Singapore is Gateway to China: SIA cannot fly to 3 tourist destinations, Chengdu, Chongqing and Xian.

What's the purpose to have a Gateway with no flights?

Any ideas

The real reason was not given except for “regulatory reasons”.  It was said that this would affect the Chinese Government's efforts to attract foreign investment.

The person pointed out that SilkAir and Singapore Airlines have been operating two routes for many years. There were no interruptions before the epidemic. However, they have been interrupted twice in the past year after the relaxation of prevention and control measures. This may affect the Chinese government’s efforts to attract foreign investment to China to a certain extent. effort. "If we face this kind of uncertainty every aviation season, it will indeed affect the confidence of foreign companies to invest in China."

Wu Shicun, president of the Chongqing branch of the China-Singapore Chamber of Commerce, said in an interview that as various parts of China are currently increasing their efforts to attract investment, the chamber of commerce is expected to arrange for more than a hundred Singaporean small and medium-sized enterprises to come to Chongqing to inspect business opportunities this year. However, he also believes that if the Singapore Airlines flight to Chongqing is interrupted again, it may affect the willingness of some foreign investors to invest in southwest China.

Wu Shicun believes that only if leading Singaporean companies like Singapore Airlines have good development and demonstration in the southwest region, more other Singaporean small and medium-sized enterprises can follow up and invest with confidence.

Only SIA selected and isn't allowed to fly there..

Maybe SIA should tell us something as to why others no cancellation?

Coupled with the recent tightening of anti-gambling regulations from China, gambling-related businesses will be greatly affected.

The ticket price previously $650 can jump to $1,000. China becomes more expensive.

Price increase, SIA will have less load as more people choose the alternatives. Fewer people will travel there.

To travel to China, one can take the plane there and switch to HSR. There is also a price different between Chong Qing and Chengdu. Both are linked by the HSR.

Best places during this time when everyone from all parts of China go there. Very busy and crowded late thru the nights.

SIA desperate to fly there but isn't welcomed at all for the time being.

Be patient and Can wait little longer should be ok

Hong Kong is gateway to China not Singapore. How can Singapore be gateway when it's few thousand km away?  We are gateway to Malaysia maybe.

[WhatDoYouThink!]

So many flights, too competitive

[KILLjoy]

they protect their own once again

unlike shitty singapur

if there is a country to be number 1 in protecting foreigners over citizens

it will be SINGAPUR

I am not sure if Hong Kong has lost its shine.  But when its throne in the financial sector was lost to Singapore, and it being China's bank, if Guangdong was China's factory, I think flights of some variety had taken place.  There's a pun; I was not talking about aeroplanes when I wrote flights but talents, capital, and overall business confidence..

Hong Kong might have been a gateway to China before, but if you are using that to refer to distance rather than access to China's markets, then Hong Kong is only a gateway to Shenzhen and perhaps Guangzhou as well, if you compare Singapore being a "gateway" to JB and perhaps Malacca as well.  That's using distance, as you did.

Hong Kong which is situated at the far southeastern end of China is not near Chengdu which is tucked deep inside China's belly.  There is no reason for international travellers to fly to Hong Kong and transit to Chengdu when they can fly directly there.

Gateway doesn't mean, u can fly there means u r gateway leh. 

[Oyk]

Gateway doesn't mean, u can fly there means u r gateway leh. 

Hahaha.

I wouldn't call either Hong Kong or Singapore a gateways based on distance because both ain't near Chengdu. In fact, Chengdu does not, I am sure, aspire to be gatewayed by another country or Chinese city.  It aspires to be a destination for leisure and investment in its own right.
