Bishan-Toa Payoh town council gets amber rating for corporate governance

It is the only town council that failed to achieve a green rating.

According to the Ministry of National Development’s (MND) estate management report, the Bishan-Toa Payoh town council (BTPTC) has failed to achieve a top green rating for corporate governance (CG).

BTPTC has failed to obtain ministerial approval before commencing works on non-common property and disbursing funds for three projects.

Out of all the 17 town councils, BTPTC is the only town council to fail the top rating. The town council was rated “amber" after it scored 1 point for its CG scoring.

“As there were multiple occurrences of the same type of non-compliance, this was considered a medium severity observation,” MND said.

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.
