It's exclusive of owner-furnished equipment.

According to a release, Cosco referred to its announcement of 28 January 2013 captioned "two shipbuilding contracts become effective" and clarified that the value of US$54 million cited in paragraphs 1 and 3 of the said announcement excludes owner-furnished equipment for the two PX121 Platform Supply Vessels.

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.
