MOM appoints operators for two recreation centres

The ministry made the call for proposals in June.

The Ministry of Manpower (MOM) has appointed two new operators to run Kaki Bukit Recreation Centre (KBRC) and Woodlands Recreation Centre (WRC) as part of ongoing efforts to improve the diversity and quality of offerings to support the social and recreational needs of migrant workers in Singapore.

Following a Call for Proposal launched in June 2025, MOM has appointed the consortium of Hope Initiative Alliance and Advancer IFM Pte Ltd to operate KBRC from 1 January 2026, while the Dormitory Association of Singapore Limited (DASL) will operate WRC from 1 April 2026.

The appointment of both operators will be valid for three years.

The two were selected to operate KBRC and WRC, respectively, based on their experience with migrant worker initiatives, operational expertise and alignment with MOM’s priorities.

Both operators’ diverse programming, attractive offerings and plans to collaborate with non-governmental organisations and community partners support MOM’s objective of enhancing the appeal of RCs as vibrant spaces for engagement whilst meeting workers’ social and recreational needs.

By partnering with experienced organisations like HIA and DASL, we have made good strides in better meeting the needs of migrant workers through new ideas and networks of partners. Together, we aim to provide diverse programmes and attractive offerings that make our RCs venues of choice for migrant workers and enhance their overall well-being,” said Mr Dinesh Vasu Dash, Minister of State for Manpower

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
