Editorial Turning vision to reality They could only imagine the waterfront lifestyle promised as they put their money down for homes marked out on blue prints. But their confidence was anchored on the Keppel brand and vision for a world-class waterfront precinct. Today, homeowners of Caribbean at Keppel Bay enjoy open vistas not only to spectacular views of the Marina and surrounds but also to a new waterfront lifestyle right at their doorsteps. We see the same confidence in Keppel demonstrated by home buyers of Reflections at Keppel Bay with some 620 units launched successfully taken up. Bit by bit, the pieces of the jigsaw that is Keppel Bay are quickly moving into place. The commitment to distinguish this Keppel flagship development, from management down to teams and individuals working on different components at Keppel Bay these few years, has been unwavering. to the world-class quality that is to define Keppel Bay. For the success of Keppel Bay, it takes the collective will and effort of the whole Group. Indeed, Keppel Bay has demonstrated our synergy and strengths. We leverage networks, create cross-selling opportunities, uphold quality standards and execute with excellence a world-class product. Not surprisingly, our vision for Keppel Bay has also attracted fine names and brands to come alongside to lend their signature for a premier waterfront lifestyle experience. For Keppel, it does not stop at delivery. Even after we had handed over the keys to the home owners of Caribbean at Keppel Bay, we carry on the work of adding value to Keppel Bay. This value creation process has to be continuous as there can be no compromise on quality until we turn vision to reality. This is, after all, the Keppel showcase of excellence. It is the model of Keppel’s capability in developing premium quality homes and creating value to enhance lifestyles of its home owners, whether here or around the world. In a few short years, the southern waterfront will be one of Singapore’s most vibrant hubs for living and leisure. And Keppelites can be very proud that Keppel Bay is the shining beacon that beckons the world to our nation. The transformation of an old shipyard into one of Singapore’s most valuable prime real estates takes a steadfast vision of the big picture as well as pinpoint focus into every detail which contributes Keppelite I January 2008
