Head of Drew & Napier’s Construction & Engineering Practice, Christopher Chong, Director Kelvin Teo and Senior Associate Dinesh Kalaichelvan co-authored the Singapore chapter of Lexology Panoramic: Construction 2027.

The Lexology Panoramic Construction Guide provides a panoramic view of how laws and regulations vary across jurisdictions, with contributions from experts who are recognised as the world's foremost construction law practitioners.

The Singapore Construction 2027 chapter provides, in a practical Q&A format, an overview of the legal and contractual landscape governing Singapore’s built environment industry. Designed as a comparative reference tool for regional industry players and in-house counsel, it examines key areas including market entry by foreign participants, licensing and regulatory compliance, construction standard forms, insurance arrangements, joint ventures, tortious liability and indemnities, labour issues, project suspension and termination, payment entitlements, force majeure, dispute resolution, and also considerations such as competition and anti-corruption laws, PPP and PFI projects, environmental regulation, applicable investment and tax treaties, and restrictions on the repatriation of revenues. The chapter also considers significant emerging trends and hot topics shaping the industry.
