The tripartite way to beat economic blues

Singapore

AHEAD of May Day, Manpower Minister Lim Swee Say and Singapore National Employers Federation (SNEF) president Robert Yap on Wednesday separately called on labour, employers and the government to work together to pull Singapore out of the current economic funk and give the sluggish productivity movement an extra push.

Reminding the three parties that they have got Singapore out of economic slumps in the past - and emerged stronger - Mr Lim in his May Day Message said: "I believe we can do it again."
