    SINGAPORE Telecommunications (Singtel) announced on Monday its support for the National Gallery Singapore in a partnership that will see a S$20 million contribution from the telco - one of the largest corporate endowments the Gallery has received. Singtel joins DBS, UOB and Keppel Corporation as the gallery's main corporate sponsors.

    As a result of the latest contribution, the museum dedicated three spaces from the old City Hall building - totalling about 20,000 square feet - as the Singtel Special Exhibition Gallery. Special exhibitions are set to be twice-yearly shows with the first one slated to open in April 2016; the museum itself is to open in October this year.
