According to Damien Duhamel, managing partner for Asia Pacific of Solidiance, problems are addressed very soon by the government rather than being ignored and pushed aside.

Cities of India and China were pushed to lower ranks despite India and China being fast growing economies.

Solidiance, reports that the Singapore is still conserved with its cultural ideas, and needs to open up to global cultures.
