THE Philippines is “a very fertile ground” with a lot of potential still waiting to be tapped, and Singapore can play a role in the transformation of its economy, be it in master planning, training, or connecting local companies with global opportunities, said Singapore’s Minister for Foreign Affairs Vivian Balakrishnan. “We are ready to harvest the economic opportunities that the Philippines is on the threshold of exploiting at a grand scale,” he said in a doorstop interview with the Singapore media on Thursday (Apr 18). He was wrapping up a four-day visit to the Philippines from Monday that kicked off the commemoration of 55 years of diplomatic relations between the South-east Asian neighbours.   https://www.businesstimes.com.sg/international/asean/singapore-ready-tap-economic-opportunities-philippines-vivian-balakrishnan (ICE SINGAPORE)
