This is Singapore’s Pan Pacific Orchard, which has just been named the world’s best new tall building by the Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat (CTBUH). Video Ad Feedback Watch: Take a look inside Pan Pacific Orchard. In some areas, Singapore’s strict building codes even require property developers to include large amounts of greenery when constructing new towers. Combined, the green spaces at Pan Pacific Orchard amount to around three times more than this legal minimum. “Pan Pacific Orchard represents the best in responsible vertical urbanism today,” said CTBUH’s CEO, Javier Quintana de Uña, in a statement.

REUTERS/Edgar SuSINGAPORE, April 27 (Reuters) - Vera Liu, a Singapore property agent, was panicking in the wee hours of Thursday morning after new property taxes saw two of her deals fall through. Policymakers are growing concerned that foreign investors increasingly see Singapore property as a hot asset class, squeezing out locals. Christine Sun, the senior vice president of research & analytics at OrangeTee & Tie, called it a "freezing measure" for foreign buyers.

"There's little impact on the other 90%," said Mak, who has been analysing Singapore property for more than two decades.
