[SINGAPORE] The booming interactive and digital media industry is one that presents many opportunities for Singapore, says Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong.

The value-add of the sector here, now exceeding $2 billion, has grown more than 11/2 times since 2008, and this growth is expected to continue, he said yesterday at the official opening of Sandcrawler, Lucasfilm's new regional headquarters at Fusionopolis.

The California-based company is the world's largest entertainment firm behind movies such as Star Wars and Indiana Jones.
