    TO showcase Australia's capabilities in the built environment field and highlight how Australian companies and organisations can - and are currently - partnering with countries in the region to support Asean's unfolding urbanisation story, the Australian government organised a Regional Built Environment Forum in Singapore on June 3 and June 4.

    The event successfully brought together more than 200 representatives from Australian, Singapore and multinational built environment companies, both governments, NGOs and officials from Asean cities to promote Australia's built environment capability, partnerships, investments and commercial opportunities in the nearly 650 million people-strong Asean region.

    Singapore's Building and Construction Authority (BCA) and Infocomm Media Development Authority (IMDA) were supporting agencies. Sim Ann, Senior Minister of State for the Ministry of Communications and Information and Ministry of Culture, Community and Youth, was the guest of honour.
