SENIOR Minister of State for Trade and Industry Lee Yi Shyan will be in charge of SkillsFuture's outreach to industry associations and businesses, to ensure tie-ups with education and training providers, Deputy Prime Minister Tharman Shanmugaratnam said on Thursday.

This is so that the biggest challenge of SkillsFuture - that of reaching out to businesses, especially small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) - can be tackled, said Mr Tharman, who is also Finance Minister.
