SINGAPORE must do more to attract global talent, in the face of other markets' moves such as fast-track visa schemes, Minister for Trade and Industry Chan Chun Sing said on Monday at the annual A*Star scholarship awards ceremony.
Noting Hong Kong's Technology Talent Admission Scheme and France's French Tech Visa, revamped to make it easier for startups to get skilled manpower, he said: "We will need to step up to the competition."
