Founding Patron

Mr Mah Bow Tan
Minister for National Development

The Singapore Green Building Council (SGBC) is privileged and honoured to have Mr Mah Bow Tan, Minister for National Development, as its Founding Patron.

Under his leadership, Singapore has made significant advancements towards the development of a world-class infrastructure, the creation of a vibrant and sustainable living environment, and the building of rooted and cohesive communities. The direction Mr Mah has provided in sustainable development policies has also given great impetus for the development of green buildings in Singapore. As the co-chair of the Inter-Ministerial Committee on Sustainable Development (IMCSD), Mr Mah played an instrumental role in guiding the strategic focus for the 2nd BCA Green Building Masterplan, which has set a target to ‘green’ 80% of all buildings by 2030, and achieve a truly sustainable built environment for Singapore.

Mr Mah’s insights, advice and support are much valued, as the SGBC seeks to raise Singapore’s contribution to a sustainable built environment.
