And SGX faces three big risks. From PropertyGuru via Yahoo!: Singapore has been named among 10 cities in Asia Pacific implementing big plans to improve urban mobility, according to a report launched by the Urban Land Institute (ULI) and Centre for Liveable Cities (CLC). The other cities on the list are Seoul, Shanghai, Suwon, Taipei, Tokyo, Bandung, Ho Chi Minh City, Sydney and Yangon.
