Non-oil domestic export to ease at 10% in 2011

Ongoing Eurozone debt crisis and the lacklustre US labor market are expected to hinder the growth of Singapore's non-oil domestic export, OCBC said.

From the 24% growth y-o-y in 2010, NODX is expected to drop at around 10% this year. Manufacturing growth is also expected to drop to a single-digit growth from the strong 30% y-o-y growth in 2010. The high 2010 base and the inherent volatility in the pharmaceutical industry is foreseen to affect the growth of the manufacturing sector.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.


The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.


So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
