I suspect this author is from across Singapore. Like food, everything also want to argue regardless of the data speak for itself in sg favour be it bkt, char Kay tiao, chicken rice, Kaya toast etc...

Sg in 2019 has discouragenew data centre not that we lack investors but commit to carbon emmsion as data center in oqdt are heavy energy usage. We ask investors to consider nearby jb n batam. Our neighbours need to be grateful. The author need to think why investors chose sg n nearby. Is becos sg has strong pool of talents to support when the investors relocated older data center to jb. Foreign investors have strong confidence in sg and with the new technology direct colling, sg can now afford to expand more at the strong request from investors who have more trust in sg than using new technologies eslsewhere nearby sg. Author need to ask why investors trust sg lite than his own countries
