Despite being one of the smallest countries in the world, the Republic of Singapore stands as a true example of the exceptional infrastructure that every nation aspires to offer its citizens. The country not only ranks No.1 in the world in terms of Technology Infrastructure, but also No.1 in Asia in terms of Urban Mobility, Digital Competitiveness, and ICT Infrastructure. Further, the island nation also boasts of having one of the fastest fixed broadband speed in the world and also hosts over 60 percent of Asia Pacific's data centers.
In terms of other areas too, Singapore has one of the world's best infrastructure in terms of public transportation, healthcare and others, earning it the ninth position in the list of ‘Top 10 Countries to Live’ by UN’s Human Development Report.
While these factors are indeed very much encouraging, carrying out any infrastructure development project successfully in a small region with high population density is extremely challenging and demands niche skills. Among the numerous consulting firms that are currently operational in Singapore, one company that stands-out through its vast industry experience and strong technical expertise is BK Consulting Engineers. Having offices in Singapore and Malaysia, BK Consulting was founded in 1996 by Yeoh Boon Kong, Founder & Principal Engineer, and a seasoned construction and infrastructure development professional with over two decades of experience in planning, design, and project & contract management areas.
