Tallest building
In Singapore, 3 buildings share the same name for the tallest building in Singapore, namely UOB Plaza One, Republic Plaza and UOB Centre. These 3 buildings are 280m in height. Can you imagine how tall is that? The Civil Aviation Authority of Singapore only permits the building to be built up to a maximum height of 280m due to aviation reasons. As technology is slowly improving, maybe there would be a higher building in the future!!

The tallest building till now is Burj Dubai. It is 818m in height and has 160 floors. Burj Dubai is normally compared to other buildings and the difference betweent the second tallest and Burj Dubai is around 200m. Imagine the difference! It sure must have a strong foundation. Sometimes i don't understand why the contracters must build the building till so high.
