Marina Bay Sands Construction

A delay in the opening of the Marina Bay Sands.

This post is in relation to my previous post on

'Singapore's Changing Skyline'.

Every morning on my way to Shenton Way,

I will pass this scene and I have always thought to

myself how beautiful it will look when completed.

BUT..

I was sadden to hear of the delay.

A report on Channel NewsAsia on 10th July 2009.

'Delay in opening of Marina Bay Sands could potentially mean big losses'.

See what goes on behind those screens...

Thanks to ckuruz from YouTube for this marvelous clip.

We now have an idea of the magnitude of this project.

See the construction.

The dedication and hard work put in to make the

Marina Bay Sands.
