10. Principles of governance
 Leadership is key
 Work for reward and reward for work
 A stake for everyone and Opportunities for
all
 Anticipating change and staying relevant

11. Relation to MBS
 The MBS has boosted the economy, it is
projected to stimulate an addition of $2.7
billion or 0.8% to Singapore's Gross
Domestic Product by 2015, employing
10,000 people directly and 20,000 jobs
being created in other industries.

12.  This shows the foresight the Singapore
Government had when they thought of
the idea of having a Integrated resort.

13.  Sands' design is superior to other bids in
terms of pedestrian circulation and layout,
and it also fit in with the Marina Bay
landscape best. Hotel towers was set back
from the waterfront to open up expansive
views of the city and the entire Marina
Bay, making the skyline for Singapore's
downtown more attractive and distinctive

14.  Thus, it increases Singapore’s tourism
appeal. This also shows how the
Singapore government is anticipating
change and staying relevant globally by
staying competitive to other countries.

15.  However, the idea was rejected by a
minority of Singaporeans for fear of
gambling addictions and other problems
leading to social unrest. The government
continued with the idea and showed how
they thought for Singapore and not only
doing ideas that were popular among the
people.

16. Thank you!
