The state plays an important role in guiding and fostering development of the education sector in the creation and production of human capital for domestic production as well as cross-border trading to generate income and employment, and attract talent to the economy. Regional trading agreements can play a facilitating role for internationalization of higher education services, especially when commitments under the General Agreement on Trade in Services (GATS) are weak. Private education enterprises need no less regulatory measures than other economic sectors to function properly in the market economy—to add value, assure quality services, and yield benefits for education services purchasers.

INTRODUCTION The development history of Singapore’s economy is not long. Before 1960, Singapore was simply a trading post in Southeast Asia for the British Colonial Administration. With the eclipse of the British Empire, and rising fervor for self-government and independence by inhabitants of the island, Singapore was granted self-government in 1959. Following a brief period of amalgamation with Malaysia in 1963, Singapore became an independent sovereign nation on 9 August 1965. Its earlier hope of economic emancipation lay in the adoption of an import substitution strategy supported by a Pan-Malayan market. When separated from Malaysia, the development strategy had to switch to export-oriented industrialization dependent on foreign investment and the world as the hinterland for market, management expertise, and technological know-how. Capitalizing on its strategic geographical location, linking major markets of the Eastern and Western hemispheres, transportation infrastructure (seaports and airports) was built and continuously upgraded to attract shipping lines and airlines, generating excellent connectivity that facilitates trade and investment. Singapore’s economy has evolved from an entrepôt economy in the early 1960s to one that is powered by modern industries such as electronics, chemicals, and pharmaceuticals, and sophisticated service industries in the area of finance, business consultancies, and medical and education services. It is now a hub for many types of economic activities—financial, information technology (IT), medical, electronics, aviation, and education services. Over 4 decades, from 1970 to 2010, the gross domestic product (GDP) at constant prices increased 17 times from S$16,567 million to S$284,561 million. Its per capita GDP on a purchasing power parity (PPP) basis was $59,711 in 2011, ranked third in the International Monetary Fund (IMF) list of countries (IMF 2012). This paper begins with an overview of the policy changes associated with the development of the education sector in Singapore. The education system is of critical importance to the development of the economy as it is the primary conduit through which the country’s human resources are honed and nurtured. Education is an equalizer; attainment of qualifications provides opportunities to fulfill aspirations and achieve emancipation from poverty. This builds cohesiveness in the community, which is essential for national survival. The commoditization of education services forms the basis of an industry that can then become an engine of growth, generating income and employment for the economy. This forms the basis of discussion for the internationalization of educational services, in particular tertiary educational services in section 3. The rationale and proposition of the internationalization of the education sector, and the establishment of Singapore as a Global Schoolhouse, are considered. In section 4, the functions of the General Agreement on Trade in Services (GATS) framework in promoting liberalization trade in services, especially higher education services, is evaluated. Barriers of trade in educational services are also considered in this section. The same section considers the role of regional trading agreements in fostering trade in educational services. The final section concludes with discussion on the implications and lessons

  • One-North Eden 85% Sold During Launch Weekend
    Group Corporate Affairs For Immediate Release One-North Eden 85% Sold During Launch Weekend Singapore, 25 April 2021 – As at 6pm today, One-North Eden saw 140 units (or nearly 85%) of the project’s 165 units snapped up during its virtual launch weekend, April 24 and 25. Developed by TID Pte Ltd, One-North Eden is the first residential launch in the one-north hub in 14 years. Take-up rate was strong across all unit types with the selling price working out to about S$1,800 to S$2,250 per square foot (psf). One-bedroom plus study and two-bedroom units proved the most popular and were quickly sold out at 10am on the first day of launch. Unit sizes range from 517 square feet (sq ft) for a one-bedroom with study to 1,410 sq ft for the largest four-bedroom premium unit. More than 80% of the buyers are Singaporeans while the remaining 20% comprise Permanent Residents and foreigners from the United Kingdom, China, Malaysia, France, India and the United States. Mr Yoichi Kaga, Managing Director of TID Pte. Ltd said, “The good response is an indication of the pent-up demand in one-north due to limited private residential options in this high-growth area. Many homebuyers are drawn to One-North Eden’s strategic location and enjoy the convenience of living near their workplace, while several families are attracted to the prime local and international schools located within 1km of the project.” Mr Kaga added, “Based on overall feedback, our buyers were impressed with the project’s spacious lobby, and particularly the size and functionality of our units as most of them accommodated extra space for a study room, one of the project’s most attractive selling points.

    ON A ROOF GARDEN any great ideas and creations occurred in the most unlikely circumstances – under an apple tree, the back of a napkin or on the rooftop of a grand colonial hotel. The idea of a polytechnic Min Singapore was put into action on a warm August evening in 1951 at the Adelphi Hotel’s roof garden. The ad-hoc committee comprised members from the Singapore Branch of the Technical Association of Malaya who wanted to put earlier informal discussions into action. The economy was growing rapidly and the need for skilled workers was beginning to surface. There were already trade schools but they provided basic technical training which was considered not good enough. The concept of a polytechnic for the training of craftsmen, technicians and engineers attracted the attention of many industry leaders and professionals who extended the scope to architecture, commerce and domestic science. “ Congratulations to Singapore Polytechnic Ten months after the committee’s first meeting, its chairman on reaching this important milestone of and a Legislative Assemblyman, Mr Thio Chan Bee presented a 50 years.
