Wilmar in TALKS to acquire stake in Kencana
Commodities firm Kencana Agri said it was in talks with fellow commodities player Wilmar on a possible investment of a minority stake by the latter in Kencana. Kencana Agri said an announcement would be made as soon as an agreement is reached. The Kencana investment would add to Wilmar’s recent acquisition streak, as chief executive officer Kuok Khoon Hong buys sugar and oleo-chemical businesses in Australia and Malaysia. Wilmar is seeking a 20 per cent stake in Kencana, Kencana has a market value of $349 million. Reuters reported yesterday, citing unidentified people.AGENCIES |

Resorts World cash cow for Genting Singapore SINGAPORE Genting Singapore yesterday said it made a profit of nearly $397 million in the second quarter ended June, a sharp turnaround from the loss of about $51 million in the corresponding period a year ago. Revenue jumped eight-fold in the second quarter to $979 million. Genting Singapore attributed the sharp rise in revenue to the opening of RWS in the first quarter of this year, adding that all major business segments within the resort continued to grow and strengthen. RWS alone recorded revenues of $860.8 million for the quarter, with Universal Studios Singapore reporting a maximum daily capacity of 8,000 and an average visitor spend of $84. RWS said its hotel occupancy rate was at 70 per cent, with an average room rate of $263. Genting Singapore said RWS raised group’s earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation to $514 million, compared to $4 million the year before. RWS, which opened in February this year, is on track to exceeding its 13 million visitor target for the year, the resort operator said. Genting is looking to divest of its 46 casinos in the United Kingdom for ￡340 million ($721 million), pending shareholder approval at its annual general meeting next Wednesday. It wants to focus on its largescale IR operations in Singapore and similar opportunities in the region. — Resorts World Sentosa (RWS), one of two integrated resorts (IRs) here with a casino, is raking in the money for mainboard-listed Genting Singapore. |

10 targets for Inception dream team
mind bender. Few films in recent memory provoked more chatter than this corporate- espionage tale featuring Leonardo DiCaprio implanting an idea into a young billionaire’s head. Extracting thoughts, our dream catchers say, is easy. Introducing them? Not so much. It also is a fascinating exercise in “what if?” Watching it, I wondered about how inception might be employed in Asia. There are many steps that leaders could take to improve the lives of billions and make economies more investor-friendly. Big ideas seem lacking, the challenges are many. Imagine hiring Dom Cobb, the character DiCaprio plays, to plant the seeds of change in the dreams of important people. Were it possible, here are 10 missions we might offer him. The dream thriller Inception is quite theTarget No 1: There are many ideas we could plant in his subconscious: Don’t censor the Internet, stop making fat energy deals with despots around the globe, and reduce currency reserves. Really, isn’t a US$2.5-trillion ($3.4-trillion) currency stockpile a bit ridiculous? The idea I would implant is making green growth the priority. The most populous nation is lagging behind a target for reducing energy use relative to gross domestic product. Expect determination to meet the goal to wane as China focuses on growth. Tomorrow’s sustainability is more important. Mr Hu Jintao, Chinese President.Target No 2: Pssst! Your sons aren’t the answer. Mr Kim’s third son, Jong Un, will soon join the nation’s leadership. Considering the unambiguous disaster the Kim Dynasty has been for North Korea’s 24 million people, this hardly seems the way to go. Mr Kim Jong Il, North Korean leader.Target No 3: Mr Manmohan Singh, India’s Prime Minister.Inception Mr Singh has had such thoughts before. As Finance Minister in the 1990s, he introduced free-market measures that cut red tape, removed state-enforced capacity caps on steel and cement makers and allowed overseas companies, such as Ford Motor Co, to set up business locally. India needs more of this thinking. could focus him on the micro- economy. Gross domestic product has grown almost six-fold since 1991. Yet, India’s leaders seem a bit too impressed with their high growth rates.Target No 4: Visit Hiroshima. Last week marked 65 years since an atomic bomb was dropped on the Japanese city. Mr Obama courted speculation by having Mr John Roos, US ambassador, attend the anniversary. It fit with what may be Mr Obama’s signature achievement: Moving us a step closer to a nuclear-free world. The push needs to come from the nation that created the atomic bomb and used it. Going to Hiroshima would show Mr Obama’s resolve. Mr Barack Obama, United States President.Target No 5: Talk about a guy who doesn’t know when to quit. Almost four years after he was removed in a coup amid corruption allegations, Mr Thaksin continues to rally supporters from exile in swanky resorts around the globe. Here’s a thought: Stay away! Mr Thaksin Shinawatra, former Thai Prime Minister.Target No 6: Just because her predecessor, Mr Kevin Rudd, got grief for a mining-tax plan doesn’t mean it’s wrong. Why shouldn’t all Australians benefit from their natural resources? Mr Rudd’s 40-per-cent tax on “super profits” would help Australia invest in its future. If I could invade Gillard’s dreams, I would tell her, if she wins the Aug 21 election, she should demand billionaire miners share the wealth around more. Ms Julia Gillard, Australian Prime Minister.Target No 7: Foreign investment plunged 81 per cent last year, from 2008, and it’s hardly booming this year. Blame Malaysia’s four-decade old affirmative-action policies that leave the economy uncompetitive. The voice in Mr Najib’s head would say scrap it and bring your nation back into the global economy. Mr Najib Razak, Malaysian Prime Minister.Target No 8: The shock resignations of 25 Philippine Airlines pilots, who left for higher pay abroad, highlight the brain drain afflicting the economy. Excessive population is a key reason why. Let’s give Mr Aquino a mind to take on the church. It muzzles serious discussion of family planning as a means of reducing poverty in the predominantly Roman Catholic nation. Producing more people than good paying jobs is a losing economic model. Mr Benigno Aquino, Philippine President.Target No 9: This one may be as easy as slipping a gas mask over his face as he sleeps. Severe pollution remains a clear and present danger to the city’s status as a global business hub. To Mr Tsang’s subconscious, all I have to say is this: Cough! Cough! Cough! Mr Donald Tsang, Hong Kong chief executive.Target No 10: He can’t revitalise Japan with the bureaucrats who really run the country blocking change. Here’s an idea: A mandatory rotation of responsibilities among government staffers every three years. The longer one stays in a job, the more entrenched their influence becomes and the more skewed their interests become toward their own personal success. In Mr Naoto Kan, Japanese Prime Minister.Inception, DiCaprio’s character tries to persuade the next generation to break up an organisation’s MONOPOLY on power. Japan’s BUREAUCRACY is a good place to start. BloombergThe writer is a Bloomberg News columnist. The opinions expressed are his own. |

The great brain race Education protectionism is as big a mistake as trade protectionism Ben Wildavsky F But there are growing signs that the rest of the world is gaining ground fast — building new universities, improving existing ones, competing hard for the best students and recruiting US-trained PhDs to return home to work in university and industry labs. Is the international scholarly pecking order about to be overturned? There is no question that the academic enterprise has become increasingly global, particularly in the sciences. Nearly three million students now study outside their home countries — a 57-per-cent increase in the last decade. Foreign students now dominate many US doctoral programmes, accounting for 64 per cent of PhDs in computer science, for example. Tsinghua and Peking universities together recently surpassed Berkeley as the top sources of students who go on to earn American PhDs. Faculty are on the move, too. Half of the world’s top physicists no longer work in their native countries. And major institutions such as New York University and the University of Nottingham are creating branch campuses in the Middle East and Asia. There are now 162 satellite campuses worldwide, an increase of 43 per cent in just the past three years. At the same time, growing numbers of traditional source countries for students, from South Korea to Saudi Arabia, are trying to improve both the quantity and quality of their own degrees, engaging in a fierce — and expensive — race to recruit students and create world-class research universities of their own. or decades, research universities in the United States have been universally acknowledged as the world’s leaders in science and engineering, unsurpassed since World War II in the sheer volume and excellence of the scholarship and innovation that they generate.ALARM IN THE WEST All this competition has led to considerable hand-wringing in the West. During a 2008 campaign stop, for instance, then candidate Barack Obama spoke in alarmed tones about the threat that such academic competition poses to US competitiveness. “If we want to keep on building the cars of the future here in America,” he declared, “we can’t afford to see the number of PhDs in engineering climbing in China, South Korea and Japan even as it’s dropped here in America.” Nor are such concerns limited to the US. In some countries, worries about educational competition and brain drains have led to outright academic protectionism. India and China are notorious for the legal and bureaucratic obstacles they place in front of Western universities that want to set up satellite campuses catering to local students. And sometimes students who want to leave face barriers. Several years ago, the president of one of the prestigious Indian Institutes of Technology effectively banned undergraduates from accepting academic or business internships overseas. There are other impediments to global mobility, too, not always explicitly protectionist, but all having the effect of limiting access to universities around the world. In the years following the terrorist attacks of Sept 11, 2001, for example, legitimate security concerns led to enormous student-visa delays and bureaucratic hassles for foreigners aspiring to study in the US. Student numbers have since rebounded despite intermittent problems, but there remain severe limits on work and residency visas, which should serve as an enticement for the best and brightest to study in the US. Perhaps some of the anxiety over the new global academic enterprise is understandable, particularly in a period of massive economic uncertainty. But educational protectionism is as big a mistake as trade protectionism. The globalisation of higher education should be embraced, not feared — including in the US. A FREE TRADE IN MINDS There is every reason to believe that the worldwide competition for human talent, the race to produce innovative research, the push to extend university campuses to multiple countries and the rush to train talented graduates who can strengthen increasingly knowledge-based economies will be good for the US as well. Above all, this is because the expansion of knowledge is not a zero-sum game. More PhD production and burgeoning research in China, for instance, does not take away from America’s store of learning; on the contrary, it enhances what we know and can accomplish. Because knowledge is a public good, intellectual gains by one country often benefit others. Chinese research may well provide the building blocks for innovation by US entrepreneurs — or those from other countries. Indeed, the economic benefits of a global academic culture are significant. Just as free trade provides the lowest-cost goods and services, benefiting both consumers and the most efficient producers, global academic competition is making free movement of people and ideas, on the basis of merit, more and more the norm, with enormously positive consequences for individuals, universities, and countries. Today’s swirling patterns of mobility and knowledge transmission constitute a new kind of free trade: Free trade in minds. The US should respond to the globalisation of higher education not with angst but with a sense of possibility. Neither a gradual erosion in the US market share of students, nor the emergence of ambitious new competitors in Asia, Europe, and the Middle East means that American universities are on an inevitable path to decline. By resisting protectionist barriers at home and abroad, by continuing to recruit and welcome the world’s best students, by sending more students overseas, by fostering cross-national research collaboration, and by strengthening its own research universities, the US can sustain its wellestablished academic excellence while continuing to expand the sum total of global knowledge and prosperity.
