    THE Philippines is both one of Asia's fastest growing economies and a newly industrialised country, and there is "great potential" for Singapore to further two-way trade and investment in the coming years.

    Singapore Business Federation (SBF) chairman Teo Siong Seng made this point on Friday shortly before he led a group of Singapore business leaders to meet visiting Philippines President Rodrigo Duterte.
