    OPPORTUNITIES have opened up for CapitaLand - following its merger with Ascendas-Singbridge (ASB) - to scale up in key city clusters in China and to widen its range of asset classes there, thus giving it a competitive advantage over other players.

    Lee Chee Koon, CapitaLand's group chief executive, declared to The Business Times in an interview: "China will remain a key market for CapitaLand, and be the single largest market for CapitaLand."
