Singapore
COMPANIES in the meetings, incentive travel, conventions and exhibitions (MICE) industry have queried their exclusion from the highest tier of a key support measure in the Resilience Budget.
Under the enhanced Jobs Support Scheme in the support package announced on March 26, the operators of purpose-built MICE venues will receive 75 per cent wage offsets for the first S$4,600 of gross monthly wages for each local employee, the same as companies in the aviation and tourism industries.
