The 2.7% Temasek bonds were issued back in Oct 2018, when 5-year SGS interest rates were ~2.3%
Currently 5-year SGS rates are ~1.45%, so 1.8% is pretty much around expectation if you understand how bonds work.
For the record, I am in the fund asset industry. I definitely know how bonds works. Just because SGS rates are at 1.45% it means i should rush for 1.8%?

SO does that mean if we are in a negative interest rate env, an issuer issued bonds at 0.0% it should be oversubscribed?

There are way better ways to work my money

If u know what i mean

It's strange to see someone in the "fund asset industry" that don't understand "what is the draw in here".
Just because you think that a particular investment is not suitable for you does not mean it is not suitable for anyone else. Different people and entities have different needs.

There is always going to be a demand for bonds. There is obviously a lot of confidence in the credit rating of TH (AAA from both Moody's and S&P), so these yields are good for the credit rating in the current interest rate environment.

Yes. if interest rate is expected to drop further.

Negative interest rate can become more negative. The zero coupond bond will increase in price when that happens.

haha, i did not know that all Fund Managers will be agreeing with the draw here. Apologies, maybe the years of experience under my belt still insufficient.
