Raises current order book to S$1.02b.

Mainboard-listed BBR Holdings (S) Ltd (BBR) announced through a release that it has won S$61.6 million worth of new contracts between November 2012 and January 2013. These include a contract for the construction of the prestigious Dulwich College in Singapore and a number of structural work and specialist engineering contracts in Singapore and Malaysia.

The contract for Dulwich College, Singapore’s first British independent school was awarded to BBR’s wholly owned subsidiary, Singa Development Pte Ltd. The scope of work includes building of three-storey, five-storey and single-storey blocks with two basements and a two-storey administration block. The work will begin immediately and is scheduled to complete by the end of May 2014. Built on a fivehectare site in Bukit Batok West Avenue 8, the project will include building classrooms and facilities for children in early/foundation years and junior school, a gymnasium and a swimming pool. Catering mainly to the expatriate community, the 394-year-old Dulwich College has campus in Beijing, Shanghai, Suzhou and Seoul.

It will start with an initial intake of 400 to 500 students and expects to expand to 2,500 students over the next few years.

In addition, BBR has been awarded several structural work and specialist engineering contracts in Singapore and Malaysia. These included a hospital, light industrial flatted factories, warehouses, bridges, service apartments and a shopping mall.

BBR’s Chief Executive Officer, Mr Andrew Tan said: “We are pleased to have been awarded these contracts over the past few months as this affirms our position as one of Singapore’s leading construction companies with specialist engineering skills and experience. With these recent wins, we are pleased to announce that our order book now stands at S$1.02 billion with projects lasting to 2015. We will continue to focus on bidding for more projects in the public and private sectors especially in Singapore and Malaysia to strengthen and grow our business.”

The above S$61.6 million worth of new contracts secured are in addition to the two HDB contracts to build 808 flats at Kallang Whampoa for S$108 million and 474 flats at Sengkang Neighbourhood 2 for S$74.9 million, which were announced on 19 December 2012.

You're the reader we write for. You're also the person our partners want to reach.

If that sentence describes you — a founder, a C-suite, someone whose attention companies pay good money for — then you already understand why SBR works. We've spent twenty years earning the trust of readers exactly like you. Which is exactly what makes this an interesting place for your company to show up, too.

The ways it can show up are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The right fit depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.

If your company has something this audience should know about, we'd like to hear what you're working on.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.

30 One-Sentence Stories From People Who Have Built Better Habits

None of these stories are mine. They were sent to me by readers of Atomic Habits. My hope is that these examples will illustrate how real people are putting the book into practice. They will show you what people are actually doing to build good habits and break bad ones. And hopefully, they will spark some ideas for how you can do the same.

SBR 5 Lorem Ipsum News 2 [8 May]

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
