Exactly a year to go before the debut of the world's fastest 4-wheelers in Singapore, organisers have confirmed that the Singapore Grand Prix will be Asia's first street race, with an anti-clockwise route around Marina Bay. But still in question is whether Singapore can hold F1's first ever night race. Race promoters gave reporters a top-level update on the work in progress.

STB's F1 Projects Director Leong Yue Kheong on the tweaks to the 5.067km circuit, the logistics and expected turnout.

Singapore GP Deputy Chairman Colin Syn on the technical details of the race.

LTA's Road Construction Director Yap Boon Leong on the eight-month road works.

In his keynote address at the annual Singapore Tripartism Forum, former Manpower Minister Ng Eng Hen - now Education Minister - reflects on the importance of not 'protecting' workers here through a clampdown on the foreign worker quota and a high wage policy. He also elaborates on the way forward for Singapore's workforce.
