    Task 13: Identify at least 5 attributes of a global city and discuss the salient point in each attribute.

    Attributes Salient Point

    1. Cosmopolitan Cosmopolitan is a phenomenon most readily


    associated with the global city: large, diverse cities
    attracting people, material and cultural products
    from all over the world.

    2. Post - industrial Singapore became part of the global city


    club with its efficient global transport
    infrastructure and growing professional
    service sector.

    Shanghai considers to have a post-industrial status


    achieved through the conversion of land uses,
    especially from industrial to commercial uses.

    3. The availability of advanced producer services According to Sassen , the availability of advance
    services serves as a hallmark of modern global
    cities, and focuses on four key service sectors:
    accountancy, advertising, banking, and law. The
    presence of these types of services was examined
    in the context of the servicing of world markets
    and via the identification of leading cities providing
    corporate services .

    4. Centers of political influence There is another reason some global cities have
    extensive political influence and that is because
    they are home to regional or global headquarters
    of major international organizations. Paris boasts
    the Organization for Economic Cooperation and
    Development (OECD) and the European
    Headquarters of the World Bank and IMF.

    5. Influential in international political affairs In global city influencial in international political


    affairs serves a subset of the study of international
    relations, and as such, it requires critical thinking
    skills and proficiency in cross-cultural
    communication.
