Non-oil domestic export may have moderated to 12.3% in February 2011

Export figure is expected to decrease following a robust expansion of 20.8% in the previous month.

According to DBS, seasonal effect, specifically the CNY slowdown in production output is responsible for this pullback.

Though key electronics and pharmaceutical exports appear to be in a soft patch over the last two months, DBS reckons that this will not last for long. Despite the ongoing worries on high oil prices derailing growth, PMIs of key markets have remained in the expansion zone. And recovery in the US is solidifying with increasingly strong consumption data.

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.
