But staying atop the world ranking of airports, while accommodating surges in passenger numbers, is a huge undertaking.

但是，要在世界機場排名中保持前列，同時又要滿足乘客數量激增的需求，這是一項艱鉅的任務。

So plans to build a fifth mega-terminal, costing more than $8 billion, able to operate even in a pandemic, represents Singapore's determination to cement its place as a regional travel hub, and to make the best airport in the world, even better.

所以建造第五個大型航廈的計劃耗資 80 多億美元，即使在新冠疫情的情況下也能運行，這表明新加坡決心鞏固其作為區域旅遊樞紐的地位，並使世界上最好的機場變得更好。

Air traffic is expected to rise 5% annually in Asia-Pacific, a pace faster than any other region in the world.

The terminal was reimagined as a modular design, able to be split into sub-terminals in varying permutations, such as right down the middle like this, to limit the mixing of air in case of a pandemic.

第五航廈重新設計為模塊化設計，能夠以不同的排列方式拆抽成子航廈，比如像這樣從正中間拆分，以便在發生疫情時限制空氣的混合。
