THE Republic is still a good place to invest in, said a senior executive of ExxonMobil, as the firm broke ground for two plants that would make Singapore its largest specialty chemicals manufacturing site in the world.
"In the past 10 years we've invested more into Singapore than any other location in the world, and that speaks of our confidence in this country and this region," said ExxonMobil Chemical senior vice-president Neil Chapman, who is responsible for the firm's global polymer business and oversees its marketing, sales, customer service and supply chain activities.
