WHAT does it take to become a world-class city?

Innovative planning projects, policies and solutions that show foresight and good governance, it seems.

These are the qualities that Singapore is looking for in a new award it is launching: the Lee Kuan Yew World City Prize.

Speaking at the annual Asia Society conference in Ho Chi Minh City, National Development Minister Mah Bow Tan said on Friday that the biennial award seeks to recognise individuals and organisations that have made outstanding contributions to the creation of vibrant, liveable and sustainable cities.

'Through this prize, we hope to facilitate the sharing of best practices in urban solutions and spur further innovation in the area of sustainable urban development and city excellence,' said Mr Mah.

Nominations will commence in June when the Prize is formally launched at the Lee Kuan Yew Water Prize Awards Ceremony, he added.

Because these worthless Sporn fucks are of low caliber (not good enough) to meet with the high elite standards here. Being second and third-rate overseas, is their way out to escape competition and breathe easier.

I hope they all die overseas and the pilots who fly their planes out would perform nauseating acrobatic stunts into the seas ~

Like the Italians say: Let them all swim to the bottom of the ocean.

PS Though I am now in Canada but it is only on a temporary basis and I have never forgotten this land that gave me so many things, including those fond memories of my childhood, school and the jc life (prom night being exceptionally unforgettable).
