"Singapore is known internationally for its successful economic development. Key to its economic successes is a variety of policies put into place over the past 50 years since its independence. Singapore's Economic Development: Retrospection and Reflections provides a retrospective analysis of independent Singapore's economic development, from the perspective of different policy domains each considered by different expert scholars in that particular field. The book is written by academic economists in a style that is accessible to non-experts. Each chapter includes reviews of past scholarship, current data on each policy area, and reflections on required or desirable future policy changes and outcomes"--

This book provides a comprehensive overview of the economic development of Singapore, easily the leading commercial and financial centre in Southeast Asia throughout the twentieth century. This development has been based on a strategic location at the crossroads of Asia, a free trade economy, and a dynamic entrepreneurial tradition. Initial twentieth-century economic success was linked to a group of legendary Chinese entrepreneurs, but by mid-century independent Singapore looked to multinational enterprise to deliver economic growth. Nonetheless exports of manufactures accounted for only part of Singaporean expansion, and by the 1980s Singapore was a major international financial centre and leading world exporter of commercial services. Throughout this study Dr Huff assesses the interaction of government policy and market forces, and places the transformation of the Singaporean economy in the context of both development theory and experience elsewhere in East Asia.

'. . . serious, useful and interesting volume. It is readable, original, creative and well researched. In analyzing Singapore's experience the author provides a superb case study. Moreover, in providing it, by venturing beyond the narrow confines of his case study Sung also makes points that are pertinent to the efficacy of development processes generally, including in newer, lower income and/or transitional economies. . . this reviewer recommends the book enthusiastically and without reservation.' - Robert L.

The importance of fast economic growth in developing countries has been an undeniable fact since the early 1970s. Today its significance is even greater as these emerging centres are eagerly sought as bases for economic expansion by developed nations. Singapore, in its rise from a struggling colony to its present status as an economic success, offers a glimpse of the factors that contribute to the growth of a thriving economy. Widely acknowledged as the architect of Singapore's economic growth, Dr Goh Keng Swee describes Singapore's experience, which confirms some of the conventional wisdom of growth theory but refutes much of the rest. Examining the social and economic lessons learnt by Singapore, Dr Goh notes that the role of the government and non-economic factors are pivotal to the development of a secure, confident nation. Speaking not as a theoretician, but as a practitioner, Dr Goh assesses how far theories conform with practice in the real world. This book is a collection of Dr Goh's essays during his years as Singapore's Minister of Defence. Besides his speeches on defence, Dr Goh explores sociological and economic issues extensively. These essays illustrate how the experienced practitioner, by venturing beyond the well-trodden paths and overcoming seemingly intractable problems, had helped Singapore achieve the benefits of economic growth and, thereby, a true national unity. This re-issue is part of the Singapore Economics History Collection and features a new Foreword by Professor Chua Beng Huat of National University of Singapore.

'Toward a Better Future' provides a comprehensive analysis of education development in Singapore since 1965, giving particular attention to the strategic management that has enabled Singapore to transform its education and training system from one similar to that of many Sub-Saharan African countries four decades ago into one of the world's best-performing systems. It is one of a pair of concurrently-published books presenting materials originally developed for a 2006 study tour to Singapore and Vietnam for senior education officials from Cameroon, Ethiopia, Ghana, Lesotho, Madagascar, and Mozambique. The second book, 'An African Exploration of the East Asian Education Experience', presents five country studies, as well as regional, comparative analyses highlighting insights gained during the study tour and putting them in the context of Sub-Saharan Africa. Together, the two books aim to foster knowledge exchange between Sub-Saharan African and East Asian countries on good practices in the design and implementation of education policies and programs. By facilitating the cross-country fertilization of ideas between two regions with relatively limited contact in the past, these books fi ll a clear gap in the current literature on development practice in education.

Singapore's fiscal strategies have helped sustain the country's growth as a small and open economy. This book is a pioneering effort in terms of providing a non-technical, holistic view of Singapore's strategies. The author, formerly Director of Fiscal Policy in Singapore's Ministry of Finance and the Principal Private Secretary to the President of Singapore, provides an insider's bird's eye view of how Singapore's fiscal strategies support monetary and economic policies, and address the needs of Singaporeans. The book is structured to explain how the various aspects of Singapore's fiscal policies inter-relate and work together as a functioning system, enabling the small city-state to prosper and progress since its independence in 1965. Besides providing a documentation of the development of Singapore's fiscal strategies over the years, the current and impending national challenges to be addressed by fiscal strategies are also discussed. The author also addresses the importance of culture to a nation's success, and highlights the impact of fiscal policy in this regard.

This book sheds light on two key aspects of Singapore's economic history, namely the relationship between economic instability and growth, as well as the government's fiscal policy towards economic growth.
