CrimsonLogicCrimsonLogic CopyrightCopyright 2014 2014 (Private) 14 SINGAPORE’S ECONOMY IN RECESSION Along the way, Singapore’s Economy Suffered Severe Recessions, e.g. 1985. An Economic Committee established to set new directions for the Singapore economy reviewed the reasons for the recession and recommended measures to cut costs, build up Singapore's international competitiveness, alongside longer-term issues like wage flexibility. The economic recovery came in 1986. CrimsonLogicCrimsonLogic CopyrightCopyright 2014 2014 (Private) 15 SINGAPORE’S SINGLE WINDOW - TRADENET® “Opportunities arise in times of crisis. Singapore’s experience in establishing our single window initiative is a testimony to this statement. In 1985, Singapore was hit by a recession.A high-level Economic Committee convened at that time identified improvement in external trade as a major goal and highlighted that use of IT could make a significant contribution to Singapore’s long term competitive position. This report was an important mobilizing factor to the realisation of Singapore’s single window, which was implemented in 1989 under the name of TradeNet. This was the world’s first nationwide electronic single window. After twenty years and many rounds of relentless upgrades, TradeNet remains the key enabler of Singapore’s external trade, which totals nearly 4 times our gross domestic product.” - Extract fro Speech by Mrs Lim Hwee Hua, Minister, Prime Minister’s Office, Second Minister For Finance And Transport APEC Customs – Business Dialogue, 2009 CrimsonLogicCrimsonLogic CopyrightCopyright 2014 2014 (Private) 16 HOW WE STARTED In the mid 80s • Singapore was among the top 20 trading nations in the world • Multiple parties involved – traders, shipping lines, freight forwarders, shipping agents etc. • Required multiple agencies’ endorsement – Trade Development Board, Customs and over 35 Controlling Units • About 10,000 declarations daily in 1987 • 4-20 documents had to be completed for each import/export • All handled MANUALLY CrimsonLogicCrimsonLogic CopyrightCopyright 2014 2014 (Private) 17 INCEPTION • In mid 1980’s - Singapore experienced her 1st recession • Government response - establishment of a high- powered Economic Committee to review the weakness of the Singapore economy and to chart new strategies to improve its economic competitiveness. • One of the recommendations was to expedite the use of IT to improve trade competitiveness. In 1986, Hong Kong, revealed that it was creating a trade system (TradeLink), which strengthened Singapore’s resolve to implement our own TradeNet®. • The Trade Development Board was given the task of mobilizing the trade community and became the coordinating point among various agencies such as Customs and Excise, Port of Singapore Authority, and Civil Aviation Authority of Singapore.
