIONS THAT ARE SCALABLE, SUSTAINABLE AND USER-FRIENDLY Many smart urban innovations have been implemented in cities around the world, bringing about better delivery of public services, resolving old challenges and addressing new ones. More than celebrating successful case studies, we need to explore how these innovations can be replicated. The most successful solutions are usually highly customised to address the specific challenge faced within the unique context of the city. Hence, it is critical to look beyond the hype of the success and consider more fundamental attributes of smart urban innovations that are replicable and scalable so that other cities can shorten their learning curve to implement solutions to common challenges. This panel will share case studies of urban innovations that work, and examine the elements that can be acquired and adapted by other cities to address similar challenges in their own unique context. More importantly, the solutions need to be sustainable beyond the excitement of initial implementation, and a critical factor is to ensure user-friendliness for the masses to access and benefit from smart city innovations.

CULTURE - SHOULD WE CARE? Co-organised with the Ministry of Culture, Community and Youth, Singapore SYNOPSIS This track offers delegates the opportunity to discuss the integration of the arts and culture in urban planning and the design of cities. Beyond the traditional comforts of housing, sanitation, infrastructure and transport, what gives cities their soul – a sense of vibrancy and historic connection to the past? Against the backdrop of rapid technological advancements, accelerating urbanisation and growing diversity in world cities, the liveability and sustainability of cities is no longer just contingent on the satiation of material needs. Quality of life is also very much dependent on the softer aspects of what defines a city. Recognising that a city’s artistic, cultural and creative offerings as well intangible heritage contribute to place-making, the sessions will focus integrating heritage and culture in the planning and design of cities and business, not-for-profit organisations and community groups can work culture up the urban planning agenda.

SESSION 1 : THE CASE FOR CULTURE IN URBAN POLICY Economic and population growth in cities has presented great opportunities for urban development, innovation and enhancing material well-being. On the other hand, this rapid growth also has an impact on infrastructure demands, and the environmental, economic and social fabric of cities. With the numerous challenges and planning considerations that are already weighing on city governments and urban planners, where does cultural development fit in? Should cities care about culture? The relationship between cultural development and urban planning will be an increasingly important one as cities recognise how culture can contribute to liveability, branding, identity and ownership. • How do the arts, culture and heritage contribute to the civic life of a city? • How can cities reconcile different understandings between growth and cultural value? In this regard, what can city leaders do to harness the benefits of growth and development, while not pushing out cultural development, heritage preservation and creativity? • The impact of culture is not as easy to measure as the other more quantitative indicators of a city’s growth and success. What tools have cities developed to measure the value and impact of culture on the city and its inhabitants?

SESSION 2 : SPACES FOR PLACES – APPROACHES TO PRESERVATION AND CREATIVE PLACE-MAKING This panel session looks at the various approaches that cities all over the world have taken to weave arts, culture and heritage into the urban fabric. From street art to festivals, cultural districts to the adaptive reuse of historic buildings, the possibilities for preservation and creative place-making are endless, and can provide much inspiration for the city and its inhabitants. These initiatives have shaped the cultural development of cities in many ways, such as in sparking urban revitalisation, increasing cultural participation and creating a more distinctive identity for cities. However, cities also face practical challenges, such as ensuring equitable growth and sustainability, aligning different commercial community and cultural interests and fostering innovation. How have cities overcome these challenges, and what are some of the more successful approaches and strategies? • What soft infrastructures and capabilities need to be put in place for creative and cultural place-making? • How can cities ensure that strategies for preservation and creative place-making are sustainable and provide opportunities for community engagement and education? • What is the role of partnerships and collaborations between multiple stakeholders such as policymakers, private investors, foundations, not-for-profit organisations, artists and community groups in creative and cultural place-making?

FINANCING A SUSTAINABLE URBAN FUTURE Co-organised with the Institute of Real Estate Studies, National University of Singapore SYNOPSIS This thematic forum discusses the opportunities and challenges that cities face in financing a sustainable urban future. The two main areas of discussion are: Infrastructure Financing for Developing Economies and Life-Cycle Financing for an Ageing Population.
MORNING 9am – 10.30am Sands Grand Ballroom E, Level 5
SESSION 1 : FINANCING THE INFRASTRUCTURE GAP – THE ROAD AHEAD Why does the “infrastructure gap” – estimated by the World Bank to be an annual shortfall of about US$1 trillion – continue to persist? Several factors contribute to this unmet demand for infrastructure, especially in developing countries. The rapid pace of urbanization often leads to the acceleration of infrastructure demands. The long gestation periods of these projects compound the issue by extending economic, political, and institutional uncertainties. Governments alone cannot shoulder this looming infrastructure gap. Private commercial lenders, institutional investors and multilateral development banks all have an integral part to play in realizing a sustainable urban future. What are the key trends and developments that will change the way infrastructure is financed? From developing credible projects to lowering barriers to investment and facilitating long-term capital, how can various players and stakeholders bring change?

SESSION 2 : LIFE-CYCLE FINANCING FOR AN AGEING POPULATION – MANAGING FUTURE DEMANDS In the coming decades, the demands of an ageing society are set to intensify. These demands raise concerns on healthcare and exert pressures on financial resources. This issue is manifested in many countries but could be exacerbated in many Asian cities. Breadwinners of Asian families usually spend a large portion of their income over their working life to pay off housing debts. They accrue substantial housing equity (wealth) over the years, but they have little cash to support their consumption and medical needs at retirement. These households are often vulnerable to housing market shocks. In addition, two major risks – longevity and inflation on household savings – have to be considered. In this context, an understanding of life-cycle financing will be crucial to securing a sustainable future for urban households. What implications will wealth allocation and consumption behavior of urban households have on social-economic policies aimed at improving quality of life, as well as meeting healthcare and consumption needs of the aging cohort?

LATIN AMERICA BUSINESS FORUM: CHALLENGES AND OPPORTUNITIES AMID A TRANSITIONING URBAN POPULATION By 2050, Latin America is projected to grow to 750 million inhabitants, with UN-Habitat projecting that 90% of these inhabitants will be living in cities. To cater to this trend of increasing urbanisation, infrastructure investment in Latin America and the Caribbean have been gaining momentum in the past few years. Externally, Latin America countries have been cultivating relationships between the region and the rest of the world to facilitate trade and investment opportunities . This is seen by the recently signed Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP), the landmark deal signed between 12 participating nations, which will lower trade barriers and tariffs between Asia-Pacific and Latin American counterparts. The forum will look at some of Latin America’s largest economies: Brazil, Mexico and Colombia. The Mexican government’s 2014-2018 National Infrastructure Plan will see public and private investments in infrastructure reach US$590 billion by 2018. The Brazilian government announced a new list of planned infrastructure concessions worth US$55 billion to be auctioned off to private sector companies. The Colombian government is aggressively pursuing investments in infrastructure and has announced a US$70 billion infrastructure plan to 2035, including an ambitious road infrastructure programme. Business leaders familiar with this region will be sharing market trends, opportunities, their experiences and views on doing business in these countries and sectors.

INDIA BUSINESS FORUM: THE CHALLENGE OF INDIA’S INCLUSIVE GROWTH: DEVELOPMENT ASPIRATIONS & INVESTMENT OPPORTUNITIES Come 2030, 40% of India’s population will be living in urban areas and contributing to 75% of GDP. The World Bank estimates that India can expect a growth of over 7%, which puts India ahead of China; the world’s No. 2 economy after the U.S. India’s government is already making a start to balance its economic growth with sustainable development. Recognising that urban centres are engines of growth and employment, India has launched three mega schemes – Smart Cities Mission, Atal Mission for Rejuvenation and Urban Transformation (AMRUT), and Housing for All. The Housing for All scheme seeks to address India’s commitment to inclusive, sustainable, and affordable homes for its ever growing urban population. The Clean India Mission aims to accomplish the vision of sanitation and solid waste management. Projects planned under AMRUT – water supply, waste management and sewerage, urban transport, social sectors such as healthcare and education, and affordable housing to improve the quality of life for all – will also provide many project opportunities under the public-private partnership model. This forum will inquire India’s onset investment towards its development aspirations, and the synergic business opportunities that are made available as a result of India’s impending growth and its cities of opportunity.

CYCLING IN BISHAN - ANG MO KIO PARK RIVER PLAINS IN URBAN PARKSÂ
Bishan-Ang Mo Kio Park is one of the largest urban parks in central Singapore, covering a full 62 hectares of unique waterways and greenery. Under PUB’s Active, Beautiful and Clean (ABC) Waters programme, PUB and NParks jointly collaborated to deconcretise the old canal. It has been naturalised into a 3km meandering river with lush banks of wildflowers, creating a seamless blue-green recreational network which is well-integrated with nearby residential areas. With open lawns and gently sloping grassy banks along either side of the river, families can have picnics and gatherings while enjoying the beauty and tranquillity of the waterways. The park is also home to a wide array of interesting flora and fauna, making it ideal for nature lovers.
HIGHLIGHTS OF THE TOUR Stepping Stones / Recycle Hill Made up of concrete slabs salvaged from the old canal, the Recycle Hill provides a good vantage point to view the entire park. Sitting on top of the hill is the award-winning sculpture, An Enclosure for a Swing, created to represent the fusion of nature and design.
Water Playground The water playground provides an avenue for children to learn about water and the reservoirs through interactive & innovative water play equipment. This water playground is part of a water recirculation system for Bishan Pond Gardens. Water running through the playground is recycled and treated by the phytoremediation system (the use of living plants to remove impurities from contaminated soil). Cleasing Biotope The Cleansing Biotope is a series of artificially constructed wetlands consisting of nutrientpoor substrates and plants known for their natural water cleansing properties. These plants assist in removing unwanted elements from the water and also beautify the surroundings. The natural filtration system maintains the quality of the water in the park and the river naturally without the use of chemicals. A portion of the pond water is recycled for use for shallow water play in the Water Playground. 09 / SITE VISITS

WALKING IN BISHAN - ANG MO KIO PARK RIVER PLAINS IN URBAN PARKSÂ
Take a stroll through Bishan-Ang Mo Kio Park, one of the largest urban parks in central Singapore. The park consists of a full 62 hectares of unique waterways and greenery. Under PUB’s Active, Beautiful and Clean (ABC) Waters programme, PUB and NParks jointly collaborated to deconcretise the old canal. It has been naturalised into a 3-kilometre meandering river with lush banks of wildflowers, creating a seamless blue-green recreational network which is well-integrated with nearby residential areas. With open lawns and gently sloping grassy banks along either side of the river, families can have picnics and gatherings while enjoying the beauty and tranquillity of the waterways.

Sitting on top of the hill is the award-winning sculpture, An Enclosure for a Swing, created to represent the fusion of nature and design.
Inclusive Playground The Bishan-Ang Mo Kio Park inclusive playground is collaboration between the National Council of Social Service (NCSS) and the National Parks Board (NParks) and is one of the 11 inclusive playgrounds to be built across Singapore by end 2017. The playground was specially designed after consultation and discussion sessions with therapists and children of special needs from six voluntary welfare organisations (VWOs). The inclusive playground is meant for children of all abilities, including able-bodied ones, to have fun together and understand each other better. Butterfly Habitat The initial idea for the butterfly habitat originated from two local students from Raffles Institution. The students approached NParks in 2012 and requested for some space to start up a butterfly garden. Six months from the submission of the project proposal, this project was then taken over by a group of regular resident volunteers.

HERITAGE IN THE CITY
KAMPONG GLAM CONSERVATION AREA, THE HISTORIC SEAT OF MALAY ROYALTY This tour takes place in the historic Kampong Glam Conservation Area, a compact urban precinct of shop houses in various architectural styles and the former seat of Malay royalty. Highlights include two National Monuments – a visit to the Sultan Mosque, one of the most historic mosques in Singapore, and the former palace, the Istana Kampong Gelam, now the Malay Heritage Centre. Delegates will gain an understanding of how conservation planning and policy has shaped the evolution of the precinct. They will also visit the Aliwal Arts Centre, a conserved former school which has been adaptively retrofitted to house cultural and arts uses.

Kampong Glam Conservation Area Kampong Glam is a compact urban area of approximately 8.9ha. It was traditionally a Malay residential area with ethnic-based activities at the periphery and along Arab Street. The area predominantly comprises conserved shophouses of 2 to 3 storey height. The area was gazetted as a conservation area in 1989, and is one of four Historic Districts in Singapore (along with Chinatown, Little India and Boat Quay). Its unique characteristic lies in the contrast between its streetscape, with its low and uniform scale, and the large open spaces of the palace grounds. Malay Heritage Centre The Malay Heritage Centre project involved the restoration of the former Istana Kampong Glam and former Gedung Kuning, and the addition of 4 new single-storey blocks within the Istana compound. The former Istana has been recently gazetted as a monument. It is a heritage museum and the new single-storey blocks house a multi-purpose hall, arts and craft workshops, ancillary office and a souvenir shop. Aliwal Arts Centre The Aliwal Arts Centre was formerly the Chong Cheng Girls’ School and Chong Pun Boys’ School built by the Haw Par Brothers in 1938. This clearly shows the presence of Chinese population in Kampong Glam and nearby vicinity. It is now used as a centre for both traditional and contemporary arts and houses artists’ studios and performance spaces. Sultan Mosque It was formerly the royal mosque of the Sultan of Johor and was a timber building with a three-tiered attap roof when it was first built in 1824. When the Muslim congregation grew, it was rebuilt in 1924 and its design was heavily influenced by the IndoSaracenic style. This style combines traditional Indian and Islamic elements with European architectural features Rectangular in plan, the main prayer hall is skewed to align with the qibla, the orientation to the Islamic holy city of Mecca. The two-storey hall can hold up to 5,000 worshippers. It underwent some renovation recently and a new lift was added to cater for the aging worshippers and visitors. Below the dome of the mosque lies hundreds of brown drink bottles which were donated by the poor who wanted to contribute to the mosque’s construction. Arab Street and Haji Lane At popular Arab Street, you can still find many textile shops that have been there for generations. Other traditional trades housed in the shophouses include Middle Eastern carpets, basket-ware and Muslim religious paraphernalia. Nearby Haji Lane is believed to be Singapore’s narrowest street; barely the width of two cars. It used to be the hub of Muslims, in transit to Singapore, to prepare for their pilgrimage to Mecca. Now, it is a happening hub of shops and restaurants that are popular with the younger and working population. 09 / SITE VISITS

PUNGGOL
REALISING THE VISION OF NEW TOWNS A waterfront town of the 21st Century, Punggol is the vision of new towns. Featuring a new concept in housing, the town is served by an integrated transport network and clustered amenities, and supported by commercial centres with green landscapes and a waterway running through the estate. Delegates will be able to explore this innovative urban product during this visit.
The Punggol area used to be a well-established rural district dotted with pig farms. By 1970s, poultry and pig farms were gradually phased out alongside old kampongs and low-rise residential areas, giving way to the high-rise public housing flats when redevelopment commenced. Punggol 21 Plus is a plan to develop Punggol into a waterfront town of the 21st century.
Waterway Terraces As Singapore’s first eco-town, Punggol demonstrates how sustainable development can be achieved through comprehensive town planning and design, adoption of green technologies and active community partnership. Waterway Terraces is one of the key developments that set Punggol apart as a sustainable waterfront town in the tropics. It is located along Punggol Waterway, and conveniently sited near the main facilities and amenities such as MRT & LRT stations, bus interchange and the proposed Town Centre and Sports complex nearby. The development yields a total of 1,876 dwelling units, across 6 residential blocks ranging from 7 to 18 storeys with a skyline cascading towards the waterway. The design concept of the development was inspired by terraced rice fields of South East Asia and the development’s name of “Waterway Terraces” appropriately describes the concept of terracing roof gardens. In addition, the development has incorporated eco-friendly features that capitalised on nature and the use of green technologies.
Punggol Waterway
A central feature of Punggol 21 Plus is the Punggol Waterway. The Waterway runs through the Punggol Waterway Park, and both serve to increase park and water frontage for the housing estates and also provide a green respite for residents. Designed with four themes to cater to residents of all ages, the Park also provides residents opportunities for leisure activities such as jogging and cycling which can be carried out along the promenade at both sides of the Waterway.
An Integrated Transport Network with a Light Rapid Transit System was designed to interface with the Punggol North-East Line Mass Rapid Transit Station and bus interchange, providing excellent intra-and-inter-town accessibility. 09 / SITE VISITS

SINGAPORE RIVER AND MARINA BAY AN ATTRACTIVE & SUSTAINABLE PRECINCT
Home to the world’s first City reservoir and the iconic Gardens by the Bay, the Marina Bay is now an extension of the old Central Business District, and a gem of modern Singapore. The Singapore River, once polluted and unsuitable for human and marine activities, has been transformed into a remarkable scene today. This tour offers an insight into what it took to bring about the urban transformation.
The Singapore River has been at the heart of Singapore’s development since 1819. Historically, the river was a port for shipping and trading activities. It was heavily polluted by shipping activities, residential and industrial discharges, as well as waste from chicken and duck farms that released directly into the river. Before any plans could be developed for this area, the river had to be cleaned up. The task was enormous and took about 10 years from 1977 to 1985. Today, Singapore River has been rejuvenated to become a live, work and play destination and it is now part of the Marina Reservoir after the damming of its outlet to the sea to create a freshwater reservoir. Spanning 350 metres across the Marina Channel, the Marina Barrage is a realization of Singapore’s former Minister Mentor Lee Kuan Yew’s vision 20 years ago. Marrying form and function, this engineering marvel boosts Singapore’s water supply by creating Singapore’s 15th reservoir and its first right in the heart of the city. By blocking out the seawater, the barrage acts as a tidal barrier and alleviates flooding in the low-lying areas of the city. Beyond its water supply and flood control, the barrage is also a popular recreational destination for the public. The freshwater reservoir also serves as the centrepiece in the Marina Bay area, creating a vibrant and distinctive water piazza right in the heart of the city
Marina Barrage
Gardens by the Bay is one of the most highly anticipated developments in Singapore that adds a new dimension to city living. Comprising three waterfront gardens spanning 101 hectares in Marina Bay, it is a premier urban recreational space for all to enjoy. Participants will experience Bay South, the largest of the three gardens that was opened in June 2012. A showpiece of horticulture and garden artistry, Bay South will present the plant kingdom in a whole new way, entertaining while educating visitors with plants seldom seen in this part Gardens by the Bay of the world. Among the highlights in Bay South are the cooled conservatories that will be an exquisite floral depiction of two of the world’s most endangered habitats, as well as Supertrees, which incorporate vertical greenery with environmentally sustainable functions.

HIGHLIGHTS OF THE JUBILEE WALK TRAIL CONNECTING SINGAPORE’S PAST, PRESENT AND FUTURE
The Jubilee Walk trail covers historic and iconic locations within the Civic District and Marina Bay precincts. The tour will take delegates on a route that connects the past, present and future elements of the Singapore story - from Temasek (Singapore’s earliest recorded name) to the colonial era, to nationhood, rapid urban development and beyond. Through this tour, delegates will have a chance to discover the people and communities who have contributed to Singapore’s cityscape and gain insights into how heritage and culture can be integrated into the design of the City, helping to preserve and enhance the identity of these spaces. The Walk begins from the National Museum, situated at the foot of Fort Canning Hill where the 14th century kingdom of Temasek was seated, marking our early beginnings as a trading hub. Originally built to mark Queen Victoria’s Diamond Jubilee in 1887, the Museum galleries were revamped to provide a more comprehensive overview of Singapore’s history and development as a country to commemorate Singapore’s Golden Jubilee. The Walk continues through the Civic District which includes the former and present Parliament House, Empress Place , Esplanade Park and the Padang. Empress Place is home to Victoria Theatre and Concert Hall – two separate buildings built more than 40 years apart and joined by a clock tower. Historically a meeting place and a performance venue, the site served as a hospital during World War II, and was the location for the trial of Japanese war criminals after their surrender. Singapore’s national anthem, “Majulah Singapura” (Malay for “Onward Singapore”), received its premiere here in 1958. As Singapore’s oldest performing arts centre, the Victoria Theatre and Concert Hall reopened its doors to the public in 2015 after a major refurbishment. Situated near the Padang, is Empress Place Park, which holds several important historic monuments. Within the Park is the Queen Elizabeth Walk, once a seafront promenade, named in honour of Queen Elizabeth II’s coronation in 1953. Today, a new icon of Singapore’s cultural vibrancy stands near Esplanade Park – the Esplanade-Theatres on the Bay. In the 19th century, the Padang was a popular leisure hangout and sporting arena by the sea before reclamation works in the 1890s created New Esplanade Road and pushed the waterfront further away. Today, the Padang still serves such a purpose and it is a favourite site for the National Day Parades, The tour concludes with a visit to the Jubilee Bridge, a new pedestrian bridge connecting Merlion Park and the promenade in front of Esplanade-Theatres on the Bay. The Bridge enhances the continuous 3.5-kilometre waterfront loop around Marina Bay. The curved 6-metre wide, 220-metre long bridge will connect to the Esplanade Bridge in the middle, providing an extended viewing platform from which members of the public can view activities within the Bay and enjoy the panoramic sights of the Bay.

SINGAPORE BOTANIC GARDENS SINGAPORE’S GARDEN HERITAGE
Established in 1859 by the Agri-Horticultural Society, the Singapore Botanic Gardens (SBG) is an example of the English Landscape Movement’s design style, with many of its historic buildings such as Burkill Hall (1868), Ridley Hall (1882), EJH Corner House (1910) and Holttum Hall (1921) remaining almost entirely intact till today. In the early years, the Gardens played an important role in fostering agricultural development in the region through collecting, growing, experimenting and distributing potentially useful plants, most notably the Hevea brasiliensis (Pará Rubber) which became a major crop that transformed the region. Since its establishment, the Gardens has continued to be a leading centre for plant science, research and conservation in Southeast Asia. Today, it is recognised internationally as a leading institution of tropical botany and horticulture, and its library and herbarium collections (comprising over 750,000 specimens) serve as an important reference centre for research on the region’s flora for botanists around the world. SBG was and continues to be instrumental in the greening and transformation of Singapore into a Garden City, successfully implementing then-Prime Minister Lee Kuan Yew’s vision and greening programme that started in the 1960s. The gardens provided the expertise, skills and resources needed to implement the vision and continues to contribute through its plant research, education and conservation work. SBG has always been an integral part of Singapore’s social and cultural heritage. Today, SBG is also an important tourist attraction and a much-loved civic space, welcoming over four million visits annually. The Gardens is Singapore’s first UNESCO World Heritage Site. Highlights of this visit includes the Gardens’ majestic Heritage Trees, the iconic Bandstand, and the newly opened Heritage Museum.

SMART GREEN DESIGN
BRINGING SUSTAINABLE LIVING INTO THE COMMUNITY The ‘Smart Green Design’ tour begins at the Ng Teng Fong General Hospital (NTFGH) and Jurong Community Hospital (JCH). Built with environmental sustainability in mind, both hospitals were designed to be as carbon-neutral in infrastructure, water and energy systems, and landscape features. An innovative ward design also allows NTFGH and JCH to provide a window for every patient. This significantly improves ventilation, maximises natural light and provides a conducive, healing environment for both patients. The hospitals are connected to the town centre via sheltered link bridges to the Mass Rapid Transit (MRT) station, bus interchange, business, retail, dining and entertainment facilities for improved connectivity.
In the second leg of the tour, visitors will get to experience GreenPrint at Yuhua, an initiative that aims to bring sustainable living directly into the lives of Singaporeans living in housing estates. Launched in 2012, the initiative transformed 38 HDB apartment blocks with a slew of green features ranging from solar panels and rainwater harvesting systems that promote energy and water conservation to green roofs. The GreenPrint at Yuhua initiative involves the residents and put them in immersive roles for shared ownership of the green initiatives. Moving forward, GreenPrint at Yuhua will be involved in test-bedding smart technologies to further improve its residents’ well-being.

From the ground floor to the highest. Comfort and safety for all. That’s Ingenuity for life. The 127-floor Shanghai Tower is one of the most iconic symbols of growth and prosperity. Ultra high-rise buildings like it create new expectations among the many thousands who work, live and shop in them. Siemens works closely with building operators to integrate intelligent building systems enabling a reliable energy flow as well as advanced safety. This matters because as cities reach for new heights, energy efficiency as well as the safety and comfort of all building occupants, from the ground floor to the top, are essential. That’s Ingenuity for life.
