Dr Amy Khor, Honorary Advisor of the SISV Valuation and General Practice (VGP) Division, shared her perspectives on where capital can make the greatest impact in ASEAN’s energy transition at The Business Times’ Sustainability Impact Dialogue in Bangkok.

She highlighted three key areas for investment: renewable energy and grids, low-carbon transport and mobility infrastructure, and energy-efficient industrial and digital infrastructure. She also emphasised that the costs of the transition should be shared across producers, consumers, financiers and governments — with each playing a different role in enabling a sustainable and resilient transition.

To commemorate The Business Times’ 50th anniversary, Dr Amy Khor, Honorary Advisor of Singapore Institute of Surveyors and Valuers - SISV - VGP Division and Kah Poh Tay, First Vice President, co-authored an insightful article examining how Singapore’s real estate sector has shaped economic prosperity, environmental stewardship and social well-being over the past six decades.

The co-authors chronicle the evolution of Singapore’s real estate sector from its beginnings in the 1960s as a “nation builder”, to a “development catalyst” that transformed our economy, and subsequently a “wealth creator” for households and commercial real estate investors.

Since the 2000s, the sector has become increasingly sophisticated and responsive to changing demographics and societal needs. Sustainability has become a greater consideration, while concepts such as human-centric real estate, smart data, climate resilience and regenerative real estate are reshaping the way we think about the built environment.

This evolution also means that property professionals will have to up their game and continually evolve. Beyond traditional real estate knowledge, we will need to develop the skills and methodologies to assess how intelligence, sustainability, climate resilience, adaptability and human-centred design influence an asset’s income, risk, obsolescence, investment performance and ultimately its value. Both authors aptly concluded that “Real estate will remain at the heart of that transformation” as we shape the future of the real estate industry.
