    SINGAPORE aims to create about 25,000 to 40,000 jobs annually over the next three to five years, said Minister for Manpower Lim Swee Say on Wednesday.

    Due to economic restructuring and an ageing workforce, the number of jobs created in the last two years had gone down significantly, he noted.
