But other industry watchers point out obstacles to the brokerage's proposals, which range from the much-discussed merger of the offshore and marine businesses of Keppel Corp and Sembcorp Marine; to the potential spin-off of data centres from Singtel and Temasek unit ST Telemedia; mergers of property titans, CapitaLand with Mapletree Investments or Keppel Land; the consolidation of Reits under Temasek-linked sponsors; and the potential privatisation of SIA Engineering (SIAEC).
