The
Building and Construction Authority is hoping to make
more inroads for Singapore's construction-linked firms
in India.
Under
a memorandum of cooperation signed on Tuesday, both the
BCA and its Indian counterpart will encourage the sharing
of information on infrastructure projects in Singapore
and India.
They
will also promote networking between the construction
industries which in turn can lead to joint ventures between
firms of both countries.
The
signing of the MoC was witnessed by the Minister of State
for Defence and National Development, Cedric Foo, in New
Delhi.
The
memorandum also aims to develop the human resource skills
of both countries through sharing of experiences and the
adoption of best practices.
The
two agencies will work together to market BCA's rating
standard for buildings, CONQUAS, for adoption by the Indian
construction industry. - CNA
