MORE government offices are moving out of their city centre locations, becoming more dispersed as a result.

But this move, by agencies that do not need to remain in the Central Business District, frees up prime office space for the private sector.

The Infocomm Development Authority of Singapore, whose offices are in Suntec City and Hill Street, will move to Pasir Panjang next year.Going to Bendemeer in 2012 is the Manpower Ministry's foreign manpower division, now in Kim Seng Road.

Yes. That what I heard also. The gov office will slowly shift out from city centre.

We need more malls. The more the better.

We already got plenty of Gov't. You can see them on our golf courses, sleeping in parliament, flying to who knows where.
