About the Singapore – Hong Kong Rivalry, literary edition

An article recently published in the South China Morning Post takes to the literary realm the renown Singapore-Hong Kong rivalry for preeminence among Asian global cities. The author —who attended the presentation of Tales of Two Cities at the Ubud Writers Festival— mentions the book, the Singapore Writers Group, the Hong Kong Writers Circle, and also quotes a few book contributors, myself included, in said article, titled ‘The Hong Kong-Singapore rivalry: Forget finance and shopping, is literature next?’ I share the link here.
