YourSingapore Singapore’s new skyline at dusk. true to YourSingapore’s premise of placing the traveller at the heart of the destination experience, guests could even select a “mood mocktail”, concocted based on how they felt at that point in time, and take a photo against a Singapore skyline backdrop of their choice. Over in the United Kingdom (UK), STB London unveiled the YourSingapore brand to esteemed travel trade partners and national UK media at the cutting-edge restaurant, Sketch. UK television personality Amanda Lamb was the special presenter for the evening and introduced the launch with her own experiences of Singapore. Guests were treated to an experiential evening through activities such as henna tattoos, a fish spa, interactive kiosks with web access, Singapore Sling cocktail-making lessons and a memory corner where traditional Peranakan costumes were available for photo memories. Also giving guests a taste of Singapore was STB Sydney, which launched the destination brand with a specially hosted dinner for key trade and media partners at Tetsuya’s, helmed by Australian celebrity chef Tetsuya Wakuda, who was opening his first restaurant outside Australia at Singapore’s Marina Bay Sands Integrated Resort. In the same vein, YourSingapore was launched at the historic Ch’ien Men 23 in Beijing. Following STB’s introduction of the evolved brand, popular MTV China deejay Zhuzhu gave a demonstration of how to use the YourSingapore website in Mandarin. In Moscow, travel partners and media were introduced to YourSingapore as well as the famed Singapore Sling cocktail and popular Singapore dishes. YourSingapore’s evolved branding and social media strategy has certainly garnered a lot of interest around the world in the country’s multi-varied offerings and rich heritage. Upcoming initiatives, such as the Singapore International Culinary Exchange campaign, will continue to represent Singapore in refreshing and creative ways and showcase the Garden City’s appeal as a top destination for leisure and enjoyment. 28
