Singapore
SURBANA Jurong on Tuesday clarified that its involvement in converting the Singapore Expo venue into a community care facility (CCF) was due to a call for specialist support from Temasek Holdings, which wholly owns the urban and infrastructure consultancy.
The company was responding to social media posts that it said had "unfairly subjected" it to "unfounded accusations of profiteering and corruption". The company asserted that the allegations were not true, adding that it continues to provide its expertise for such Covid-19 projects on a "cost-recovery basis".
