    SPEECH BY DR KOH POH KOON, SENIOR MINISTER OF STATE FOR TRADE AND INDUSTRY, DURING THE COMMITTEE OF SUPPLY DEBATE UNDER HEAD V (MINISTRY OF TRADE AND INDUSTRY) ON MONDAY, 4 MARCH 2019 “Transforming Industries for Future Growth and Workers” Introduction 1. Chairman, Singapore is a small and open economy. To remain globally competitive, we need to transform our industries, and develop new areas of growth. 2. Singaporeans must benefit from the new opportunities that industry transformation brings. We have seen friction and instability arise in other parts of the world, when workers feel that they are left behind. We should learn from these developments, and ensure that both our companies and our workers share the gains from transformation. Transforming our industries 3. Chairman, allow me to provide an update on our ongoing efforts to transform our industries. 4. In the first phase, we have taken a sectoral approach through the 23 Industry Transformation Maps (ITMs) that have been launched. In the next phase, we will be developing synergies across sectors to build and deepen linkages between complementary industries. In this way, industry stakeholders along different parts of the value chain can come together to innovate and ride on market opportunities. 5. This includes strengthening our partnerships with the TACs, which Mr Douglas Foo spoke about, through the Local Enterprise and Association Development, or LEAD, Programme. My colleague SPS Tan Wu Meng will elaborate further in his part of the speech. 6. Our transformation efforts have begun to bear fruit. For example, in line with efforts to strengthen supply chain and logistics capabilities in the Trade & Connectivity Cluster, the Centre of Innovation for Supply Chain Management (COI- SCM) in Republic Polytechnic has rolled out several initiatives.
