COMPETITIVENESS OF THE SINGAPORE ECONOMY
A Strategic Perspective
edited by Toh Mun Heng & Tan Kong Yam (National University of Singapore)
This book provides an intensive review of the economic competitiveness of the Singapore economy and identifies the strategies which will allow the economy to retain its competitive advantage in an increasingly globalised economic environment in future years. It is a timely exercise in view of the fact that the international trading and investment climate has liberalised considerably, and the regional economies are achieving remarkable economic growth and development which begin to challenge Singapore's competitive edge as a regional transportation hub, international financial centre and a primary regional centre for technology and education.
