the space in orchard towers comprises offices spread across three units – one occupied by eng wah and the other two leased out . there are plans for a collective sale of orchard towers , which stands on a freehold site in the prime claymore area .

eng wah is prepared to lease back the cinema space in toa payoh and at jubilee theatre in ang mo kio if the buyer offers it at a mutually agreeable rental rate . however , leaseback is not a condition for the sale , mr lui added .

eng wah has recently disposed of other assets , including the former crazy horse cabaret premises and assets , which it sold to club operator st james for $ 2 . 75 million earlier this month , and a condominium unit in kuala lumpur , which was bought by two of mr goh ' s nephews for rm525 , 000 ( s $ 220 , 271 ) last week .

goh was a major figure in the singapore movie industry for over five decades . he started the victory theatre in 1945 , showing mostly a diet of japanese propaganda films , before opening the happy theatre . by the late 1960s he had built up his eng wah theatres organisation into a leading circuit and in the 1980s became a film producer and the leading film distributor in the country .

in a separate announcement , the company said independent director foo kok swee has retired . eng wah has appointed christopher martin george brown , chief executive of private real estate fund develica asia - pacific and former executive chairman of jones lang lasalle asia - pacific , as a new independent director .

the search for buyers has proved controversial . last week , the securities investors association of singapore ( sias ) , which represents retail investors here , called on eng wah to be more transparent in the sale of its properties , asking it to ' ensure that the sale price is maximised ' .

mr didier bernardin , the son of crazy horse founder alain bernardin , said he was impressed by the determination and proactivity of the eng wah team in its bid to bring crazy horse paris to singapore . this professionalism was a major factor in the decision to choose singapore ahead of other asian cities .

disposing of the assets is a key condition for the reverse takeover by transcu . ' if the properties are not sold , the reverse takeover will not take place , ' said eng wah . and if the reverse takeover falls through , ew . g will not buy the properties , it added .

food prices soared and tempers frayed . it’s in conditions like this that air traffic controllers come under pressure and bribes swap hands to move tourists up the waiting list .

in nepal , compensation for families of air - crash victims is limited to $ 20 , 000 ( £13 , 400 ) , an anachronism in modern civil aviation .

“at the same time , with our new network offering sita customers have access to the best suppliers in every corner of the globe , able to offer them the best value , competitiveness , service and capacity . ”

the civil aviation authority of nepal ( caan ) has demoted two airlines to cargo flights and issued shortened air operators certificates ( aoc ) to a few others for violating safety regulations .

the half - hour flight from kathmandu to lukla costs a foreigner $ 127 . seventy per cent of nepal’s domestic air freight also passes through lukla to service the everest trekking industry .

expectations are high . passengers want to be connected in the air the same way they’re connected on the ground . they want the latest and greatest features and apps at an affordable price . that’s the crux . can we make it affordable ?

that’s good news for the fast evolving air transport industry , which by 2030 will see 18 , 000 potential communications users at airports , along with 500 new airports ( a 30 % increase ) , and a 40 % capacity growth in existing airports .

partnership principles were agreed by the sita council in 2016 which allowed us to welcome mindtree , one of our key offshore providers , as a foundation partner . mindtree are currently supporting us with an annual contribution that will help us to expand the scope of our work and to positively impact more young people in africa .

caan’s deputy director general sanjiv gautam said that some carriers were downgraded as they failed to satisfy the regulator with sets of safety standards .

“caan has taken strong corrective action to enforce compliance . it has ordered the downgraded carriers and those that failed to get their aocs fully revalidated to follow the standard practice in accordance with the findings of caan’s audit before applying for passenger service or extending their aocs . ”

on july 16 , caan had granted a temporary reprieve to 16 domestic airlines failing to comply with international safety standards and renewed their aoc for a one - month period under the direct orders of tourism and civil aviation minister bhim prasad acharya .

the carriers have been let off under the condition that they fulfil the safety oversight standards prescribed by caan’s new aoc regulation .

caan needs to send a progress report on major issues pointed out by the ec by september 15 . if they are satisfied with the improvements nepal has made ,
