In Singapore, we dun need no education leh

Spending on education slumped 11.5 % over the last year, according the boffins at the Statistics department.

According to the Department of Statistics, a few services industries experienced double-digit growth in first quarter 2011, including recreation & personal services (36.9%), health & social services (15.2%) and financial & insurance services (12.6%).

All the other services industries except education experienced turnover growths of between 4.9% and 7.0%.

Overall business receipts jumped 8.2% in the first quarter compared to the same period in 2010.

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
