As much
of the world is still recovering from the economic recession from a few years
ago, Sukarman Sukamto’s home of Singapore
has been doing very well. Traditionally, Singapore has always had a very
successful economy thanks to tight controls and a well-run government that
balances public needs with private and global business.
Sukarman
Sukamto himself is a prominent Singaporean business tycoon who is involved in
many businesses in the country and abroad. Sukamto Sia has been working in
business for decades and his success reflects the great deal of respect his
colleagues have for him and the expertise he brings to the business table.
His
expertise involves a strong knowledge of the economy in Singapore,
which is a big attraction for businesses all over the world. Despite the global
slowdown affecting many economies very negatively, Singapore has been able to continue
GDP growth in the low percentages year after year. Their banks do not need to
do much stimulus or tweaking of the economy as many other national banks are
doing in the US, Japan, South Korea, and other developed
economies.
Sukamto
Sia is happy that Singapore
has been able to weather the economic downturn in a very positive way. Sure
things slowed down, but the economy in general has been very strong at holding
back the worst of a very serious recession.
This
means that businessmen like Sukarman Sukamto have been able to keep up what
they do best without fear of a total collapse in the economy. This in turn
means that consumer confidence in Singapore is high and that the
economy will ultimately be healthier in the future.
Sukamto
Sia believes the most striking indicator of how strong the Singaporean economy
is the unemployment rate. Believe it or not but the unemployment rate in his
country is actually the lowest it has been in five years!
