Singapore will continue seeking global integration


SINGAPORE: Singapore should guard itself against nativist tendencies that can harm its potential to boost economic growth and the prosperity of its people, said S Iswaran, Communications and Information Minister and Minister-in-charge of Trade Relations.

He said in spite of the coronavirus-induced recession, the Republic should continue to persevere with its strategy of global integration - supported by free trade agreements (FTAs) and digital economy agreements (DEA) - that help companies grow and create jobs for Singaporeans.
