Infocomm output growth eases to 1.8% in Q2

It saw a pull back from the telco segment.

The growth in the information & communications sector eased for the past quarter, the data from the Ministry of Trade and Industry (MTI) showed.

According to MTI, the output growth slowed to 1.8% from 2.1% in the preceding quarter.

This is due to a sharper pullback in the telecommunications segment.

By contrast, the IT & information services segment saw robust growth as a result of strong corporate demand for IT solutions.

Meanwhile, on a quarter-on-quarter seasonally-adjusted annualised basis, the sector grew by 2.2%, moderating from the 7.0% growth in the preceding quarter.

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.
