YPG is excited to hold the second experience-sharing session for the “Urban Planning through a Global Lens” series, where planners are invited to share their global encounters and inspiration with us!

We are delighted to invite you to a captivating sharing session that will shed light on the latest urban planning trends and challenges faced by two vibrant cities: Hong Kong and Singapore. Two young planners, Ms. Samantha Chuang and Mr. Ryan Chan, will share their insights during the delegation trip of the HKIP and the Hong Kong Institute of Surveyors to attend the award presentation ceremony of Singapore Institute of Planners (SIP) Planning Awards 2023 - Joint Award by SIP & HKIP for Excellence in Planning.

During the trip, the delegation had the privilege of visiting several notable organisations of public and private sectors in Singapore, including the Urban Redevelopment Authority (URA) and the Singapore office of AECOM and Colliers. Additionally, the HKIP delegation was engaged in discussions with Dr. Liu Thai Ker, who is hailed as the “Father of Urban Planning of Singapore”, and the SIP, where they gained valuable insights into impressive planning strategies, initiatives and projects in Singapore.

In this event, the speakers will be sharing on the topic “Planning for Evolving Needs and Common Challenges in Hong Kong and Singapore”, with a focus on planning for post-pandemic flexibility, environmental resilience, the blend of old and new, as well as integrated economic and physical planning.
