Singapore will continue to make waves with the expected completion of phase 1, Gardens by the Bay & International Cruise Terminal in 2H11. The MICE industry should continue to ramp up slowly with expanded facilities at MBS, enabling Singapore to host larger scale, internationally acclaimed events. We forecast tourist arrivals to grow to 13 million in 2011.
