    THE Singapore government will ensure that the country remains cost-competitive, even with the planned water-tariff hike, said Minister for the Environment and Water Resources Masagos Zulkifli on Wednesday.

    Efforts to enhance water efficiency in the industrial and commercial sectors will be key, he said, because these large users are expected to account for the bulk of the country's growth in demand for water until 2060.
