This is in addition to the $1b contract clinched last April for the design and construction of the first Polar Security Cutter for the US Navy. The agreement includes options for two more vessels, which when exercised would bring the total contract value for the three vessels to about $2.6b.

The aerospace sector accounted for $809m of these contracts, involving services such as airframe and engine MRO services and support. The deals include multi-year agreements to provide heavy maintenance services to their entire fleet of Boeing 717s, AirAsiaX Berhad and Beibu Gulf Airlines, as well as a number of agreements for engine maintenance.

Meanwhile, the group’s electronics sector received new orders globally worth $702m for smart mobility, satellite communications, Internet of Things (IoT), cybersecurity, public safety and security, and defence.

It mentioned that its ‘key new win’ by its smart mobility business was for the provision of rail electronics solutions, including train-borne communications, platform screen doors (PSD), automatic fare collection (AFC) and supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) systems to Taiwan’s Taoyuan MRT Green Line. The business also delivered a maintenance management system to China’s Foshan Metro Line 2 and Gaoming District Tram.

In Singapore, contracts were secured for the installation of smart indoor lighting control solutions in residential estates and carparks. The sector also inked a deal with PSA to develop an advanced command centre that enables digitalisation, automation and intelligent decision-making for Tuas port operations.

Furthermore, its training and simulation business received a contract worth $1.3b (US$95m) from the US Army to develop and deliver a unified simulation platform for its synthetic training environment.

A report by OCBC Investment Research (OIR) last June revealed that amongst the group’s $14.1b-worth of contracts nabbed as at end-March, around $4.2b is expected to be delivered in 9M 2019.

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.
