Bolding is mine. Not sure how they could make the place much better than it is (we won't mention lounges...) but kudos for trying.
SINGAPORE: Singapore's Changi Airport will be corporatised by July 2009. It will be split into two entities - a regulatory arm and a new airport company.
The regulatory arm will oversee functions such as air traffic services, air services negotiations, safety, customer service and economic regulations.
The new civil aviation authority will be piloted by Mr Lee Hsien Yang as Chairman.
The airport company will undertake the operational functions of managing Changi Airport, running its emergency services as well as operations and investments in foreign airports. It will be a wholly owned subsidiary of Temasek Holdings.
Mr Liew Mun Leong, chairman of the Civil Aviation Authority of Singapore, will helm the new airport company.
The Transport Ministry said on Tuesday that corporatisation will make Changi Airport more innovative and nimble.
The corporatised entity will have greater wage flexibility to attract and retain talent, which would make Singapore a more competitive air hub.
