If the price is right: 71% of employees willing to move abroad

That is of course if they were paid more, amidst pessimistic business outlook for next year.

This is according to the Randstad Workmonitor Report for Q4, which surveyed 405 employees in Singapore.

Randstad Regional Director, Singapore & Malaysia, Ms Karin Clarke, said, “Remaining focused on attracting and keeping top talent should remain a priority for organisations. This may mean reviewing salary and benefits in order to maintain strong and motivated talent to drive growth when the global economy recovers.”

The survey also found that 69% of employees in Singapore expect to have a higher disposable income in 2012 than in 2011, while 71% of Singaporean workers expect to work longer than their official retirement age.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

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.
