UPDATED May 15, 2025, 12:14 PM
SINGAPORE &ndash Prime Minister Lawrence Wong has broken ground on Changi Airport Terminal 5 (T5), an expansion project more than a decade in the making that will position the airport to ride an expected surge in air travel within the Asia-Pacific and beyond. With the May 14 ground-breaking, work on the mega terminal has begun, following delays owing to the Covid-19 pandemic. National carrier Singapore Airlines (SIA) and its budget arm Scoot will consolidate their operations under one roof at T5 when the terminal opens in the mid-2030s, said operator Changi Airport Group (CAG). The airlines now operate across Terminals 1, 2 and 3, and SIA Group said the consolidation at T5 will provide space for its future growth and improve &ldquo operational synergies&rdquo . There will be room at T5 and other terminals for other carriers to expand their operations, CAG added. When asked about the other airlines that could operate from T5, CAG said it was too early to tell, as flight operations are dynamic and can change over the next decade. Designed to handle about 50 million passengers a year, T5 will effectively double the size of Changi Airport and allow it to handle 140 million passengers yearly &ndash boosting its current capacity of 90 million by more than 55 per cent. Passenger traffic in the Asia-Pacific &ndash already the world&rsquo s largest air travel market, taking about a third of the global share &ndash is projected to double in the 2040s.
CAG said the extra capacity at T5 will enable Singapore to take advantage of this growth. While prize-winning Changi Airport is a source of pride for many Singaporeans, PM Wong said Singapore can never be complacent about its achievements and &ldquo cannot presume that our success can continue just on its own&rdquo . Amid sharpening competition from other airports and an uncertain global economy, the Prime Minister said Singapore must continue to work hard and remain connected to the world. Hence, it is making a &ldquo bold move&rdquo with T5&rsquo s development to ensure Singapore&rsquo s air hub stays competitive. At present, Changi Airport is linked to more than 170 cities. With T5, the airport will be able to reach its target of more than 200 city links by the mid-2030s, said PM Wong. Construction on T5 will intensify in the next few years and peak around 2029, said Mr Ong Chee Chiau, CAG&rsquo s managing director for Changi East. Works completed so far include a new runway, the airport&rsquo s third an underpass for vehicular traffic and tunnels for baggage and automated people-mover systems similar to the Skytrain. With three runways operational by the time T5 opens, a second control tower will be built to manage air traffic, Mr Ong said.
T5 is located within the 1,080ha Changi East development, which is almost as big as the land area of today&rsquo s Changi Airport, he added. In a first for the airport, T5 will house a ground transport centre, bringing together the Thomson-East Coast and Cross Island MRT lines, buses, taxis and other transport services. State-of-the-art systemsT5 will have overlapping curved roofs with varying heights, in a nod to &ldquo Singapore&rsquo s unique blend of nature and city&rdquo , said CAG. It will also have natural light and landscaping, giving the terminal &ldquo the familiar cosy yet uplifting feel that Changi is known for&rdquo . Besides its facade and interior, the mega terminal will have state-of-the-art systems, and will leverage technology and automation to improve efficiency and passenger experience. Plans include baggage robots that can operate in poor weather conditions, as well as video analytics and artificial intelligence tools that can track aircraft turnarounds to predict potential delays. A turnaround refers to the time between the arrival of an aircraft and its next departure. These technologies are being tested now to prepare for their roll-out when T5 opens, said CAG. Designed to handle about 50 million passengers a year, T5 will effectively double the size of Changi Airport.PHOTOS: CHANGI AIRPORT GROUP
To make it easier for passengers to move around, three automated people-mover systems as well as travelators will reduce walking distances. There will be two people-mover systems within T5 that can connect departing passengers to their gates and arriving passengers to two arrival immigration halls. A third people-mover system will link T5 to T2, facilitating passenger transfers to other terminals. &ldquo Most passengers arriving in Singapore will still be able to hop onto a taxi or the MRT within 30 minutes after leaving the aircraft,&rdquo said CAG chief executive Yam Kum Weng. Meanwhile, transfer passengers at T5 can expect to connect to another flight in less than an hour. &ldquo Faster than Changi today,&rdquo Mr Yam added. Passengers departing from T5 will undergo security checks near their boarding gates at the multiple security screening points for each cluster of gates. This means more flexibility for the airport operator, as it can choose to open or close a particular cluster of gates according to demand, Mr Ong said. T5 will be powered by more clean energy to reduce the airport&rsquo s carbon footprint. Its rooftop solar system &ndash one of Singapore&rsquo s largest &ndash will have the potential to generate enough energy to power up to 20,000 four-room Housing Board flats for a year. It will also be ready to support viable alternative jet fuels, including sustainable aviation fuels. From 2025, all new light vehicles, forklifts and tractors on the airside will be electric, and T5 will be able to support a fully electric airside fleet, CAG said. The airside is the part of the airport beyond passport control, where aircraft operate. Air-sea transfersT5 also offers the prospect of sea connectivity, with its proximity to Tanah Merah Ferry Terminal. This could facilitate air-sea transfers to neighbouring destinations, CAG said. Mr Ong said provisions have been made for possible airside transfers from T5 to the ferry terminal. This means passengers would not have to go through immigration to exit T5 and travel to the ferry terminal. While the team has mulled over this, Mr Ong said these plans are at an early stage. New roads are also being built along the Changi Southern Corridor, which will connect T5 to Tanah Merah Coast Road, the East Coast Parkway and the Pan-Island Expressway. Built to be resilient
CAG said the Changi East development, where T5 is located, is designed to withstand extreme weather and the effects of climate change, such as rising sea levels. The airfield is elevated at 5.5m above sea level, and aircraft taxiways will be sloped to allow rainwater to drain off. The airfield drainage system is designed to manage stormwater during high tide and handle intense rainfall from extreme storms. The operator added that Changi Airport will embark on an airport-wide transformation programme with the aim of &ldquo total airport management&rdquo through the use of intelligent systems and data. Mr Ong said a vacant plot of land between T5 and the Changi East Industrial Zone has been set aside for potential future use. &ldquo We have left the land for an additional satellite terminal, if required&rdquo , which could be used for people or cargo, Mr Ong said. There are no current plans for the use of the land. Plans for the development of Changi East, T5 and a three-runway system were announced in 2013, with land preparation works and planning for T5 starting the following year. The Changi Airport Development Fund was started in 2015 to support the expansion of the airport and construction of T5. So far, the Government has deposited $11 billion into the fund. Mr Ong did not comment on the projected cost of T5, saying only that CAG had worked out &ldquo a viable funding model&rdquo with the Government, and that the total bill of the project would be &ldquo in the tens of billions&rdquo . The pandemic forced a two-year pause on the T5 project from 2020 to 2022, when the terminal&rsquo s design was unveiled as one allowing it to be run as smaller sub-terminals when needed. This means there will be spaces that can be converted into quarantine or testing facilities during pandemics. The airport&rsquo s third runway is expected to be operational by the end of this decade, before T5 opens, said Mr Ong. The Straits Times reported in April that the runway is estimated to start operations in the fourth quarter of 2027.
The Changi East development will include the Changi East Urban District, a business and lifestyle hub next to T5. The Government is helming the concept planning for the district. Changi East will also house the Changi East Industrial Zone, which will almost double the airport&rsquo s annual cargo handling capacity from three million tonnes to 5.4 million tonnes. CAG said passenger traffic post-Covid-19 has rebounded strongly. Changi Airport handled a record 68.4 million passengers for the year ended March 31, 2025. Nearly 100 airlines operate more than 7,200 flights weekly at the airport. It is the fourth-busiest international air hub in the world. In 2024, three of the 10 busiest international flight routes originated or ended in Singapore, and six of the 10 busiest international routes in South-east Asia took off or landed in Singapore. |

For the past few weeks the trading volume in the morning for HL Asia was low. Today' s high trading volume in the first one hour is encouraging. If the volume continues to increase later on there is hope for a rally. For day traders and short term traders it is difficult to make big bucks for HL Asia. |

Hong Leong Asia (HLA), a prominent industrial conglomerate in Singapore, stands to benefit indirectly from the construction of Changi Airport Terminal 5 (T5) through its subsidiaries involved in the building materials sector.
HLA?s Involvement in Construction Materials HLA?s subsidiary, Pan-United Corporation, is Singapore?s largest supplier of ready-mix concrete. Given the scale of the T5 project, which includes extensive substructure and airside infrastructure works, there is a significant demand for concrete. Pan-United?s expertise and capacity position it well to supply materials for such large-scale infrastructure developments.  Additionally, HLA has a strategic stake in BRC Asia, a leading provider of prefabricated steel reinforcement solutions in Singapore. BRC Asia?s products are essential for reinforcing concrete structures, making them integral to major construction projects like T5. Changi Airport Terminal 5 Project Scope The T5 project is part of the broader 1,080-hectare Changi East development, which includes cargo and aviation facilities. The terminal is designed to handle 50 million passengers annually in its initial phase and is expected to open in the mid-2030s. As of May 2025, Changi Airport Group has awarded contracts worth S$4.75 billion (approximately $3.6 billion) for substructure and airside infrastructure works.  Potential Benefits for HLA While HLA may not be directly contracted for the T5 project, its subsidiaries? involvement in supplying essential construction materials positions the company to benefit from the increased demand generated by the terminal?s construction. The scale and complexity of T5 require substantial quantities of concrete and steel reinforcement, areas where Pan-United and BRC Asia specialize. In summary, HLA is poised to gain from the T5 project through its subsidiaries? contributions to the construction materials supply chain, aligning with the company?s strategic focus on infrastructure development in Singapore. |

At the moment, little buying interest, only selling interest. For the next leg up, need some catalyst. Patience required. Let the short term players have their days first. |

BRC Asia reports a 9% y-o-y increase in net profit to S$42.1 million for their 1H25 result Proposes an interim dividend of 6 Singapore cents per ordinary share, translating to 39% dividend payout and 1.9% dividend yield. Bodes well for HLA being a stake holder PDYODD as usual |
