Services growth peaks

Growth was led by the wholesale and retail trade (18.9%), hotels and restaurants (10.4%) and the other services segment (12.9%), according to DBS.

DBS Group Research said, "The services sector posted a fairly robust growth of 11.2% YoY in 2Q10."

In addition, growth in the "Other Services" segment rose sharply with the Department of Statistics allocating the gaming returns from the new integrated resorts into the said segment.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.


If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
