SINGAPORE: Roxy Square in Katong has been put up for collective sale at a minimum price of S$1.25 billion (US$0.93 billion), marketing agent JLL said on Wednesday (Jul 24).

Roxy Square is a freehold mixed-use development, comprising Roxy Square Shopping Centre and Grand Mercure Roxy Hotel.

The minimum price translates to about S$2,094 per square foot per plot ratio and is inclusive of a land betterment charge. Developers pay this charge so they can enhance the use of some sites.

More than 80 per cent of the owners have consented to the collective sale at the minimum price, JLL said.

Roxy Square was built in three phases from the early 1980s to 2000 and comprises 296 shops, 26 apartments and a hotel with 576 rooms.

The site has a gross floor area of about 668,000 sq ft.

Under the 2019 Master Plan by the Urban Redevelopment Authority (URA), the site is partially zoned for commercial and residential use along East Coast Road. It is also partially zoned as a hotel, fronting Marine Parade Road.

"Based on recent planning advice from the URA, the entire Roxy Square site may be rezoned into commercial and residential (use) and be redeveloped into a high-rise mixed development comprising residential, commercial, and/or hotel components," said JLL.

The site can also be redeveloped to allow for sea views towards the south and unblocked views over shophouses, low-rise mixed-use buildings and landed residential estates towards the north.

Subject to approval, JLL said a developer could potentially create a mixed-use development with more than 350 residential units and about 80,000 sq ft of retail and food and beverage space.

The remaining area can be set aside for office, hotel or other commercial uses.

The site is also directly in front of the newly opened Marine Parade MRT station on the Thomson-East Coast Line. 

" There is also a provision for a knock-out-panel at the MRT station which will allow the future development to have a direct connection to the station concourse level, linking it to the underground pedestrian network with a new array of shops," said JLL.

The site is also close to shopping malls such as Parkway Parade, i12 Katong and Katong V. Nearby schools include Tao Nan, CHIJ (Katong) Primary, Haig Girls' School and Tanjong Katong Primary School.

Executive director for capital markets at JLL Singapore Tan Hong Boon anticipates "significant interest" in the site. 

"We have observed an increasing popularity with home buyers in recent years of mixed residential and commercial developments. 

"In the Katong area, there are currently no comparable mixed-used sites to Roxy Square available for redevelopment, not to mention a freehold one," Mr Tan said.

The tender for Roxy Square closes at 3pm on Sep 26.

Income will continue with affordable insurance after stake sale to Allianz: NTUC Enterprise

SINGAPORE – NTUC Enterprise will continue to back Income Insurance and keep it on track to serve its social objectives even after the sale of a large stake to German insurer Allianz, said its chairman Lim Boon Heng.

Income will continue to provide affordable and accessible insurance options to the underserved and lower-income customers through products such as the LUV and SilverCare policies, he said in a statement on July 25.

He added that Income will continue to participate in national insurance programmes in partnership with the Central Provident Fund Board, and Income products will be priced “very competitively”.

“NTUC Enterprise will also continue as an active shareholder of Income Insurance to keep it to its purpose and deliver social commitments to its policyholders,” he said.

He added that Allianz, a global player, was roped in to help Income better compete.

“Income Insurance’s life insurance market share has been less than 10 per cent in the past 10 years. Allianz’s offer to be a majority shareholder will enable Income Insurance to be even more relevant and resilient over the long term, to serve families in Singapore and fulfil its obligations to its policyholders,” Mr Lim said.

The labour movement here has provided Income with capital for its business over the years, he said.

An example would be the capital injection by NTUC Enterprise in 2020 to support Income’s solvency at the peak of the pandemic, when its capital buffers came under pressure.

“Insurance is a capital-intensive business and to grow, there is a need to tap the capital markets. The strength of Allianz’s financial position will provide additional support to Income Insurance where required,” he said.

In a separate statement, Income said that NTUC Enterprise, as a substantial shareholder following the close of the deal, will remain firmly committed to Income and its stakeholders, including policyholders and shareholders.

Income stressed that even with Allianz as a majority shareholder, it would continue with ongoing commitments, including social ones, as stated in the pre-conditional offer announcement on July 17.

What this means is that Allianz will continue to participate in national insurance programmes, invest in the Singapore community, recognise the union and uphold the principles of good labour management relations.

It also means Allianz will carry out the existing pledge of investing $100 million over 10 years from 2021 to promote social mobility among the low-income, support the well-being of seniors and champion environmental causes.

Minority shareholders of Income who accept the Allianz offer will be given priority to tender their shares and receive $40.58 per share.

Shareholders are not required to take any action now as the offer is subject to regulatory approval.

A spokesman for the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) said: “When assessing a potential shareholder of a licensed insurer, MAS’ assessment would include considering the track record, financial soundness, reputation, fitness and propriety of the proposed shareholder, and whether the risk management systems and processes put in place are commensurate with the size and complexity of the business undertaken by the licensed entity.”

When launched, the offer will be open for acceptance for a stipulated period, Income said, adding that the closing of the offer is expected to be in the fourth quarter of 2024 or the first quarter of 2025.

The statements by the insurer and NTUC Enterprise come amid concerns among some Singaporeans about whether the sale of a majority stake in Income would eventually lead to a dilution of its social purpose and result in higher premiums.

In a Facebook post on July 23, Ambassador-at-Large Tommy Koh said: “I don’t think it is a good idea to sell Income. It was founded to serve a social purpose and a social need. They remain valid today. I wish to argue that Income and FairPrice should never be sold.”

FairPrice is the largest supermarket chain in Singapore and a cooperative of NTUC.

Mr Tan Suee Chieh, who served as chief executive officer (CEO) of NTUC Income from 2007 to September 2013, told The Straits Times that Income had aimed to maximise the social impact and value for its policyholders.

“We wanted to have as much reach to Singaporeans, not to maximise profits, but to maximise social impact.”

He was referring to Allianz CEO Oliver Baete’s comments in an interview that the German insurer was in Asia to build “a resoundingly profitable business”. 

Credit ratings agency Fitch had earlier said Income would benefit from Allianz’s global expertise and the potential synergies, while other industry observers had highlighted how Income would be able to strengthen its position in the insurance space and in the region.

The issue is expected to be discussed when Parliament next sits from Aug 6.

MP Liang Eng Hwa and Non-Constituency MP Leong Mun Wai said they have filed parliamentary questions over the Allianz offer.

Mr Liang, who is chairman of the Government Parliamentary Committee for Finance, Trade and Industry, told ST he is asking whether the stake sale will have an impact on the affordability of essential insurance products to mass consumers, and whether there is social value for NTUC Enterprise to retain its controlling stake in Income.

Mr Leong said in a Facebook post that he will ask how the Government will continue to support the cooperative movement in providing Singaporeans with affordable essential goods and services in the future.

Oil tankers on fire after colliding close to Singapore, crew rescued

SINGAPORE — Two large oil tankers were on fire on Friday after colliding near Singapore , the world’s biggest refuelling port, with two crew members airlifted to hospital and others rescued from life rafts, authorities and one of the tanker owners said.

Singapore is Asia’s biggest oil trading hub and the world’s largest bunkering port. Its surrounding waters are vital trade waterways between Asia and Europe and the Middle East and among the busiest global sea lanes .

The Singapore-flagged tanker Hafnia Nile and the Sao Tome and Principe-flagged tanker Ceres I were about 55 km (34 miles) northeast of the Singaporean island of Pedra Branca on the eastern approach to the Singapore Straits, the Maritime and Port Authority of Singapore (MPA) said.

The 22 crew of the Hafnia Nile and the 40 on the Ceres I were all accounted for, the MPA said, which was alerted to the fire at 6:15 a.m. (2215 GMT)

The owner of Hafnia Nile confirmed the vessel was involved in a collision with Chinese owned Ceres I.

Photographs released by the Singapore Navy showed thick black smoke billowing from one tanker and crew being rescued from life rafts and flown to hospital.

The environmental authorities in neighbouring Malaysia said they had been told to prepare for potential oil spills .

Norway’s Gard, one of Hafnia Nile’s insurers, told Reuters it was too early to assess the environmental impact.

“We are supporting our member as they are dealing with the incident,” Gard said.

Navigational traffic had not been affected, although the status of the vessels or any pollution was unknown at present, a spokesperson at the UN’s International Maritime Organization (IMO) said.

“No aerial surveillance has been conducted so far,” the spokesperson said.

“Salvage and fire-fighting assets have been arranged by both vessel owners to support the fire-fighting efforts and subsequent towage of the vessels to safety.”

The IMO spokesperson said a salvage team had been appointed and was en route to the area.

The 74,000 deadweight-tons capacity panamax tanker Hafnia Nile was carrying about 300,000 barrels of naphtha, according to ship-tracking data from Kpler and LSEG.

The Ceres I is a very large crude carrier supertanker, which ship-tracking data last showed was carrying around 2 million barrels of Iranian crude.

“The Ceres I has been a boat that has gone dark many times over the years,” said Matt Stanley, head of market engagement EMEA & APAC with Kpler, referring to when vessels switch off their AIS tracking transponders.

Stanley said the last AIS signal the vessel transmitted around March indicated it was carrying Iranian crude, which the U.S. has tried to curtail, including imposing sanctions on ports, vessels and refineries involved in the trade.

“She was at anchorage (on Friday). We can be fairly sure that she was carrying Iranian crude and was going to China,” Stanley said.

Shadow fleet risks

S&P Global said in an April report that China buys around 90% of Iran’s crude exports, often at discounted prices.

The Ceres I has not moved since July 11, according to LSEG shipping data.

The area Ceres I is anchored in is known to be used by so-called dark fleet ships for the transfer of Iranian oil in contravention of U.S. sanctions, said Michelle Wiese Bockmann, principal analyst at Lloyd’s List Intelligence.

“The Ceres I has repeatedly been involved in transferring or shipping Iranian oil in breach of U.S. sanctions,” she said.

Shipping sources have said the tanker was also involved in transporting Venezuelan oil, which is also under U.S. sanctions, to China in recent years.

The China-based owner of the Ceres I could not immediately be reached for comment. China has repeatedly said it is opposed to unilateral sanctions.

Up to 850 oil tankers are estimated to operate the shadow fleet transporting oil from countries such as Iran and Venezuela as well as Russia, which has multiple restrictions on its oil exports.

Shipping industry officials have  warned  that safety issues are growing because of the ageing and unregulated vessels.

The Ceres I vessel was built in 2001 while the Hafnia Nile was built in 2017, shipping data showed. It was unclear who provided insurance for the Ceres I, which was not covered by top tier providers like Gard, according to other data.

Why did a humpback whale capsize a boat? Here's what really happened.

Experts explain why the incident depicted in a viral video was an accident caused by natural feeding behaviors.

When an 80,000-pound humpback whale rockets out of the depths, not much can stand in its way.  

Brothers Wyatt and Colin Yager recently witnessed evidence of this off the coast of Odiorne Point in Rye, New Hampshire. They captured the shocking moment a humpback breached and then landed on the back side of a small nearby boat, capsizing the vessel. While the two people aboard were thrown into the water, neither the people nor the whale appeared to suffer any injuries.

Given that a group of orcas have been recently documented ramming and capsizing vessels off the coast of the Iberian Peninsula, the humpback incident has left some online jokingly wondering if the whales aren’t rising up in revolt.

  ( Why are orcas ramming boats? They might just be bored teenagers .)

Alisa Schulman-Janiger , a marine biologist and lead research biologist for the California Killer Whale Project, assures us that’s not the case. “This was an accident,” she says. “The whale did not attack the boat.”

It was “a collision between a whale 100 percent focused on feeding, and a fishing boat dead in the water (not making any noise),” she says. “In the video, you can see schooling fish jumping out of the water, and out of the whale's expanded mouth.”

Why do humpbacks breach?

Humpback whales typically feed on small crustaceans, known as krill , as well as   entire schools of fish ,   such as   anchovies, cod, sand lance, and capelin. To catch fish, the marine mammals sometimes herd their prey to the surface by releasing strategic curtains of bubbles that trick the fish into believing they’re trapped and have no choice but to go up.

Then, the humpbacks shoot up to the surface with their mouths open, swallowing up schools of fish in a single gulp.

In this case, Schulman-Janiger says the humpback in question had been observed feeding on Atlantic menhaden for several days in the Piscataqua River between Maine and New Hampshire—an unusual occurrence for that area, she notes.

The Coast Guard was apparently aware of the whale, the only one of its kind in the area, and had even issued notices to mariners so that they could watch out for it, according to Dianna Schulte , co-founder and director of research for the Blue Ocean Society for Marine Conservation.

All of that said, Schulman-Janiger says the boat operators appear to have done nothing wrong. Their engine was off, and they were not trying to interact with the whale.  

In areas where baitfish (small, fast-breeding species) are concentrated, “humpback whales will gladly take advantage of the easy meal and may have little regard for what is on the surface, including boats,” according to a Facebook post from the New England/Mid-Atlantic department of NOAA Fisheries, “When feeding, humpback whales can be unpredictable and active at the surface.”

How to stay safe around whales

Fortunately, even landing on a human vessel wasn’t enough to deter the humpback from feasting. Schulman-Janiger notes that reports from the scene suggested that after the encounter, the whale continued to feed for another four hours.

At the same time, NOAA advises fishers not to cast lines or troll in areas near humpbacks or visible bubble netting activity . If a bubble cloud appears while you are already fishing, the agency recommends trying to remove your lines or gear, carefully, if possible.

According to NOAA, boats should slow to 10 knots in whale hotspots to prevent collisions, allowing for both you and the whale time to react.

“A collision with a vessel or entanglement in fishing lines can cause serious injuries to the whale and sometimes be fatal. Collisions with whales have also thrown boaters from vessels and caused serious injuries and even death to people.”
