[11:01 am, 20/11/2020] +: π’ Topic π’
A new "start-up" approach adopted by public agencies and the private sector working together on initiatives to drive economic growth may soon become the norm, with the Government keen on making this new agile way of collaboration more widespread.
π¬ How can we motivate more partnerships between public and private sectors?
Members of the Emerging Stronger Taskforce (EST), convened in May to help chart a vision for the country and its industries in a post-Covid-19 world, said on Thursday (Nov 19) that this approach has seen the public and private sectors working alongside each other as partners - rather than as regulators and the regulated.
"In keeping with the spirit of Singapore Together, these efforts are led by industry leaders, working in close partnerships," said Deputy Prime Minister Heng Swee Keat, referring to the movement he and his fourth-generation colleagues launched last year to give citizens a bigger say in making and executing policies.
The approach taken by the Singapore Together Alliances for Action - industry-led coalitions formed under the task force - has born fruit in the ideas and models that have come up in the past four months.

[11:17 am, 20/11/2020] +: Competition watchdog lifts measures on Grab as private-hire regulatory framework takes effect
The Competition and Consumer Commission of Singapore (CCCS) has lifted the measures it imposed on Grab in September 2018 over its merger with Uber.
This comes after Singapore’s new point-to-point (P2P) transport regulatory framework came into effect on Oct 30, the watchdog said in a media release on Friday (Nov 20).
Parliament passed the P2P Passenger Transport Industry Bill in August last year, which requires all ride-hail and street-hail service providers with a fleet size of more than 800 vehicles to be licensed.

New Asean network to build logistics infrastructure
MONDAY, NOVEMBER 16, 2020 - 14:42
MINDY TAN
SINGAPORE logistics firm YCH Group is joining forces with VIetnam's T&T Group to lead the first project of the Asean Smart Logistics Network (ASLN).
The ASLN is a new collaborative platform with a shared goal of smart and sustainable growth based on smart logistics infrastructure. Its aim is to support the Asean Connectivity Master Plan 2025. The network aims to achieve a seamless and comprehensively connected and integrated Asean that will promote competitiveness and inclusiveness.
The platform was launched on Saturday by Singapore Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong and Minister for Trade and Industry Chan Chun Sing, both of whom attended virtually. Vietnamese Prime Minister Nguyen Xuan Phuc, and Deputy Prime Minister Pham Binh Minh, together with other Vietnamese government officials, dignitaries, and business leaders of domestic and foreign trade associations attended the hybrid launch event on-site in Hanoi, Vietnam.The launch event is part of the agenda for the 37th Asean Summit that is held from Nov 12 to Nov 15 in Hanoi.
The network's first project, the Vinh Phuc Inland Container Depot Logistics Centre (SuperPort) will be a first of its kind, multi-modal logistics hub integrating dry port and advanced supply chain nerve centre operation that focuses on four key pillars: connectivity, sustainability, scalability, and agility, said YCH in a statement. It will demonstrate the advantages of multi-modal transportation through its road, rail, air and sea linkages, with road and rail linking China’s Yunnan province, Kunming city, to Hanoi city and eventually ends at Hai Phong international port. ------- This will be link to Singapore maritime port hub.
PM Lee noted that the SuperPort project - the largest logistics development by a Singapore firm in Vietnam - will provide crucial infrastructure support for Vietnam's growing exports and contribute to its human resource development goals.

Solution - 3 steps process
(1) Plug nodes into critical market and ports - through joint projects, investments, joint ventures, industrial park, joint R&D etc. Eg. Chongqing CCI, Greater Bay Area in Guangdong and HK ports, Shanghai ports in Yangtze Delta, Vietnam ports, ASEAN ports, Indonesia ports, Australia ports, New Zealand ports, India ports etc ---- will be critical for us to link all them up by "smart precise investment and joint projects".
(2) Build virtual connectivity via Digitial Economy, market access, friendship, business contact, trade deals and agreements, trade, business, travel etc. ASEAN centrality, RCEP, CPTPP, BRI, Singapore FTA with India, Australia, New Zealand, Singapore FTA with China, Singapore FTA with Russia etc.
(3) Build up critical cores of port facilities, warehousing, logistic chain, transport connectivity, port-of-call, bunker facilities, all-in-one services, MRO etc - and link up with Step 1 and Step 2. ---- as well as with our FTA with EU, US, Africa, India, Russia, Africa etc ---- that will ensure they will ply into Singapore ports.
Solutions to Problem 2-
This is called :-
第δΊζ - θ²ζ―η©Ί，η©Ίζ―θ²。
- build physical nodes, and achieve integration with virtual connectivity and integration,
- through virtual connectivity - build physical maritime routes and physical connectivity back to Singapore ports.

This article confirm that geoblocking is ineffective against VPN or SSL VPN.
Geoblocking ineffective and can be evaded by VPN and SSL VPN.
VPN encrypt the whole payload and insert dummy IP source and destination that can evade the blacklist and whitelist - rendering geoblocking ineffective.
VPN encryption take place in layer 3 and form encrypted tunnel.
How can content blocking happen at layer 7 check layer 3 encryption?

Many foreign investors in China need to access foreign website to do their business
Singapore got so many Singaporean investors in China, if they can't use VPN to access Singapore website - how to do business?
Hence VPN is implicitly allow for foreigners in China.
Firewalls can block VPN port - but it means all legitimate encrypted traffic cannot pass through - which translates to a denial of service.
No technology can crack the VPN encryption key which can be 256 or 1024 bits - to do deep inspection of the contents in the encrypted payload.
So VPN is still the means to access foreign website in China - never mind geoblocking, or other content checking which is ineffective against VPN.
This is to close the loop on the discussion of this issue.

How to motivate more partnership between public and private sector:-
1. Identify the respective business association to work with the respective Ministries - by appointing Minister or MOS in partnership to transform business, identify growth area and help to bolster growth, venture into overseas markets via RCEP, cptpp, and other FTA.
2. Follow through the armbit of ITM in the respective industry sector.

ITM (Industry Transformatiom Map) can indeed solve the income inequality, job problem arising from disruptive tech to transform business and train workers that will avoid the problem caused by Globalisation and Free Trade.
It is an antidote to the currect economic system face by the whole World.

(1) Industry Transformation Map (ITM)
- Idea is posted in 2012 to tackle disruptive tech and is adopted by the Government feature in Budget 2016.
- Now this idea is used in 23 industries where 15 industries led by one Minister-of-State have undergone transformation and has start to reap positive outcome - as a good number of companies have start to reap growth and profit through the newly transformed business.

Subject: REACH RWEB Submission: Govt agenices working with industries to devise prodictivity figures
To elaborate further :-
(1) Ministry of Comm and iDA – should work with IT industries, foreign IT MNCs, local IT vendors etc to devise objective, tangible KPI productive figures in each technology areas and skillsets vis-Γ -vis global competition and regional competition – so that IT business and IT workers can target to meet the KPI productivity figures – and peg wage growth in % term and/or absolute term to the productivity figures and business profitability. Communicate this to the IT industries, business, IT workers, Union and schools. Make sure we are competitive with our global competitors and regional competitors.
(2) SLA should do the same with construction sector.
(3) Ministry of Finanace and MAS should work with the banking and financial sector. etc

That is, the concept above is how to transform Singapore Economy in 2016 - sector-by-sector (conceptualising the KPI for each sector) ---- and using targeted approach to transform each sector, each industry one by one.
Only then productivity in each sector, in each industry can be successfully transformed - supported by empirical, scientific measures.
Good that after 4 years --- the idea is taken up.

Increasingly, we should focus on "Services" as the Engine for Growth. This focus will help to chart, foster, grow, expand and export "Services" - as our Growth Engine --- that will transcend and go beyond the constraint of "Physical Boundary". Reply
ricky l ricky l 11 seconds ago
Services for growth will be able to create, penetrate and foster "virtual connectivity, virtual penetration, virtual community, virtual marketplace, virtual trading, virtual exchange, virtual finances, virtual currency" etc ---- transcending "physical boundary, physical constraint, physical restraint" ---- and complete transaction in real-time, online and at break-neck speed. This means more jobs will created for PMETs - where the percentage of PMETs have increased from 10% to the future of 40% or more. This will decrease the manufacturing contribution to the Economy. In addition, SMEs will also increasingly leverage on the "Service Economy" to grow their business and rely on robotics, automation. All this will help to transcend Singapore's constraint of "Physical Boundary" - by going "Virtual" - where the "boundary is limitless - the Globe". See less
ricky l ricky l now If Singapore is able to do this and succeed, Singapore has reached "Nirvanic Economy" - the State of Nirvana - boundless. borderless, virtual, limitless........ r
icky l ricky l 10 seconds ago And for Singapore, the "Globe will be Our Marketplace - with no Boundary" - this should be our focus of "Service Engine for Growth". We should explore, open up and penetrate "New and unchartered market" as well - as physical boundary is no longer a constraint.
ricky l ricky l now Through the "Service Sector" ---- we will then attract and draw the "Physical connectivity" back to Singapore - and grow our manufacturing and other physical sectors and industries. This will be the reverse grow - to overcome our "physical constraint". ricky l ricky l now It is thus important for Singapore to maintain good relationship with many and if possible every Countries in the World.
ricky l ricky l 11 seconds ago Singapore have managed to grow our "Service Sector" to contribute 25% to the Economy. With increased focus, the target is to grow it to 50% of the Economy ---- that will effectively cover the loss in "Manufacturing sector" and "SME sector - that is not able to grow with no corresponding grow in manpower". PMETs will grow in importance and can grow in number - and contribute to more middle-top income earners.
ricky l ricky l 2 seconds ago Specifically, this "Service Engine" for growth as our Future Economy - should be the "Digital Economy".
ricky l ricky l 11 seconds ago Where this Digital Economy should pervade every sectors of the Economy :-
Be it :-
(1) IT sector
(2) Transport sector
(3) Finance, Banking and Insurance sector
(4) Logistics sector
(5) Manufacturing sector
(6) SME sector
(7) Hospitality sector
(8) Food and Beverage sector
(9) Gaming sector
(10) Healthcare sector
(11) Aerospace sector
(12) Construction sector
(13) Trade, ports sector etc
ricky l ricky l 2 seconds ago Imagine if Digital Economy can contribute 25 to 50% in each industry sector - we can grow and replace our traditional Economy sector phenomenally - from a $400 billion GDP to $600 billion GDP. And create many PMETs jobs - which have been expanding from 10% to 40% - and can still expand further with Digital Economy. This will create many more middle income earners and top middle income earners - if Singapore succeed. The future for our descendants and future generations will be bright.
ricky l ricky l 2 seconds ago
Our current Digital exploitation is still not deepen and expanded in scope. If we succeed in deepening and expanding Digital exploitation into a full-fledged Digital Economy in every sector of our Economy - our Future Growth will be very bright.

For eg. deepening and expanding Digital Economy to support traditional model in each industry sectors include :-
(1) Manufacturing sector - more pervasive used of robotics, IoT, nanotech, 3D printing etc
(2) Finance, Banking, Insurance sector - more pervasive used of Fintech, mobile banking, online banking etc
(3) IT industry sector - IoT, Big Data, Meta Data Analytics, CyberSecurity, Cloud, etc
(4) SME sector - online shopping, mobile shopping etc
(5) Construction sector - 3D printing, robotics, etc (6) Transport sector - Driverless, online booking, tracking, scheduling, IoT, etc
(7) Food & Beverages - automation, robotics, online ordering etc
ricky l 0 seconds ago
The industry mention above is not limited and should be expanded to all industry sectors as possible.
For eg.
(8) Gaming sector - online gaming, mobile gaming, virtual reality etc.
(9) Logistics sector - online scheduling, tracking, etc.
(10) Trade and Business sector - online registration, LC, banking facilitation, online information and aiding of trade facilitation etc.
he Digital Economy will have the benefit of transcending our "small physical constraints, physical boundary, physical size".
And by empirical data, Digital Economy should bring in another 25% to 50% more to the Economy. In fact in some sector, it can bring in as much as 94% and more. So Singapore Future Economy is bright.
ricky l 0 seconds ago
In every industry sectors, they should be make up of 2 categories :-
(1) Traditional industry - this will keep traditional workers - blue collar workers and white collars workers - to maintain their traditional business
(2) Digital industry - this will be the up and growing category - where blue collar workers and PMETs are trained and armed with new technologies, mindsets, innovation, creativity to transform Traditional Industry into a Digital Economy for their business.
Digital Industry - will go beyond traditional boundary - and will transcend border, virtual, limitless, borderless.
And Digital Industry growth cn be phenomenal - as it will have the reach that go beyond National boundary.
It can go regional and global - without some investment. Both Traditional + Digital - become the Nirvanic Economy (Physical + Virtual).
ricky l 1 second ago
Having say so, cyber-security will become increasingly important because IT infrastructure will increasingly become the backbone of our Future Economy.
