6 04 2013 Image
New Delhi: On Friday Singapore Tourism Board,  launched a customized and differentiated marketing campaign for India at national capital New Delhi. Focusing on Singapore’s emergence as a “city in a garden” the campaign encapsulates the spotlight on its latest attraction, the acclaimed Gardens by the Bay, a park spanning 250 acres of reclaimed land in central Singapore, dominated by giant 25 metres to 50 metres tree-like structures that dominate the landscape.
“Gardens by the Bay are one of the latest attractions adding to our city’s evolving landscape. We believe that the experiences offered in Singapore will continue to resonate strongly with the Indian travelers and draw them for repeated trips to Singapore,” said Chang Chee Pey, Executive Director, South Asia, Middle East and Africa, Singapore Tourism Board.
The campaign says it recognises the Indian traveler shift in preference, from sightseeing trips to engaging holidays that offer enriching experiences, allowing them to acquire new skills and knowledge while connecting with loved ones.“Back in 2005 we had actually launched a very ambitious tourism master plan, where we aimed to double our tourist arrivals from 8 million to 17 million visitors and to triple our tourism receipts from 10 billion Singapore dollars to 30 billion Singapore dollars.
“Some fruits of our labour for the grand master plan have starting to show. India is the 5th largest in the context of tourist arrival in the country and the highest spender,” said Chang Chee Pey, Executive Director, South Asia, Middle East and Africa, Singapore Tourism Board.
Singapore Tourism Board to collaborate with stakeholders to curate resonant experiences for the India market. “We have integrated major projects like casinos, the world’s first Formula One night race and of course our key project Garden by the Bay to attract visitors,” said Pey.
These  Gardens by the Bay span over 101 hectares of prime land at the heart of Singapore’s new downtown — Marina Bay. The Garden comprises of three waterfront gardens: Bay South, Bay East and Bay Central.
“Gardens by the Bay offer journeys into diverse botanical worlds, right on the equator. From the best of Singapore flora, to the cloud forest of tropical highlands, to the colorful blooms of Mediterranean-type climatic regions, visitors can now take a ‘botanical holiday’ and enjoy the natural wonders of faraway realms all in one place.
Gardens brings the world of plants to Singapore, and in doing so, presents Singapore to the world,” said Dr Kiat W Tan, Chief Executive Officer, Gardens by the Bay.
