Review
The 22 companies featured in this informative and insightful book are some of those that stand out in the Singapore corporate scene. They are relatively large, established businesses with experienced management and strong track records of growth and profitability. Their profiles and success stories, taken together, form a formidable tome for anyone with interest in the Singapore business scene. This is a book for businessmen as well as investors: big and small; casual and professional. I hope you would enjoy and gain from it. --Mano Sabnani, CEO, Rafflesia Holdings Pte Ltd, Singapore
Well done on a well-constructed book and you have clearly put a lot of effort into this project. Overall I believe that this is a well-crafted and thoughtful addition to the guides available to investing in Asia, and Singapore in particular. There is sufficient detail and insight to engage with an audience that includes both professional and personal investors. It also provides a credible history of the companies profiled and places these in an overall context of Singapore's remarkable economic development. I particularly appreciate the breadth of the companies included and the grouping of these companies according to industrial sector. At the same time, you have highlighted the differences within sector so that investors can understand the idiosyncratic aspects of each opportunity. Rather than gloss over the challenges that many of these companies face, you have highlighted the current difficulties resulting from cyclicality and global factors. You also identify limitations due to local factors. This adds to the credibility of the review and presents a platform of opinion that will serve investors well in the future. --Mark Konyn, Group Chief Investment Officer, AIA Group
