“The development and growth of Jaipur is a positive sign for attracting investments from Singapore”, Kah Mei Chan, First Secretary (Economics) in the Singapore High Commission
There is a vast scope for tie up in the education sector, with emerging opportunities for exchange programmes and joint ventures between universities and colleges.
International Enterprise-Singapore must be introduced to a greater number of entrepreneurs and partnership of Singapore companies with their Indian counterparts facilitated in the sectors such as real estate, infrastructure, technology business, information & communication technology, lifestyle, education and healthcare.
Ms Chan said that Singapore was focusing on tier-two cities for investments in India; and Jaipur was on the priority list because of its peaceful atmosphere with no security concerns.
It was pointed out that the IE-Singapore encourages big traders across sectors like minerals, metals, agri-commodities, jewellery, textiles, electronics and automotive to set up their regional trading operations in Singapore and increase their cross-border trade.
CII had organised an interactive session with the Singapore representatives on Wednesday, where the participants described Singapore as an important trading partner of India and called upon the IE-Singapore to encourage trading entities to take up regional trading for creation of a substantial export market. This approach would also help improve bilateral relations between the two countries.
