Manufacturing PMI rose 1.8 points in February 2011

After retreating for the last two months, manufacturing PMI rose to 52.3.

According to OCBC, PMI was boosted by the pick-up in new export orders (+1 point to 51.1 into expansion territory again), as well as higher overall new orders, production and inventory gauges. The employment and order backlog gauge also both crossed back into expansion territory at 52.5 (+3.1 points) and 54.1 (+6.1 points) respectively, while the input price index surged 2.1 points to 54.7.

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.
