2 Singapore’s development direction (time advantage and leadership advantage)

2新加坡的发展方向(时间优势和领导优势)

The best thing about Singapore is that it has found its own direction and can find different directions at different stages. China has a saying called “time advantage, geographical advantage, leadership advantage”, and Singapore has achieved it. If Singapore’s geographical location is a “geographical advantage”, then Singapore’s leaders are a “leadership advantage” and different historical stages are a “time advantage”.

新加坡最好的一点是，它找到了自己的发展方向，在不同的阶段可以找到不同的方向。中国有句话叫“时间优势、地理优势、领导优势”，新加坡做到了。如果新加坡的地理位置属于“地理优势”，那么新加坡的领导者是“领导优势”，不同的历史阶段是“时间优势”。

In October 1968, Texas Instruments began investing, followed by the National Semiconductor Plant. Then Texas Instruments’ rival Hewlett-Packard decided to start manufacturing in Singapore. Other electronics companies in the United States followed suit. American multinationals have laid the foundation for Singapore’s high-tech electronics industry. The electronics industry not only solved the problem of unemployment, but also enabled Singapore to become a major exporter of electronics in the 1980s.

In 1975, Singapore’s industry overtook trade as the largest component of the economy for the first time.

1975年，新加坡的工业首次超过贸易，成为经济的最大组成部分。
